Florida Man Allegedly Kills Woman During Date at Resort, Conceals Body in Water Heater Closet, Authorities Say

Florida Man Allegedly Kills Woman During Date at Resort, Conceals Body in Water Heater Closet, Authorities Say A Florida man has been charged with murder after allegedly killing a woman during a meeting at a resort hotel in the Florida Keys and attempting to conceal the crime. Dylan Lamb, 33, was arrested in connection with the death of 43-year-old Nadyne Marie Tillman, whose body was discovered in a closet at the Amoray Dive Resort in Key Largo on Monday. According to the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office, deputies responded to a missing persons report at the resort and found Tillman’s body hidden under a water heater. She had been brutally beaten to death. Lamb, who had been on probation for a previous grand theft conviction, allegedly met Tillman through a sex solicitation website. Investigators learned from Tillman’s friend that she had texted about meeting a man at the resort on Saturday morning but was never heard from again after saying “I’m in” when Lamb opened the door. A resort employee confirmed Lamb rented the room through Expedia and provided his mother’s phone number. He had checked into the room Friday night but refused to switch rooms when hotel staff attempted to relocate him. Lamb vacated the room on Sunday, leaving behind three large trash bags filled with soiled towels and linens, which were later described as heavily stained with blood, urine, and feces. Unfortunately, hotel staff disposed of the bags without alerting authorities, and the dumpster containing them is now gone. Tillman’s family grew concerned after she failed to respond to messages, leading her daughter to trace her car to the resort. Police were alerted, and the body was discovered shortly after. Lamb’s parole officer confirmed he had met with him the day before the discovery. Detectives arrested Lamb at his job as a kayak instructor. During questioning, Lamb admitted to paying Tillman $200 for sex but claimed she tried to leave without fulfilling her end of the agreement. Lamb alleged that he blocked the door to stop her, and she began hitting him. He said he only hit her once in the face, causing her to fall, hit her head, and lose consciousness. Lamb then claimed he went to the bathroom to calm down and returned to find her not breathing. He said he panicked, tried to clean up the scene, and hid her body in the water heater closet. Lamb also disposed of Tillman’s cellphone and the soiled linens. However, investigators found that Tillman’s injuries were inconsistent with Lamb’s account, revealing multiple facial injuries, including two black eyes and a busted lip. In addition to murder, Lamb faces charges of kidnapping, destruction of evidence, and procuring a prostitute. He remains in Monroe County Jail without bond as the investigation continues.

FBI Profiler on Karen Read’s Public Strategy Conviction or Control

FBI Profiler on Karen Read’s Public Strategy Conviction or Control In this explosive breakdown of the Karen Read case, retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke, former chief of the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program, joins us to unravel the psychological and behavioral layers behind Read’s public defense. From shifting narratives about the death of John O'Keefe, to speculative statements like “he didn’t look mortally wounded,” Dreeke brings his expertise to questions of deception, narcissistic behavior, and defense strategy. We dive into the probabilities behind the defense’s claims, including the alleged involvement of a police dog and theories involving others at the scene. How likely are these claims from a behavioral and evidentiary standpoint? Is Karen Read simply protecting herself—or manipulating the narrative? If you're following the twists and turns of the Karen Read trial, this expert analysis sheds new light on the case's most confounding questions.

The Trial Of Karen Read - Defense Opening Statements

The Trial Of Karen Read - Defense Opening Statements Defense attorney Alan Jackson presents the opening statements for Karen Read's defense, challenging the prosecution's claims and asserting that Read is the victim of a flawed and biased investigation. Jackson argues that O'Keefe's injuries are inconsistent with being struck by a vehicle and suggests that he may have been assaulted elsewhere before being placed outside. The defense points to investigative shortcomings, including misconduct by former State Trooper Michael Proctor, and contends that the case against Read is built on reasonable doubt.

Karen Read Trial - Opening Statements- Prosecution

In the high-profile retrial of Karen Read, special prosecutor Hank Brennan delivers the prosecution's opening statements, laying out the Commonwealth's case against Read in the death of Boston police officer John O'Keefe. Brennan asserts that Read intentionally struck O'Keefe with her SUV and left him to die in the snow outside a house party in Canton, Massachusetts, on January 29, 2022. He emphasizes Read's alleged statements at the scene, including, "I hit him, I hit him, I hit him," and references a television interview where Read speculates about possibly injuring O'Keefe. Brennan also introduces new evidence, such as data from O'Keefe's cellphone indicating a drop in battery temperature, suggesting he was left outside in freezing conditions.     Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Karen Read's Words Will Come Back To Haunt Her In New Trial, Attorney Bob Motta Explains How

What happens when your own words might be the thing that buries you in court? As the sequel to Karen Read’s trial heats up, Defense Attorney Bob Motta joins Tony Brueski to dive into the mess of interviews, inconsistent statements, and a tsunami of alleged lack-of-empathy moments that could shift the jury’s mood from curious to convicted. We’re talking about a case where the evidence might not scream “murder,” but the personality on display just might whisper it over cocktails. Karen’s public commentary is set to become courtroom content, and while it doesn’t prove she allegedly killed John O’Keefe, it definitely doesn’t win her any popularity contests. The problem? Her own narrative shapeshifts more than a soap opera plotline. One moment she dropped him off, the next he walked into the house, or maybe he didn’t. Karen’s version of events bends to fit the vibe of the day, and the court might not be feeling flexible. As her defense team braces for an onslaught of interview clips, the bigger question looms: Will she be forced to testify just to clean up her own mess? Is this really a murder case—or a masterclass in how to self-destruct in public? #KarenRead #JohnOKeefe #TrueCrimePodcast #DefenseDiaries #HiddenKillers #CourtroomDrama #TrialTwist Want to listen to ALL our podcasts AD-FREE?

What Caused Karen Read's RAGE Towards John O'Keefe, Psychotherapist Explains

What Caused Karen Read's RAGE Towards John O'Keefe, Psychotherapist Explains What kind of person burns their life down to support someone they’ve never met—especially someone accused of murder? Tony Brueski and psychotherapist Shavaun Scott dig into the psychology behind the super fans of alleged killer Karen Read, questioning what drives ordinary people to lose their grip on reality in the name of "justice." From people flying across countries and going bankrupt just to protest outside courtrooms, to disturbing voicemails and bizarre courtroom behavior, this episode dives headfirst into what might be going on in the minds of Read’s supporters—and Read herself. Is it narcissism? Projection? Insecurity? Why does someone accuse their partner of cheating with the same breath they use to try seducing his friends? As Brueski and Scott dissect her emotional tirades, courtroom smirks, and lack of empathy—especially towards the children of the man she's accused of killing—it raises a chilling question: what kind of person identifies with this behavior, and why are they so eager to defend it? What does it say about us when red flags look like rally cries? #KarenRead #TrueCrimePodcast #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #ShavaunScott #PsychologyOfCrime #TrueCrimeToday Want to listen to ALL our podcasts AD-FREE?

Breaking Down "Bone Valley" Season 1 With Gilbert King- Part 2

Breaking Down "Bone Valley" Season 1 With Gilbert King Part 2 What if the man in prison isn't the killer—but the real suspect confessed, and nothing changed? In 1987, Michelle Schofield vanished. Days later, her body was found—and her husband, Leo, was convicted. But now, Pulitzer Prize-winner Gilbert King is uncovering the disturbing truth behind Leo Schofield’s decades-long incarceration. A judge turned whistleblower, a witness with a history of delusions, and a justice system that seemed more interested in closing the case than solving it. Leo was across town with witnesses when Michelle was allegedly killed—so why is he still in prison? And how did the real suspect’s fingerprints on Michelle’s car not lead to justice? King’s deep dive into the case, now revealed in Bone Valley Season 2, exposes the tangled web of small-town loyalties, prosecutorial maneuvering, and a defense that never stood a chance. This is the story of a man who never stopped saying he was innocent—and the journalist who believed him. #BoneValley #LeoSchofield #MichelleSchofield #GilbertKing #WrongfulConviction #TrueCrimePodcast #FloridaJusticeSystem #ColdCase #InnocentManInPrison #HiddenKillers Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?  Check out our YouTube Channel. https://www.youtube.com/@hiddenkillerspod Instagram https://www.instagram.com/hiddenkillerspod/ Facebook https://www.facebook.com/hiddenkillerspod/ Tik-Tok https://www.tiktok.com/@hiddenkillerspod X Twitter https://x.com/tonybpod Listen Ad-Free On Apple Podcasts Here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/true-crime-today-premium-plus-ad-free-advance-episode/id1705422872

The Trial of Lori Vallow Daybell-VERDICT

The Trial of Lori Vallow Daybell-VERDICT A jury just found Lori Vallow Daybell guilty—again. This time, for conspiring to murder her own husband, Charles Vallow, in Arizona. The same woman already serving life for the deaths of her two kids and romantic rival is now staring down yet another life sentence. But this case is different: she represented herself, claimed her brother acted in self-defense, and jurors still only needed three hours to convict. The details? Disturbing. Alleged religious delusions, life insurance money, and a brother who conveniently died months later. And there's another trial coming—involving yet another murder plot. How many bodies does it take before someone finally stops her? #LoriVallow #LoriVallowDaybell #CharlesVallow #DoomsdayMom #ChadDaybell #TrueCrime #ArizonaTrial #AlexCox #BrandonBoudreaux #CultMurder  Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?    Check out our YouTube Channel. https://www.youtube.com/@hiddenkillerspod Instagram https://www.instagram.com/hiddenkillerspod/ Facebook https://www.facebook.com/hiddenkillerspod/ Tik-Tok https://www.tiktok.com/@hiddenkillerspod X Twitter https://x.com/tonybpod

Does Karen Read Believe Her Own Story? A Former FBI Profiler Responds

Does Karen Read Believe Her Own Story?  A Former FBI Profiler Responds Former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke joins Tony Brueski to analyze the unraveling murder trial of Karen Read, accused of killing Boston Police Officer John O’Keefe. This episode explores explosive new evidence—vehicle data revealing timeline inconsistencies, the psychological weight of 50+ voicemails, and dog bite forensics that could directly link to O’Keefe’s wounds. Dreeke dissects Read’s post-crime behavior, drawing from decades of behavioral profiling. From her alleged narcissistic tendencies to her media-driven strategy, this case is riddled with contradictions and psychological intrigue. Phones dumped on military bases, mysteriously vanished dogs, and an army of supporters now turning against her—this isn’t just a murder trial, it’s a deep psychological unraveling playing out in real time. #KarenRead #JohnOKeefe #TrueCrime #FBIProfiler #RobinDreeke #MurderTrial #DogBiteEvidence #NarcissisticBehavior #KarenReadTrial #BehavioralAnalysis Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

12 Conflicting Claims in the Karen Read Case—You Decide What’s Real

12 Conflicting Claims in the Karen Read Case—You Decide What’s Real The Karen Read trial has become one of the most controversial and divisive true crime cases in recent memory — and for good reason. With the death of Boston Police Officer John O’Keefe, the courtroom has turned into a battleground between two dramatically different narratives. In this video, we take a comprehensive look at 10 key facts and contradictions that define this case — from the prosecution’s data-driven theory to the defense’s explosive allegations of a police cover-up. According to the Commonwealth, Karen Read — O’Keefe’s girlfriend — intentionally struck him with her Lexus SUV outside 34 Fairview Road after a night of heavy drinking and arguing. Prosecutors point to black box data, health app tracking, and forensic tail light fragments as digital breadcrumbs proving guilt. They argue that Read’s own words — including allegedly telling first responders, “I hit him” — amount to a confession of second-degree murder and leaving the scene of a fatal accident. But the defense says none of that is true. In fact, they claim there was no collision at all. Instead, they present a deeply unsettling alternative: that John O’Keefe was injured or killed inside the home of a fellow Boston officer, surrounded by other cops and local power players, and then his body was moved outside hours later. Their argument includes shocking elements: a suspicious 2:27 a.m. Google search for “how long to die in cold,” allegedly missing and later-appearing tail light shards, and the presence of multiple unidentified DNA samples on O’Keefe’s shoe. This video breaks down: – The forensic evidence presented by both sides – Why the black box and phone data matters — and where it conflicts – How Karen Read’s statements are interpreted by the prosecution vs. the defense – The role of disgraced lead investigator Michael Proctor, who was fired for misconduct in this very case – Whether the injury to O’Keefe’s head was caused by a fall… or by something else entirely – The implications of a rehomed family dog that some experts say may have bitten the victim – Who placed a car in front of the location where the body was found — and why the defense says it matters – Whether this case is about justice… or about protecting powerful people Was this a tragic, alcohol-fueled accident? Or a deliberate manipulation of the truth to protect those in blue?

Dog Bites & Vehicle Strike, Are EITHER True In The Trial Of Karen Read? Bob Motta Discusses

Dog Bites & Vehicle Strike, Are EITHER True In The Trial Of Karen Read? Bob Motta Discusses Could a dog really be the key to cracking the mystery of John O’Keefe’s death? Tony Brueski and Defense Attorney Bob Motta take a deep dive into the bizarre injury patterns found on John’s arms and what may have caused them—plastic shards from a shattered tail light? A misstep in the snow? Or maybe even the family dog? From plows hurling debris like confetti at a murder scene to coyotes allegedly dragging bodies around like chew toys, this episode doesn’t hold back on wild (yet strangely plausible) theories. The guys also question why an expert would confidently call scratches "bite marks" without even comparing them to the dog's actual teeth. Let’s just say, when a defense attorney is citing backyard sticks, slippery snow, and a little too much booze as more believable than the prosecution’s case… you know it’s going to be a ride. Is the real culprit a car, a coyote, or just a tragic accident wrapped in poor judgment? #KarenRead #JohnOKeefe #TrueCrimePodcast #DefenseDiaries #HiddenKillers #CrimeSceneTheories #DogDidIt?

Psychotherapist Breaks Down WHY Karen Read Has Been Able To Change Her Story So Many Times

Psychotherapist Breaks Down WHY Karen Read Has Been Able To Change Her Story So Many Times How many red flags does it take before we stop calling it a parade? Karen Read's alleged involvement in the death of John O’Keefe has all the markings of a psychological thriller—complete with shifting narratives, emotionally charged text messages, and an army of supporters ready to go to battle on her behalf. Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott joins Tony Brueski to unpack the alleged narcissistic behaviors on display, from gaslighting to full-blown flying monkey recruitment. Is Karen really playing from the narcissist’s playbook, or is this just what chaos looks like when mixed with grief, alcohol, and a wildly public case? The inconsistencies in her story, the borderline-style emotional flare-ups, and the cult-like devotion of strangers waving signs in her name—none of it adds up neatly. But it does make one hell of a case study. Are we witnessing a master manipulator at work, or a community desperately trying to make sense of tragedy? #KarenRead #JohnOKeefe #NarcissisticAbuse #TrueCrimePodcast #ClusterBPersonality #FlyingMonkeys #GaslightingExposed Want to listen to ALL our podcasts AD-FREE?

What Surprises Could Be In Store At Karen Read's Re-Trial, Attorney Eric Faddis Gives The Preview

What Surprises Could Be In Store At Karen Read's Re-Trial, Attorney Eric Faddis Gives The Preview What happens when a murder trial starts to look more like a Netflix drama than a courtroom proceeding? Welcome to the Karen Read case—where dogs are suspects, mystery men emerge from the shadows, and legal arguments sound like rejected Law & Order scripts. With former prosecutor Eric Faddis at the table, Tony Brueski dives into the latest twists of the alleged hit-and-run retrial. The judge is letting the defense point fingers at Brian Albert and Brian Higgins again, but only after a dramatic narrowing of who they can actually blame. The infamous third-party theory still lives, even if it’s being propped up by little more than a shadowy “guy in the night” and a dog named Chloe with questionable bite marks. Is this a strategic push to confuse the jury just enough to squeeze out another mistrial? Or is the defense throwing spaghetti at the wall and hoping something sticks? Either way, it's not just a trial—it’s a full-blown credibility war. Why does this case feel less like justice and more like improv night at a true crime convention? #KarenRead #TrueCrimeToday #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #EricFaddis #CourtroomDrama #MurderMystery Want to listen to ALL our podcasts AD-FREE?

Colorado Man Impersonated Wife’s Ex to Stalk and Murder Her During Divorce Process, Authorities Say

Colorado Man Impersonated Wife’s Ex to Stalk and Murder Her During Divorce Process, Authorities Say A Colorado man is facing trial after allegedly stalking and ultimately murdering his wife during their divorce proceedings, authorities revealed. Daniel Krug, 44, is accused of posing as his wife’s ex-boyfriend and sending her threatening texts for months before fatally beating and stabbing her in December 2023. Kristil Krug, 43, was found in the garage of her home on December 14, 2023, with signs of a brutal attack. Prosecutors presented evidence in court, including a digital trail of messages that linked Daniel Krug to the crime. The texts, sent from an account posing as Kristil’s ex-boyfriend, caused the victim to fear she was being stalked. Kristil had reported the harassment to authorities in October 2023, stating that the sender knew intimate details of her life, including where she and her husband worked, and had sent creepy photos of her car and her husband. Kristil had been planning to divorce Daniel, accusing him of being “sometimes rough with the kids,” and had confided in her mother about her plans to leave him. The texts escalated to disturbing messages, including one that read, “I’ll get rid of him and then we can be together.” Investigators eventually traced the messages to Daniel Krug after linking the IP address to his workplace and discovering that he had purchased a burner phone with a gift card registered to his name. Furthermore, security cameras at the couple’s home were tampered with—lenses covered with tape and a Ring camera turned off—leading police to question Daniel’s role in the crime. Two days after Kristil’s body was discovered, Daniel Krug was arrested on charges of first-degree murder, stalking, and criminal impersonation. Police also ruled out her ex-boyfriend as a suspect after finding him in Utah at the time of the murder. During the investigation, Daniel reportedly called the police to perform a welfare check on Kristil, claiming she hadn’t responded to his messages. However, evidence suggested that he had been sending texts from her phone after her death, further implicating him in the crime. In his defense, Daniel’s attorney questioned the investigation, claiming flaws in the handling of evidence, including the failure to test Kristil’s phone for fingerprints. However, prosecutors argued that Daniel attempted to deflect blame onto the ex-boyfriend, despite his proven alibi. Daniel Krug’s trial is expected to continue until April 18.

Lori Vallow Daybell's Brother Throws Her Under The Bus, Backs Up And Runs Her Over AGAIN

In a dramatic turn during the Lori Vallow Daybell trial, Alex Cox — Lori’s own brother — becomes the unintentional star witness from beyond the grave. In this gripping episode, Tony Brueski is joined by retired FBI Behavioral Analysis Chief Robin Dreeke to unpack the explosive testimony, recordings, and courtroom strategies that show Lori's inner circle is rapidly unraveling — and turning against her. As the prosecution lays out its case of conspiracy to murder Charles Vallow, it’s clear that Lori’s bizarre courtroom behavior and cross-examination tactics aren’t helping her defense. But it’s her brother’s past statements and involvement that are painting a far more damaging picture — one that prosecutors say ties Lori directly to the motive, means, and manipulation behind the crime. Dreeke brings his expertise to examine how narcissism, spiritual delusions, and familial loyalty collide in a courtroom charged with emotion and tension. This is a must-listen for anyone following the Lori Vallow Daybell case, true crime legal strategy, or the psychology behind family conspiracies and cult-like belief systems. Don’t miss this breakdown of the moment Lori's defense may have completely collapsed — and it was her own brother who delivered the blow. Want to listen to ALL our podcasts AD-FREE?

Is ANYONE A Reliable Witness In The Karen Read Trial? Defense Attorney Bob Motta Weighs In

Is ANYONE A Reliable Witness In The Karen Read Trial? Defense Attorney Bob Motta Weighs In Did John O’Keefe really die from being hit by a car—or is that just the easiest story to sell? Tony Brueski and Defense Attorney Bob Motta aren’t holding back in this deep dive into the latest twists in the Karen Read case. With damning new evidence and a defense strategy that’s walking a tightrope over a pit of conflicting statements, the big question is: will Karen Read take the stand to tell her side—or will silence speak louder? The episode dissects the fragile timeline, inconsistent witness accounts, and the defense’s risky third-party blame game. Motta unpacks why the science—like the injuries to John O'Keefe and the damage (or lack thereof) to Read’s SUV—might be the only reliable witness left. Everyone was drunk. No one remembers. And the truth may have been lost in that blizzard of booze and bad decisions. Could the defense's own narrative open the door to more incriminating testimony? And what happens if the only person who claims John walked into that house never says it under oath? #KarenRead #JohnOKeefe #TrueCrimePodcast #HiddenKillers #DefenseDiaries #ReasonableDoubt #CrimeSceneMystery Want to listen to ALL our podcasts AD-FREE?

What's Wrong With Lori Vallow Daybell - A Fully Psychological Breakdown

What's Wrong With Lori Vallow Daybell - A Fully Psychological Breakdown Lori Vallow Daybell believed she was on a divine mission—and that belief led to a chain of horrifying crimes. In this episode, we dive into the court-verified psychological profile of the so-called "Doomsday Mom," revealing exactly what psychiatrists diagnosed and how it shaped her behavior in and out of court. You’ll hear how Lori Vallow was found competent to stand trial—despite suffering from delusional disorder with bizarre religious content—and how her personality traits, including narcissism and histrionics, played a role in the chilling decisions she made. We explore how Lori reframed murder as salvation, why she showed no remorse, and how her courtroom behavior left experts and the public stunned. This deep dive goes beyond headlines to explain the psychology that allowed Lori Vallow to deny reality, justify murder, and continue claiming innocence—even after conviction. Whether you're following the trial, interested in forensic psychology, or want to understand how belief systems turn deadly, this is a case you won’t forget. #LoriVallow #TrueCrime #DoomsdayMom #LoriVallowDaybell #CriminalPsychology #ForensicPsychology #CourtroomDrama #MurderTrial #CultMentality #ChadDaybell Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Plus, we dissect the defense’s attempted alibi using cell phone records, their push to introduce alternate suspects, and the strange significance of a witness who recalls seeing “bushy eyebrows.” Whether you're following the Idaho student murders closely or are new to the case, this episode brings clarity to the legal chessboard—and the high-stakes strategy both sides are playing. #BryanKohberger #IdahoFour #TrueCrimeAnalysis #DNAEvidence #KohbergerTrial #KaBarKnife #ElantraSurveillance #TouchDNA #AlternateSuspectTheory #TrueCrimeCommunity Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

How & Why Did Karen Read Think John O'Keefe 'Wasn't Mortally Wounded' When She Drove Away?

How & Why Did Karen Read Think John O'Keefe 'Wasn't Mortally Wounded' When She Drove Away? What really happened that night—was it a tragic accident or something far more calculated? Karen Read's shifting stories and foggy memories make it hard to pin down the truth. One minute she’s unsure if she even hit him, the next she’s got vivid recollections involving loud U2 music and emotional play-by-plays. Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins Tony Brueski to dig into the inconsistencies and psychological clues that may reveal what’s really going on in her mind. We’re talking memory blackouts, the bizarre Dateline clip, and whether someone can genuinely convince themselves of a false reality. And what’s the deal with her relationship with John O’Keefe? Why do empathetic people seem to end up with partners who bulldoze holidays and flip out over innocent conversations? Throw in booze, alleged toxic dynamics, and potential narcissistic traits (we’re not diagnosing, just observing), and you’ve got a tangled mess that keeps getting weirder. Is Karen a victim of her own mind—or does she know more than she lets on? What other memories might surface—and will any of them actually lead to the truth? #KarenRead #JohnOKeefe #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimePodcast #FalseMemories #ToxicRelationships #DatelineMystery Want to listen to ALL our podcasts AD-FREE?

Judge Rules Kohberger Can't Be Called 'Psychopath' or 'Sociopath' At Trial

In this captivating episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, we're breaking down the latest developments in the Bryan Kohberger case, exploring critical pretrial decisions that will shape the murder trial ahead. From Amazon purchase histories and emotional 911 call recordings to testimony from surviving roommates and even peculiar details like bushy eyebrows, the court's recent evidentiary rulings are setting crucial boundaries. Former prosecutor and defense attorney Eric Faddis joins us to dissect exactly how these decisions could influence the outcome and explains why the admissibility of each piece of evidence could be pivotal. Diving deeper, Tony and Eric unpack why the defense is aggressively challenging specific terms and evidence. What's behind the courtroom battle over using words like "murder," "psychopath," and "sociopath"? Eric reveals the strategy behind excluding emotionally charged language and discusses the legal rationale for allowing the jury to hear the chilling 911 call from surviving roommates under the "excited utterance" hearsay exception. We also discuss the significance of touch DNA found on the knife sheath, a pivotal yet controversial piece of evidence the defense desperately seeks to minimize. Finally, we explore Kohberger's shaky alibi—stargazing on a cloudy night—and what it means for his defense. Will Kohberger himself have to testify to establish this alibi, potentially opening a Pandora’s box of risk for the defense?

Will Lori's Vallow Daybell's Choice To Rest Her Own Defense Result In A New Conviction, Attorney Eric Faddis Talks

Will Lori's Vallow Daybell's Choice To Rest Her Own Defense Result In A New Conviction, Attorney Eric Faddis Talks What kind of defendant stares down a murder trial and simply says, “Nah, I’m good”? Lori Vallow Daybell, in true Lori fashion, closed her defense with a theatrical nothing. No witnesses, no argument, no Nephi-fueled sermon from the stand—just a mic drop and a courtroom scratching their heads. Was it confidence? Delusion? Or just someone finally too tired to spin the celestial wheel one more time? Former felony prosecutor Eric Faddis joins Tony Brueski to unravel Lori’s courtroom curveball, dig into what the prosecution didn’t quite prove, and question whether her silence was strategy or surrender. Between coded religious lingo, the ghost of Charles Vallow, and the judge playing a game of legal training wheels, this episode peels back the chaos behind the calm. Could this bizarre courtroom silence actually give her a shot at walking free? #LoriVallowDaybell #TrueCrimePodcast #CourtroomDrama #NephiDefense #MurderTrial #EricFaddis #HiddenKillers Want to listen to ALL our podcasts AD-FREE?

'I've Never Seen Anything Like This, Richard Allen Is Innocent' Ret FBI Behavioral Analysis Chief On Delphi Murder 'Confessions'

In what may be the most powerful statement yet in the Delphi murders case, retired FBI Behavioral Analysis Chief Robin Dreeke joins Tony Brueski to declare: “Richard Allen is innocent.” With exclusive insight and expert analysis, Dreeke examines the deeply troubling jailhouse “confessions” made by Allen — confessions riddled with confusion, contradictions, and clear signs of psychotic break and mental collapse. This episode pulls no punches. Dreeke dismantles the prosecution's reliance on Allen’s recorded calls, exploring how extreme isolation, overmedication, and psychological pressure can lead to false confessions. He explains why Allen’s statements — including claims he killed people who never existed — should never be considered credible evidence in any trial. As the public scrambles to understand what’s happening behind closed doors in Delphi, Dreeke brings clarity from decades of experience inside the FBI’s Behavioral Analysis Program. If you’re following the Delphi case, researching Richard Allen, or questioning the criminal justice system’s treatment of the mentally ill, this is essential listening. Uncover the truth behind the viral headlines — and find out why one of the FBI’s top minds says we may be witnessing a tragic miscarriage of justice in real time.

Karen Read Trial: A Dog Named Chloe and a Video in the Garage

Karen Read Trial: A Dog Named Chloe and a Video in the Garage The judge just opened the door to some of the defense’s wildest claims — and shut it hard on others. With the Karen Read trial finally set to start Tuesday, Judge Beverly J. Cannone delivered a rapid-fire series of rulings that give us a sneak peek into what jurors will — and won’t — hear once the courtroom doors swing open. And yeah, if you’ve been following this case, some of these decisions are kind of a big deal. Let’s start with the defense’s theory. They’ve been loud and clear from the start: Karen Read didn’t kill Boston Police Officer John O’Keefe, her boyfriend. Instead, they’ve said she’s the fall girl in a much bigger cover-up — one involving other people at the house where O’Keefe’s body was found... and possibly a German Shepherd named Chloe. No, seriously. Chloe the dog is part of this. O’Keefe was found dead in the snow outside 34 Fairview Road in Canton after a night out in January 2022. Prosecutors say Read hit him with her Lexus SUV, drove off, and left him to freeze to death. They’ve charged her with second-degree murder, motor vehicle manslaughter while intoxicated, and leaving the scene of an accident that caused death. But the defense says O’Keefe was already hurt or killed inside the house — and then dumped in the snow to make it look like a hit-and-run. And they’ve pointed to Chloe the dog as a possible source of some of the injuries on O’Keefe’s body. Judge Cannone’s latest rulings address how far both sides can go with this theory in court. First, the Chloe angle. The prosecution had an expert, Dr. James Crosby, lined up to say that a dog couldn’t have caused the injuries found on O’Keefe’s arm. But Cannone said hold up — Crosby can testify about dog anatomy, even Chloe’s specific jaw structure and measurements, but he can’t outright say Chloe’s off the hook. That leaves the door open just enough for the defense to argue their theory, while still limiting how far the prosecution can shut it down. Then there's the garage video. The defense claims there’s footage from the Canton Police Department’s sallyport — basically a secured garage — that could show a State Police trooper tampering with Read’s SUV. They believe someone might’ve messed with the taillight to make it look like the vehicle had been involved in the crash that allegedly killed O’Keefe. Cannone’s ruling? The defense can bring in an expert to extract a forensically sound copy of that one specific video file. But they can’t go on a fishing expedition through the entire Canton Police Department’s detective file. So they’ll get their footage — and if that video shows anything sketchy, it could become a cornerstone of their argument. Also getting the green light: defense expert Garrett Wing. Cannone said Wing’s got enough experience to offer useful input on certain disputed issues — though she didn’t spell out which ones. Still, it’s another tool for the defense to try to chip away at the prosecution’s version of events. On the flip side, the judge laid down some hard deadlines for the defense. By 5 p.m. Friday, they have to hand over all their evidence related to two experts from a forensic firm called ARCCA — the same firm that testified during the previous trial, which ended in a mistrial. And this time, they have to say if these experts are getting paid — something they conveniently left out last time around. They’ve also got until Monday to disclose any testing the experts have done, are doing, or are even thinking about doing. In short, the judge isn’t letting the defense surprise anyone in the middle of trial. Play your cards now, or don’t play them at all. So, as the courtroom preps for opening statements, here’s what we know: the jury will hear about Chloe. They’ll see the garage video — if it shows anything. And the defense will have a little more room to make their case about a cover-up. But Cannone’s keeping the reins tight. This trial is going to be a showdown. #KarenReadTrial #JohnOKeefe #TrueCrimePodcast #JusticeOrCoverup Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Menendez Brothers’ Freedom Fight Hits Another Wall—And This One’s Personal

The Menendez Brothers’ Freedom Fight Hits Another Wall—And This One’s Personal New Twist in the Menendez Case: Inside the Fight Over Resentencing   The judge called it “stupid.” And honestly, that might be the most accurate legal description anyone’s used in this decades-long saga. Erik and Lyle Menendez, who’ve been in prison for the past 29 years for killing their parents, just had their shot at a new sentencing delayed yet again—this time because no one could agree on whether they’re allowed to look at a report they already have. Let’s rewind. In 1989, the Menendez brothers walked into their parents’ Beverly Hills mansion and shot Jose and Kitty Menendez to death. It was brutal. No question. But what came next split the country. The prosecution said it was a cold-blooded, calculated murder for inheritance. The defense said it was self-defense after a lifetime of sexual abuse at the hands of their father. The jury went with the prosecution, and in 1996, both brothers were sentenced to life without parole. Now, decades later, the conversation shifted. The state of California, under Governor Gavin Newsom’s guidance, has been looking more closely at long-term sentences, rehabilitation, and second chances. That’s where the Menendez brothers come back into focus. Former LA DA George Gascón—before getting pushed out—had asked for their sentences to be reconsidered, recommending they get 50 years with the possibility of parole. But Mark Geragos, the brothers’ longtime attorney, is swinging for the fences. He’s now asking for a reduction to manslaughter. If the judge agrees, that would mean Erik and Lyle walk out of prison immediately. But first, everyone needs to agree on how to handle a risk assessment report ordered by the governor’s office. You’d think that would be straightforward. It is not. The prosecution claims they need more time because only part of the report has been released. The defense hasn’t seen the full thing either. The judge, Michael Jesic, hadn’t seen it either. And he was clearly done with the nonsense. "I need clarification from the governor’s office,” Jesic said in court Thursday. “This is stupid.” Still, prosecutors insisted that the parts they have seen are enough to put the whole thing on pause. They filed a motion to delay so everyone could review what they call a crucial piece of the puzzle: how dangerous the brothers might be if released. According to Deputy DA Habib Balian, if a report exists that evaluates their potential for violence, it has to be considered. On the other side, Geragos went scorched earth. He slammed DA Nathan Hochman for holding a press conference where he referenced the report. Geragos now wants Hochman off the case altogether, saying he’s compromised the process. Hochman, for what it’s worth, has made it clear he does not support resentencing. So yeah—tensions are high. The governor’s office later clarified that the risk assessment wasn’t meant to stand alone—it’s part of a broader review ahead of a June parole hearing. They also said that both the defense and prosecution already had access to what’s been shared. And, they noted, they’re happy to send it to the judge if he wants it. In the meantime, the brothers sat quietly, watching the hearing on a video feed from their prison near San Diego. Dressed in blue, emotionless, probably wondering what fresh bureaucratic hell they were now trapped in. This whole thing has been a stop-and-start process. The original resentencing hearing was set for January, but got postponed because of wildfires in LA and a last-minute attempt by prosecutors to pull back on their own request. This latest delay pushes things again, with the next court date now scheduled for May 9. Outside the courtroom, interest in the case hasn’t faded. Netflix’s “Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story” and a follow-up docuseries reignited public fascination. Journalists flooded the courthouse. Reporters elbowed for spots inside. It’s the same media frenzy that’s followed this case for decades. Inside, things got messy—again. Geragos and Bryan Freedman, an attorney representing Menendez relatives, blasted prosecutors for showing graphic crime scene photos in a prior hearing without warning the family. Freedman called it “harassment.” Balian apologized, but added that Erik and Lyle were the ones who caused the scene in those photos—not him. Another point of contention? The DA’s office now controls the victims’ services branch of the court. Geragos and Freedman say they’ve heard crickets from them. No contact. No coordination. Not even a heads-up. It’s worth noting that nearly all surviving members of the Menendez family have publicly forgiven the brothers. They want them released. They believe in their rehabilitation. Prosecutors, however, say the brothers have never come clean. They point to lies told at trial—about the abuse, about what really happened that night—and say the Menendez brothers haven’t taken full responsibility. Hochman’s office has openly said they don’t believe the abuse happened at all. So where does this leave everything? On pause. Again. The next hearing’s set for May 9, assuming someone can get the right version of the report to the judge and everyone decides to read the same set of pages this time. #MenendezBrothers #ResentencingDrama #TrueCrimePodcast #JusticeSystemChaos Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
