True Crime Headlines: The Murdaugh Murders, Aiden Fucci, Hacienda Healthcare & More

The DOJ had one job: release ALL the Epstein files by December 19th. Instead, we got "several hundred thousand" documents with a promise of more "in a couple weeks." Merry Christmas from the most transparent administration in history.In this episode, we break down everything wrong with the Epstein Files release...the broken search function, the 119 completely blacked-out pages, and why Bill Clinton's face is plastered everywhere while Trump is mysteriously absent. Plus: the tragic end to the Brown University shooting manhunt and what we know about the gunman's 25-year grudge.Follow the show:→ Instagram: @wesawthedevilpodcast→ Twitter/Facebook: @wesawthedevil→ Patreon: patreon.com/wesawthedevil→ Website: wesawthedevil.comKeywords/tags:Epstein files, Epstein documents released, Jeffrey Epstein, DOJ cover-up, Trump Epstein, Clinton Epstein photos, Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein island, government transparency, redacted documents, political podcast, Brown University shooting, MIT professor, mass shooting news, true crime, political commentary, liberal podcast, news podcast, current events December 2025Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/we-saw-the-devil-a-true-crime-podcast--4433638/support.Website: http://www.wesawthedevil.comPatreon: http://www.patreon.com/wesawthedevilDiscord: https://discord.gg/X2qYXdB4Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/WeSawtheDevilInstagram: http://www.instagram.com/wesawthedevilpodcast.

Holy crap, what a week. New Epstein photos just dropped featuring Trump, Clinton, Bannon, and yes, Jimmy Buffett. Trump's having another productive week bullying female reporters. Marco Rubio has declared war on accessible fonts because "tradition." MTG is trying to burn down the House on her way out the door. The FBI says Antifa is America's greatest threat but can't explain what Antifa actually is. Gavin Newsom is trolling his way to 2028. Linda McMahon made a cringe Grinch parody about student loan fraud. And a 27-year-old white nationalist virgin got into a Twitter beef with Piers Morgan about his sex life. America, 2025. What a time to be alive.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/we-saw-the-devil-a-true-crime-podcast--4433638/support.Website: http://www.wesawthedevil.comPatreon: http://www.patreon.com/wesawthedevilDiscord: https://discord.gg/X2qYXdB4Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/WeSawtheDevilInstagram: http://www.instagram.com/wesawthedevilpodcast.

Three families that looked perfect from the outside. Three monsters hiding in plain sight.The Rebecca Park Case  A 22 year old pregnant woman reconnects with her biological mother after 18 years of separation against her adoptive mother's warnings. Three weeks after disappearing, Rebecca is found dead in Michigan's Manistee National Forest. Her full term baby was cut from her body while she was still alive. Robin looks at the family dysfunction, the criminal histories of the men surrounding Rebecca, and the system failures that allowed predators to remain free.The Peternel Megachurch Scandal  An Indiana megachurch pastor co hosts a podcast called "Jesus, Sex & Politics" with the Lieutenant Governor, preaching sexual purity and traditional values. Then his son is arrested with over 200 files of child sexual abuse material including AI generated images so disturbing investigators called it the worst they'd seen.Kristina Joksimovic A former Miss Switzerland finalist posts photos of her perfect family on Instagram. Four weeks later, her husband strangles her to death, dismembers her body with a jigsaw, removes her womb, and purées parts of her in a blender while watching YouTube. Resources: National Domestic Violence Hotline: 1 800 799 7233 Text "START" to 88788 | thehotline.orgBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/we-saw-the-devil-a-true-crime-podcast--4433638/support.Website: http://www.wesawthedevil.comPatreon: http://www.patreon.com/wesawthedevilDiscord: https://discord.gg/X2qYXdB4Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/WeSawtheDevilInstagram: http://www.instagram.com/wesawthedevilpodcast.

This week on Red, White & Bruised, host Robin breaks down another week of chaos from the Trump administration, from potential war crimes to beefing with pop stars to gutting protections for trans prisoners.THE BIG STORY: Pete Hegseth's Boat Strike Scandal The Secretary of Defense is facing war crime allegations after reports surfaced that a second missile was fired at survivors of an initial strike on an alleged drug boat in the Caribbean. 87 people dead across 22 strikes. No evidence released. And Hegseth says he "fully supports" killing shipwrecked survivors. We dig into the Washington Post reporting, the congressional briefings, and why 75% of Americans want to see the receipts.ALSO THIS WEEK:Sabrina Carpenter vs. The White House: The administration used her song for ICE deportation propaganda. She called it "evil and disgusting." The White House called her "stupid." Also, they pissed off Franklin the Turtle. Yes, the children's character. We discuss.Trump's National Security Strategy: Great Replacement Theory is now official U.S. foreign policy. Europe is the enemy. Russia is a partner. This is fine.January 6 Pipe Bomb Arrest: They finally caught the guy. Plot twist: he's a Trump supporter who believed the Big Lie.National Parks Go MAGA: Free admission on MLK Day and Juneteenth? Gone. Free admission on Trump's birthday? You bet."Affordability" Is a Scam Now: Trump ran on lowering prices. Now he says the word "affordability" is a Democratic con job. The cognitive dissonance is breathtaking.Tennessee Special Election Results: A 13-point swing toward Democrats in a deep red district. What it means for 2026.Trump vs. Kaitlan Collins: Another day, another female journalist called "stupid and nasty."MTG's Revenge Tour: Marjorie Taylor Greene confirms Trump was "furious" about her support for releasing the Epstein files. "He said it was going to hurt people."DOJ Guts Trans Prison Protections: The administration quietly ordered inspectors to stop checking whether prisons protect trans inmates from rape. The cruelty is the point.Keywords/Tags: Trump administration, Pete Hegseth, war crimes, boat strikes, drug war, Caribbean, Sabrina Carpenter, ICE, deportation, Franklin the Turtle, National Security Strategy, Great Replacement Theory, January 6, pipe bombs, Brian Cole Jr., national parks, MLK Day, Juneteenth, Trump birthday, affordability, cost of living, inflation, Tennessee special election, Aftyn Behn, Kaitlan Collins, CNN, Marjorie Taylor Greene, MTG, Epstein files, DOJ, trans rights, LGBTQ, prison rape, PREA, political podcast, news podcast, left-leaning podcast, progressive politics, 2025 news, Trump 2025Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/we-saw-the-devil-a-true-crime-podcast--4433638/support.Website: http://www.wesawthedevil.comPatreon: http://www.patreon.com/wesawthedevilDiscord: https://discord.gg/X2qYXdB4Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/WeSawtheDevilInstagram: http://www.instagram.com/wesawthedevilpodcast.

This week on Red, White & Bruised: Tennessee's 7th District special election is somehow competitive in a Trump +22 district, and it's all thanks to Aftyn Behn, a progressive state rep who won't apologize for hating bachelorette parties or fighting corporate tax dodgers. We break down why her campaign is the blueprint Democrats need and why Republicans are in full panic mode.Then: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth allegedly ordered the military to "kill everybody" on a suspected drug boat, leading to a second strike on survivors—which is, you know, a war crime. Robin dissects the messy timeline, the conflicting White House stories, and why this scandal is just getting started.Plus: Luigi Mangione is back in court fighting to suppress evidence in the UnitedHealthcare CEO murder case, and his legal battle is revealing uncomfortable truths about America's broken healthcare system and why so many people can't condemn a murder without adding "but I understand why." And finally: Trump's revenge prosecution of James Comey spectacularly collapses after a federal judge rules the prosecutor's appointment was unconstitutional. Schadenfreude at its finest. Grab your coffee (or wine) and let's go.----------------Keywords: Aftyn Behn, Tennessee special election, 7th Congressional District, Pete Hegseth, war crimes, double-tap strikes, Caribbean strikes, Luigi Mangione, UnitedHealthcare CEO, Brian Thompson, James Comey, Trump administration, political revenge, DOJ indictment, progressive politics, left-leaning podcast, economic populism, healthcare reform, Medicare for All, corporate taxes, Nashville politics, constitutional law, Pam Bondi, political persecution, military law, Geneva Conventions, illegal orders, drug interdiction, weaponized DOJ, Matt Van Epps, Lindsey Halligan, Mark Kelly, Letitia James, Kash Patel, insurance industry, CEO murder, activist candidate, constitutional crisis, political commentary, snarky politics, political analysis, 2025 politics, Red White and Bruised, progressive podcast, Trump revenge, Democratic strategy, special election, Tennessee politicsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/we-saw-the-devil-a-true-crime-podcast--4433638/support.Website: http://www.wesawthedevil.comPatreon: http://www.patreon.com/wesawthedevilDiscord: https://discord.gg/X2qYXdB4Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/WeSawtheDevilInstagram: http://www.instagram.com/wesawthedevilpodcast.

In 2012, NYPD officer Gilberto Valle's wife made a horrifying discovery: thousands of online chats where her husband discussed kidnapping, torturing, cooking, and eating women...including her.Valle was a member of Dark Fetish Net, a website for extreme sexual fantasies, where he shared detailed plans about cannibalizing real people he knew. The FBI arrested Valle and charged him with conspiracy to commit kidnapping. The evidence was disturbing: graphic conversations about cooking women alive, over 100 unauthorized police database searches on potential victims, Google searches for "how to make chloroform," and real-world meetings with his targets. But here's the twist: Valle never kidnapped anyone. Never attempted to. Never took any concrete steps beyond online conversations and Google searches. Valle claimed it was all fantasy role-play. Prosecutors argued it was a genuine conspiracy. After a twelve-day trial featuring gruesome evidence and disturbing testimony, the jury convicted him. Valle faced life in federal prison...This case exploded into a national debate about thoughtcrime, free speech, and the limits of conspiracy law. Can you be imprisoned for disturbing fantasies? Where's the line between fantasy and criminal intent? Should online role-play be prosecutable as conspiracy?Join Robin as she breaks it down. ---------------------------------------------------------------Keywords: Gilberto Valle, Cannibal Cop, NYPD, conspiracy to kidnap, Dark Fetish Net, true crime podcast, criminal conspiracy, First Amendment, free speech, constitutional law, federal crime, wrongful conviction, jury verdict, acquittal, Judge Paul Gardephe, thoughtcrime, police corruption, database abuse, New York crime, federal prison, legal podcast, court case analysis, civil liberties, true crime 2024, criminal justice, sexual fetish, cannibalism, vorarephilia, internet crime, cyber crime, FBI investigation, federal trial, appeals court, Second Circuit, true threats, protected speech, actus reus, overt act, criminal intent, fantasy defenseBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/we-saw-the-devil-a-true-crime-podcast--4433638/support.Website: http://www.wesawthedevil.comPatreon: http://www.patreon.com/wesawthedevilDiscord: https://discord.gg/X2qYXdB4Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/WeSawtheDevilInstagram: http://www.instagram.com/wesawthedevilpodcast.

In this quick episode, Robin's taking a hard look at the shady past of Sylvia Browne, the self-proclaimed medium who made a killing off her "connections" with the dead. Then, we're turning our skeptical eye to the TikTok tarot readers who dish out life advice in 60 seconds or less. Is it all harmless fun, or is there a darker side to this digital divination trend? Let's have a frank discussion about the woo woo. #sylviabrowne #tarottok #psychicscams #skepticism #coldreading #tiktoktarot #woowatch2023 #scamcultureBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/we-saw-the-devil-a-true-crime-podcast--4433638/support.Website: http://www.wesawthedevil.comPatreon: http://www.patreon.com/wesawthedevilDiscord: https://discord.gg/X2qYXdB4Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/WeSawtheDevilInstagram: http://www.instagram.com/wesawthedevilpodcast.
