In May of 2002, a St. Louis reporter received a letter with a map marked with an X and a chilling message: "To prove I'm real, here's directions to number seventeen." The map leads police to a body. And one digital mistake exposed a killer's darkest secrets. Between 2000 and 2002, at least twelve women vanished from the streets of St. Louis, their deaths barely noticed by a society that had already dismissed them. What investigators found in a suburban basement would out one of the most disturbing serial killers in American history.Sources:https://www.stltoday.com/ (Main site - archival articles from 2002)https://www.nytimes.com/2002/06/11/us/internet-used-to-find-man-who-is-charged-in-2-of-10-killings.htmlhttps://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-2002-jun-17-na-serial17-story.htmlhttps://abcnews.go.com/Primetime/story?id=132005&page=1 (Serial Killer's Home Movies)https://abcnews.go.com/US/woman-found-serial-killer-lived-home-watching-tv/story?id=24467447https://www.bnd.com/news/local/crime/article311186715.htmlhttps://fox2now.com/news/true-crime/serial-killer-maury-travis-the-street-walker-strangler/https://www.semissourian.com/story/77256.htmlForensic Files: "X Marks the Spot" (Season 7, Episode 35) - Available on streaming platformsCold Case Files: "A Map to Murder" (Season 2, Episode 19) - Originally aired on A&EEvil, I: "Hell's Basement" episodeUnknown Serial Killers of America (2025)https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maury_Travishttps://web.archive.org/web/20120509185024/http://www.trutv.com/library/crime/criminal_mind/forensics/vernon_geberth/12.htmlhttps://www.fbi.gov/https://isp.illinois.gov/https://www.slmpd.org/https://nij.ojp.gov/topics/forensics/digital-evidencehttps://dnadoeproject.org/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/reverie-true-crime--4442888/support.Keep In Touch:Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/reveriecrimepodInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/reverietruecrimeTumblr: https://reverietruecrimepodcast.tumblr.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/reverietruecrimeContact: ReverieTrueCrime@gmail.com Intro & Outro by Jahred Gomes: https://www.instagram.com/jahredgomes_official 

Jeffrey Epstein's non-prosecution agreement (NPA) in 2008 was nothing short of a golden ticket to freedom—a secret, backroom deal that shredded every notion of justice. Brokered by then–U.S. Attorney Alex Acosta, the agreement effectively shut down a federal investigation that had uncovered dozens of victims, some as young as fourteen. Instead of facing life in prison for trafficking minors, Epstein received an absurdly lenient sentence: eighteen months in a county jail, with work-release privileges that let him leave six days a week. The NPA not only shielded Epstein but also granted immunity to his unnamed “co-conspirators,” protecting a network of powerful individuals who may have helped facilitate or benefited from his crimes. It was a blatant perversion of justice, a deal that only someone with deep connections and untold influence could have secured.What made the NPA so egregious wasn't just its leniency—it was the secrecy surrounding it. Victims were kept completely in the dark, violating their rights under federal law, while prosecutors quietly closed the case and moved on. Epstein's lawyers, including some of the most connected figures in America, strong-armed the government into compliance, using political pressure and backroom influence to bury the truth. The result was a grotesque miscarriage of justice that allowed Epstein to continue his predatory behavior for another decade. The NPA became a symbol of the two-tiered legal system—one for the powerful and one for everyone else—and a damning reminder that when corruption and cowardice meet, monsters walk free.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

We start with some big chicken news from Joe! Dave's story is on Meta's internal documents revealing it projected up to 10% of its 2024 revenue, worth billions, would come from fraudulent or banned ads across its platforms. Maria has the story on how Howler Cell at Cyderes uncovered a systemic “Bring Your Own Updates” risk in Windows updaters, where attackers can hijack trusted, signed update clients like Advanced Installer to deliver malicious code that evades detection and could lead to large-scale supply-chain attacks. Joe has the story on a new scam called “ghost tapping,” where fraudsters use near-field communication devices to secretly charge tap-to-pay cards and mobile wallets in crowded places. Victims often don't notice until small, unauthorized withdrawals add up, prompting the BBB to warn consumers to use RFID-blocking wallets, verify charges before tapping, and monitor accounts for suspicious activity. Our catch of the day is on an application to the Council of the Ecliptic.

The Palisades and Eaton fires are a sober reminder of just how flammable many urban and suburban homes are. Some survivors are responding by planning to build differently. Instead of the usual wood framing, these homeowners are opting to choose a material many of us associate more with freeways and skyscrapers - concrete. Reporter: David Wagner, LAist Many survivors of this year's Los Angeles County fires are calling for the resignation of State Insurance Commissioner Ricardo Lara. Members of the grassroots organization Eaton Fire Survivor Network say the recovery process is moving too slowly, in large part because of the insurance industry. Learn more about your ad choices.

The book Relentless Pursuit: My Fight for the Victims of Jeffrey Epstein by Bradley J. Edwards (co-written with Brittany Henderson) tells the story of how Edwards, a Florida-based victims' rights attorney, took on the case against Jeffrey Epstein—beginning when a teenage survivor named Courtney Wild came to him in 2008 claiming abuse by Epstein. Edging into a legal fight that spanned more than a decade, Edwards details how Epstein's network of exploitation didn't just depend on his own wealth and power, but on a corrupt system of defeasance, secret deals and powerful enablers.In the book, Edwards lays bare how the infamous 2008 non-prosecution agreement, how Epstein operated largely unchallenged for years, and how survivors fought to hold both Epstein and his enablers accountable. He recounts the legal battles, the intimidation, the sealed plea deals, and the resilience of survivors demanding justice. Along the way he also shines light on Ghislaine Maxwell's shadowy role, how Epstein's social circles converged with elite power, and how the system was repeatedly manipulated to shield him—making the book much more than a courtroom memoir, but a deep dive into systemic failure.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

What happens when two teenage survivors watch the court set their attacker free? In the case of Jesse Mack Butler, charged with eleven felonies — including rape, strangulation, and assault — the answer is unthinkable: one year of supervision, zero prison time, and a wiped record. In this powerful interview, Tony Brueski and psychotherapist Shavaun Scott break down the psychology of protection — from parental denial to systemic apathy. They explore how communities normalize violence, how judges mistake privilege for potential, and how survivors carry the trauma of a system that refused to protect them. This isn't about one case — it's about what happens when justice becomes an accomplice. #HiddenKillersPodcast #JesseButlerCase #JusticeFailed #PsychologicalAnalysis #ShavaunScott #SurvivorVoices #TraumaInformed #TrueCrimeCommentary #HiddenKillersLive #SystemicInjustice Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Two cases. Two very different crimes. One system that failed both sets of victims. In this Hidden Killers double feature, Tony Brueski, Stacy Cole, and Todd Michaels sit down with defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis to unpack two stories that expose the cracks in American justice — one soaked in leniency, the other in cruelty. First: Jesse Mack Butler. Eleven felony charges. Two teenage girls. One nearly strangled to death. Video evidence. Doctors saying seconds more and she'd be gone. Yet somehow, Stillwater, Oklahoma's court system gave him a second chance — turning seventy-eight years of possible prison time into one year of supervision under the Youthful Offender statute. Eric and Tony dig into how the legal definition of “youth” became a shield for violence, how privilege masqueraded as compassion, and how prosecutors and judges rationalized a decision that left two survivors behind. Then: Susan Lorincz.  The Florida woman convicted of shooting Ajike “AJ” Owens through a locked door — killing the mother of four in front of her children. From prison, Lorincz has now written a four-page letter threatening to sue Owens's children and mother for defamation — accusing them of trespassing, lying, and “ruining her reputation.” Tony and Eric expose the psychological rot behind that letter — how denial becomes control, how narcissism replaces remorse, and how the legal system still lets killers weaponize paperwork against the families they destroyed. Two stories. Same disease. A justice system too soft on those who harm and too silent for those who suffer.

The Context of White Supremacy hosts the weekly summit on Neutralizing Workplace Racism 11/06/25. In the United States, we're nearly 40 days into the so-called government shutdown. Gus T. is tragically certain that the White-people-imposed stoppage will continue until the end of 2025. Sen. James Lankford says federal workers could lose health care coverage if the "shutdown" continues. Gus encourages Victims of White Supremacy to remember the words of Neely Fuller Jr.: "White People do not get fired. They get transferred." Even the Whites who get furloughed have White parents and White siblings and White friends and White strangers who can assist them while working to maintain the System of White Supremacy. Tragiclly, we heard black federal employees sadly proclaim that they thought they had "made it" when Whites allowed them to have federal employment. Now that Whites have taken their prestigious jobs back, black workers express feeling traumatized and emotionally devastated. #NoPoliticsOnTheJob #EndStageWhiteSupremacy INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE 564943#

Raja Miah discusses his activism against grooming gangs in Oldham, stemming from a personal commitment to child safety. With 25 years in public service, Miah reveals the challenges he faced in exposing a convicted sex offender at the local mosque, highlighting political resistance and threats from local gangs. He critiques both the Labour and Conservative parties for neglecting the needs of working-class communities and calls for an independent public inquiry to address systemic failures. Miah emphasizes the need for community action and political accountability to protect vulnerable children from abuse.

Despite receiving “five figures” to his bank account in jail awaiting his trial, after pleading guilty in a plea deal that provided restitution to his victims, the convicted murderer Bryan Kohberger now wants to bargain for the lowest possible pay out to the family of the victims he slaughtered. Let's take a look at today's enraging hearing. This hearing brought into focus how murderers game the system and profit off their crimes at the expense not benefit to their victims.

Three years after Jeffrey Epstein's death inside the Metropolitan Correctional Center, the public was still left in the dark. The Department of Justice's Inspector General had yet to release a full report, and most of the internal findings remained sealed or redacted. The official story — suicide by hanging — was backed by the New York City Medical Examiner, but contradicted by independent forensic experts like Dr. Michael Baden, who found Epstein's neck injuries to be “more consistent with strangulation than hanging.” Meanwhile, crucial evidence went missing or malfunctioned: security cameras outside his cell failed, logs were falsified, and the two guards on duty admitted to sleeping and browsing the internet instead of checking on him. No clear timeline of his final hours has ever been publicly established. For a man under the government's watch in one of the most secure facilities in America, the lack of transparency was staggering — and it left even the most rational observers suspicious.By the third anniversary of his death, the unanswered questions had hardened into national cynicism. The phrase “Epstein didn't kill himself” became a cultural punchline, a shorthand for public mistrust of institutions. Federal officials insisted accountability had been taken — the guards were charged and later released after a plea deal, and the prison itself was slated for closure — yet the broader inquiry into systemic negligence vanished from public view. Victims received settlements, but no comprehensive investigation ever detailed who enabled Epstein's empire, who protected him, or what really happened inside that cell. The silence from the Justice Department only deepened the perception that some secrets were too big to expose.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

In this powerful episode of Banking on Fraudology, Hailey Windham sits down with Kathy Stokes, Director of Fraud Prevention Programs at AARP, a nationally recognized leader in consumer protection and elder fraud prevention. The conversation dives deep into Stokes's foundational statement: "We need to talk about victims in order to talk about the fraud as a crime". They explore why language is the single most critical tool in the fight against financial crime and how the words we choose can either help or harm. Key Takeaways:- Calling it a Crime: Stokes explains that financial fraud must be viewed as a crime, not as a mistake by the person who experienced it, which helps shift the blame from the victim to the transnational criminal enterprises that are often responsible. - The Problem with Avoiding "Victim": While a person who experienced the crime should be allowed to lead the conversation one-on-one, in the third person, the term "victim" should be used to help people understand the severity of the crime. - The Power of Empathy: They discuss the psychological impact of being deceived, and why approaching a person with context and empathy (rather than immediately saying "you've been scammed") is crucial to prevent them from shutting down. - Changing the Language: Stokes shares two terms she wishes the industry would eliminate: "fraudster," because it sounds "kind of cute" and gets the perpetrator "off the hook," and "victim assisted," which inaccurately implies the victim aided the crime rather than being coerced or manipulated. - A Call to Action for Fraud Teams: Kathy Stokes stresses that the first reaction to someone who has experienced fraud should be: "My God, I'm so sorry this happened to you. It's not your fault. Come on, let's talk about it. Let's report it". - Hope for the Future: Hear about AARP's groundbreaking work, including the Words Matter campaign and their effort to change the narrative surrounding fraud through advocacy, education, and partnerships. This is a must-listen for investigators, executives, and anyone working in the financial crimes space who is serious about strengthening prevention efforts and supporting those impacted by fraud.______________________________Connect with Hailey on LinkedInConnect with Kathy on LinkedInLinks:AARP Words Matter Campaign: aarp.org/wordsmatterFraud Wars on YoutubeAARP Fraud Watch Network

In just a few days, New York City, the world's business capital, will select its next mayor. The favorite to win is Democrat Zohran Mamdani, a self-described Democratic socialist. This title has raised concerns among both Republicans and some Democrats. In addition to his controversial views on Israel, his platform—which includes free buses, universal child care, and city-run grocery stores—has prompted many prominent Democrats to hesitate before supporting the frontrunner in next week's NYC mayoral race. While Mamdani's focus on addressing the affordability crisis appeals to residents of one of America's most expensive cities, critics fear his use of "class warfare tactics." FOX Business' Lydia Hu speaks with Dr. Eric Patterson, the President and CEO of the Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation in Washington, D.C., to discuss his organization, the dangers of ‘class warfare' rhetoric and policies, and why he fears Mamdani's popularity and potential victory could signal a shift in American politics.

It sounds impossible — but in Idaho, it's not. Bryan Kohberger, the convicted killer of four University of Idaho students, could one day profit from his crimes. Why? Because Idaho has no “Son of Sam” law — no statute that blocks criminals from turning their infamy into income. In this episode, Tony Brueski exposes the gaping legal loophole that could let a murderer make money off murder. While most states have laws that stop convicted felons from profiting off books, interviews, or documentaries about their crimes, Idaho never passed one. That means that even behind bars, Kohberger could legally sell his “story,” write a memoir, or partner with a producer on a so-called “tell-all” — and keep the profits. This isn't theory. It's a constitutional gap that's been exploited before, thanks to a Supreme Court ruling that struck down New York's original Son of Sam law on First Amendment grounds. Since then, states have tried to rewrite the rules — but Idaho simply never wrote them. The result? Victims' families would have to fight in civil court just to stop a killer from cashing checks tied to their loved one's deaths. Tony breaks down how this could actually play out, how media companies skirt the rules by routing money through shell deals and “consulting” fees, and what lawmakers must do now to close the door before Kohberger or anyone like him turns infamy into profit. Justice isn't just about a sentence — it's about who owns the story afterward. And right now, in Idaho, that story could pay. #BryanKohberger #HiddenKillers #UniversityOfIdahoMurders #TrueCrime #Idaho #SonOfSamLaw #JusticeForVictims #CrimeProfits #BryanKohbergerCase #TonyBrueski #TrueCrimePodcast #LegalLoopholes #VictimsRights #Kohberger Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Context of White Supremacy hosts the weekly summit on Neutralizing Workplace Racism 10/30/25. We're nearly a full month into the US federal government "shutdown," and many more federal workers report feeling the direct impact of not being compensated, being furloughed, and wondering when will all of this will be resolved. Again, 65% of federal employees allegedly survive paycheck to paycheck. In Ohio, three Air Force employees are reported dead in a shocking double murder-suicide. 34-year-old Jacob E. Prichard allegedly killed his wife, Jaymee Prichard, and stuffed her body in the trunk of his car. Jacob drove the vehicle with his wife's remains to a fellow co-workers residence, and once there, he allegedly killed Jamie S. Gustitus before taking his own life. The Kansas City star reports, "It's unclear what the relationship between the married couple and Gustitus was other than the fact they all worked at the Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Greene County." Additionally, many non-white callers report being threatened and/or verbally accosted in the workplace. We remind Victims of Racism to expect to be humiliated on the job and to have a code to help maintain your composure when subjected to Racist insults at work. #NoPoliticsOnTheJob INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE 564943# #SobrietyWouldBeBest INVEST in The COWS - http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: http://cash.app/$TheCOWS Call: 720.716.7300 Code: 564943#

In 1790s colonial India, a secret brotherhood known as the Thuggee cult perfected the art of ritual murder. At its center stood Thug Behram—history's most prolific serial killer with 931 confirmed victims over a 40-year career.From the roads of Madhya Pradesh, Behram built a shadow empire of organized killers who used deception, patience, and sacred devotion to the goddess Kali to strangle travelers with silk handkerchiefs. His victims never saw death coming—they were murdered by the companions they trusted most.In 1840, British investigator William Henry Sleeman launched one of history's first criminal intelligence operations to dismantle the Thuggee network. Behram's capture and confession would revolutionize law enforcement forever.This is historical true crime you've never heard.Our Sponsors:* Check out Secret Nature and use my code SHANE for a great deal: https://secretnature.comSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/foul-play-crime-series/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands

It's Fun Day Monday on the Majority Report On today's program: U.S. Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent tells ABC News that he is a soybean farmer and so he feels the pain of the tariffs as well. Turns out he is just a landlord to $25 million worth of soybean farms. The American Federation of Government Employees is feeling pressure from their members to end the shutdown. In Landover, Maryland furloughed federal workers line up for food assistance in a queue that stretches down the street and around the block. The Trump administration is claiming they do not have authority to fund SNAP amidst the shutdown, which is proven to be a lie. Zohran Mamdani, AOC and Bernie Sanders held a rally in Queens, New York on Sunday Night packing out Forrest Hills Stadium with over 13,000 people. AOC delivers remarks over the immigrants, freeman, and suffragists that built New York and they are the ones that will determine our future. Zohran gives all credit to Bernie Sanders for teaching Zohran the language of democratic Socialism. Emma Vigeland asks Zohran if he believes that a large win in the mayoral race would provide him with leverage with Albany since Hochul is up for reelection in 2026. Hochul speaks at the rally and is drowned out by "Tax the Rich" chants. The next day Hochul claims to have thought the crowd was cheering "Let's Go Bills" In the Fun Half: Another patriot humiliates ICE agents in a beautiful rant after they harassed him at 26 Federal Plaza in New York. Pete Hegseth does not dispute rumors that the Trump Administration is planning on deploying the National Guard in all 50 states in 2026. On Fox News Stephen Miller tells ICE officers that they have federal immunity to do whatever they have to do to perform their duties. Kyrsten Sinema, now a lobbyist for AI, speaks at a planning commission meeting in Chandler, AZ encouraging them to build a data center before the government comes in builds it without their consent.
