Ret FBI Counterintelligence Chief Questions The Epstein List 'Official' Story

Ret FBI Counterintelligence Chief Questions The Epstein List 'Official' Story What happens when the government tells you something you’ve been hearing for years simply doesn’t exist? In this explosive conversation, retired FBI Special Agent and former Chief of the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program, Robin Dreeke, joins Tony Brueski to break down the latest chapter in the Epstein saga—and why the “official story” doesn’t add up. Despite countless references to Jeffrey Epstein’s so-called “client list,” the Department of Justice now claims no such list ever existed. Robin Dreeke isn’t buying it. With decades of experience inside the bureau, Dreeke walks us through how federal investigations actually work, how evidence is cataloged, and why it would be operationally impossible for there to be no record—if the government had truly wanted to find one. This episode pulls no punches, going deep into the psychological strategies agencies use to control narrative, the quiet tactics of reputational preservation, and how political motives may have interfered with justice. We also explore why this scandal keeps triggering bipartisan discomfort, and whether intelligence agencies themselves might have had a stake in keeping the lid on Epstein’s secrets. Is the list a myth? Or is it just being buried beneath layers of plausible deniability? You’ll want to hear what Dreeke has to say before you accept the official explanation. #TrueCrime #JeffreyEpstein #FBI #EpsteinList #RobinDreeke #EpsteinScandal #HiddenKillers #EpsteinCoverUp #GhislaineMaxwell #EliteProtection #TonyBrueski #EpsteinTruth #GovernmentTransparency #EpsteinFlightLogs #MaxwellTrial Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Can An Incel’s Dark Thinking Change or Be Fixed? Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott Explains Description: Once someone falls into the blackpill mindset—believing they're doomed to be unloved, unwanted, and invisible—can they ever come back? In this episode, I talk with psychotherapist Shavaun Scott about whether an incel’s belief system can actually be challenged or reversed. We dig into what happens once someone fully identifies with incel ideology: how their thinking gets reinforced by online groups, how entitlement and resentment are amplified, and why traditional therapy doesn’t always break through. Shavaun walks us through what treatment might look like—if it happens early enough—and what signs suggest there’s still a way back. We also talk about the limitations. Some incels don’t want to change. Some use the language of therapy as a shield without engaging in real self-reflection. So what does successful intervention actually look like? And how do we support people who are on the edge of radicalization but not quite lost yet? This episode isn’t just about mental health—it’s about hope, responsibility, and the question of whether society is equipped to interrupt this dangerous spiral before it leads to violence. #IncelRecovery #CanTheyChange #ShavaunScott #TrueCrimeTherapy #BryanKohberger #ToxicMasculinity #OnlineExtremism #BlackpillIdeology #MassShooterIntervention #HiddenKillersPodcast 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

Do You Believe There Really Is NO Jeffrey Epstein List? DESCRIPTION: We’ve all heard about it. We’ve all seen names float through the rumor mill. But now, the U.S. government says it never existed. Is there really no Epstein list—or is that just the line being sold to the public? In this provocative interview, defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis challenges the official narrative surrounding the so-called Jeffrey Epstein client list. If there’s no list, why have flight logs, testimonies, and sealed depositions consistently pointed toward a pattern of elite involvement? Faddis outlines how federal cases are built, what evidence the government would actually possess if they were serious about exposing the network, and why public trust has eroded in the wake of conflicting statements. This isn’t tabloid speculation—it’s a surgical legal examination of what’s being hidden in plain sight. If you're questioning the sudden disappearance of one of the most discussed artifacts in modern true crime, you're not alone. #Hashtags: #EpsteinCoverUp #EricFaddis #HiddenKillers #JeffreyEpstein #NoEpsteinList #LegalDissection #TrueCrimeUncovered #SealedFiles #FlightLogTruth #GovernmentSilence 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

Big Breakdown – Is Bryan Kohberger’s Dream Coming True? Description: Did Bryan Kohberger secretly want this all along? In this episode, we dig into a disturbing theory: that Kohberger may have wanted to be caught — or at the very least, wanted the spotlight that came with being the center of a national true crime obsession. From his possible role as “Papa Roger” online, to the calculated way he planned the murders, to the smirking mugshots and bizarre jailhouse selfies, we ask: was Kohberger chasing infamy all along? We also explore the unsettling parallels between him and other fame-obsessed killers, and what it says about a culture that gives violent men exactly the attention they crave. Was this ever about the victims — or was it always about the performance? This is a breakdown of ego, control, and the dark psychology of killers who want to be remembered — no matter the cost.

Ret FBI Agent Gives An Inside Look At What Bryan Kohberger Tell-All Prison Book May Contain Description: Will Bryan Kohberger eventually publish a prison memoir? And if he does—what horrors will it contain? Retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer joins us to speculate on what a tell-all from the confessed Idaho killer might reveal—from his obsession with control to his alleged online alter ego “Papa Rogers,” to what he felt in the moments after the killings. We dig into the ethics, legality, and psychology behind convicted killers writing books, especially in states without Son of Sam laws—where profits could theoretically go to the author. Would Kohberger’s writings be an act of confession, manipulation, or pure narcissism? This episode unpacks what a Kohberger prison narrative might look like—and whether victims’ families would ever get justice if he tried to profit from his crimes. It’s a dark, speculative discussion—but one we need to have, before the publishing world gets ahead of accountability.

Jury Foreman Slams State’s Case After Acquittal in Fatal Stabbing of Prep School Student The foreman of the jury that acquitted Raul Valle of murder in the fatal stabbing of 17-year-old lacrosse player James “Jimmy” McGrath has criticized the prosecution’s case, saying it lacked the evidence necessary to support a conviction. Valle, now 20, was found not guilty on Wednesday of murder, first-degree manslaughter with intent to cause serious physical injury, and first-degree assault with intent to cause serious physical injury. These charges stemmed from a violent altercation on May 14, 2022, during a house party in Shelton, an affluent suburb in Fairfield County, Connecticut. The incident occurred during a night of back-to-back high school parties. McGrath, a student at Fairfield College Preparatory School, was fatally stabbed in the chest during a brawl involving dozens of teenagers. Valle, a student at nearby St. Joseph High School in Trumbull, admitted to wielding a knife during the fight but testified he did not intend to kill anyone and acted in self-defense during a chaotic melee. The jury was unable to reach a unanimous decision on two lesser included charges—second-degree manslaughter and second-degree assault, both based on recklessness. As a result, a partial mistrial was declared on those counts. Jim Stuhlman, the jury foreman and 10th juror, read the not-guilty verdict in court. Speaking to News 3 afterward, Stuhlman said, “They just didn’t have enough to prove the case. There were too many inconsistencies and contradictions in the testimony.” He explained that jurors quickly dismissed the idea that Valle had intentionally killed McGrath. “The prosecution failed to prove intent,” he said, adding that the jury followed legal instructions carefully. “We did what we were supposed to do.” Stuhlman acknowledged the difficulty of the case, saying, “Not everyone will be happy with the conclusion. We weren’t happy that we couldn’t find agreement on the final counts, but we did everything we could to get as far as we did.” The partial mistrial leaves open the possibility of further legal action. On Thursday, Fox News Digital confirmed that the state of Connecticut plans to retry Valle on the unresolved reckless manslaughter and reckless assault charges. Outside the courthouse, Jimmy McGrath’s father, Kevin McGrath, expressed disbelief over the verdict. “I’m astonished at the results,” he said. “But it’s due process. [Valle] is entitled to it. The jury made their decision.” He admitted he was confident there would be a conviction after learning a verdict had been reached. “I’m shocked. I thought we were going to get some justice today,” McGrath said. Despite his disappointment, he acknowledged that Valle received a fair trial. “I don’t believe Raul Valle woke up that Saturday morning planning to kill Jimmy,” he added. “They didn’t even know each other. But my son is gone, and the person who took his life is free tonight.” During the trial, Valle testified that he never intended to harm anyone. He said the fight began at a home on Lazy Brook Road, then continued at a second house party on Laurel Glen Drive. Valle said a friend handed him a knife during the brawl, and that he swung it defensively in a panic as he was being surrounded and attacked. He claimed he briefly lost consciousness during the fight. McGrath suffered a fatal stab wound to the chest and was pronounced dead later that night. The McGrath family is now pursuing civil litigation against multiple parties they believe bear responsibility for the events of that evening.  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

South Carolina Mother and Son Sentenced for Brutal Murder of Disabled Man in Drug-Related "Mob" Attack A South Carolina mother and her teenage son have been sentenced to decades in prison for their roles in the brutal killing of a man who was first left in a wheelchair after a vicious beating, then murdered in what prosecutors described as a “mob-style” attack. On Monday, Samantha Watts, 42, was sentenced to 45 years in prison, and her son, Payton Watts, now 18, was sentenced to 35 years. Both pleaded guilty to murder in connection with the death of 29-year-old Corey Adam Soles in January 2023. The sentences were handed down as part of a plea deal, the Fifteenth Judicial Circuit Solicitor’s Office announced. Prosecutors recommended that Payton, who was just 16 at the time of the murder, receive a sentence between 30 and 40 years, contingent on his mother accepting a plea without any sentencing recommendation from the state. According to court documents, Soles was attacked between January 8 and 9, 2023, in Horry County, South Carolina. He was first assaulted with a blunt object—believed to be wielded by Payton Watts—resulting in a broken leg. After that initial beating, Soles was confined to a wheelchair. Prosecutors say he was then beaten again, suffering fatal blunt force trauma to the head while he was defenseless. Soles was reported missing on January 10, 2023. His body was discovered six days later in a rural area near Galivants Ferry, according to local reports from WPDE. The case revealed a disturbing pattern of abuse and criminal activity involving multiple members of the Watts family. Prosecutors said Samantha Watts operated a drug distribution operation and controlled her family “like a criminal enterprise,” using her children as enforcers. Payton Watts, her youngest son, was described as her primary enforcer, groomed from the age of 12 to serve as her “muscle” and allegedly given drugs by his mother to manipulate and control him. During court proceedings, it was also revealed that Soles had previously sold surveillance equipment to Samantha Watts—an act she reportedly viewed as a betrayal. Prosecutors believe she suspected him of stealing from her drug operation, which may have triggered the violent retaliation. South Carolina Twelfth Circuit Judge Michael Nettles, who presided over the sentencing, acknowledged the pain and suffering endured by Soles before his death. “Can you imagine what it would be like to break one of the biggest bones in your body and sit there for 11 hours?” he said, referring to Soles’ broken leg and prolonged suffering in a wheelchair prior to his murder.

Mom Turned Getaway Driver Raeanna Ruiz’s Deadly Family Ambush She said he was a stalker. The court said she was a murderer. In this true crime episode, we explore the disturbing case of Raeanna Ruiz—a 35-year-old Albuquerque mother who helped her kids track down and kill a man they believed was watching them. The plan? Confront him. The result? Cold-blooded murder. On October 18, 2023, Ruiz drove her 16-year-old daughter and 15-year-old son to an apartment complex where 19-year-old Santiago Roybal had taken refuge. Surveillance footage showed him sprinting away from a white SUV—Ruiz behind the wheel—while her daughter chased him with a gun and her son followed with a baseball bat. Moments later, Ruiz allegedly yelled, “Shoot through the door.” Roybal was killed. Another innocent bystander was injured. The motive? Ruiz’s daughter claimed Roybal had been “watching her through windows.” But there was no official report. Just paranoia, rage, and a mother who encouraged her children to take matters into their own hands. Police tied Ruiz to the crime using vehicle footage, social media messages, and her own confession. She’s now serving 20 years under New Mexico's truth-in-sentencing law, meaning she’ll do at least 17. Meanwhile, her kids—both underage—are facing open murder charges. This is more than a family tragedy. It’s a terrifying example of how one parent’s actions can unleash generational consequences.

Ret FBI Behavior Chief Breaks Down Kohberger’s Decision To Admit Guilt Bryan Kohberger shocked many when he admitted guilt to the murders that horrified Idaho and captured the nation's attention. But why did he suddenly choose to plead guilty instead of fighting it out in court? In this detailed episode, retired FBI Behavioral Chief Robin Dreeke provides expert analysis into the psychological motivations behind Kohberger’s dramatic plea decision. Dreeke carefully unpacks the potential factors influencing Kohberger, including the strength of the prosecution’s case, overwhelming physical evidence, and psychological traits like narcissism, control, and self-preservation. Did Kohberger finally realize he had no path to acquittal, or was his plea part of a broader strategy to assert control over the narrative, potentially denying victims' families the trial they desired? Listeners get a rare insight into how criminals evaluate plea options psychologically—particularly those with backgrounds in criminal justice education like Kohberger. Dreeke also discusses how Kohberger’s decision impacts victims' families, investigators, prosecutors, and the broader community seeking closure and justice. Drawing from decades of behavioral analysis, Robin Dreeke explains the often hidden emotional and psychological nuances of plea deals, offering listeners an in-depth understanding of the internal calculus of a convicted murderer. He highlights the significance of Kohberger’s background as a criminology student and how his academic knowledge may have played into his decision-making. This analysis will clarify why Kohberger ultimately chose to admit guilt, how his decision aligns with psychological profiling expectations, and what this means for criminal justice proceedings and closure for those affected by his crimes.

How To Recognize The Signs of An Incel (Even In Your Own Child), Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott Explains Description: What if the signs were there—and you just didn’t know what you were looking at? In this episode, psychotherapist Shavaun Scott helps us break down the early warning signs of incel ideology: what it looks like, how it develops, and how it can quietly take hold in someone’s life—sometimes even your own kid. We’re not talking about vague rebellion or teenage awkwardness. We’re talking about obsessive resentment toward women, dangerous black-and-white thinking, and an online community that encourages violence as a solution. Shavaun shares what she’s seen in her years of clinical work—when harmless isolation turns into something else. We walk through key behavioral changes, online activity, language shifts, and emotional red flags that may signal someone is slipping into a worldview that glorifies hatred and justifies harm. This is about pattern recognition—understanding when sadness becomes blame, and when blame turns toxic. If you’re a parent, educator, or someone working with young people, this episode is essential. This isn’t just a cultural problem—it’s a psychological one. And the sooner we recognize it, the more lives we can change—or save. #IncelWarningSigns #IncelMindset #ShavaunScott #BryanKohberger #OnlineRadicalization #ParentingToday #BlackpillCulture #ToxicIdeology #TrueCrimeAnalysis #HiddenKillersPodcast 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
