Why Hasn't D4vd Been Charged? FBI Agent & Prosecutor Unpack Celeste's Case Tesla, Timeline, and a Celebrity’s Silence — FBI & Legal Experts on D4vd Case

The Banker Behind Murdaugh: Russell Laffitte Sentenced for Fraud & Conspiracy Russell Laffitte was once the golden boy of South Carolina banking—CEO of Palmetto State Bank, “Independent Banker of the Year,” heir to a century-old family dynasty. Now, he’s headed to federal prison. In this episode of Hidden Killers, host Tony Brueski takes you inside the courtroom and beyond, unpacking the full story behind Laffitte’s five-year federal sentence for bank fraud, conspiracy, and wire fraud—all committed to prop up none other than convicted killer Alex Murdaugh. This isn’t just about dirty money—it’s about the quiet power that makes crimes like Murdaugh’s possible. Laffitte didn’t pull the trigger. But he moved the money. He signed the loans. He drained trust accounts meant for injured clients and grieving families. And for years, he helped Alex Murdaugh steal from the people who needed protection most. We break down how the scheme worked, who got hurt, and why Laffitte finally pleaded guilty—despite originally fighting the charges. We also explore what his downfall says about the toxic loyalty, unchecked privilege, and small-town dynasties that enabled Murdaugh to wreak havoc for over a decade. Was Laffitte a victim of charm and pressure—or was he always this willing to betray the public trust? And how many more accomplices are still hiding in plain sight? With new details from federal documents, court transcripts, and expert analysis, this is the story of what happens when the people who are supposed to protect the system… become part of the rot. 👉 Subscribe for more deep dives into the Murdaugh web of deception—and the enablers who kept it spinning.

"Too Disturbing to See”: Judge Blocks Graphic Kohberger Crime Scene Photos Should the worst moments of someone’s life be public forever? In this gripping episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, we unpack a powerful new court ruling in the Bryan Kohberger case—one that challenges how far the public’s right to know really goes. Idaho Judge Megan Marshall has officially barred the release of graphic crime scene photos depicting the slain bodies of four University of Idaho students: Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin. Why does this matter? Because we’re living in an age where “transparency” often doubles as clickbait. The photos in question, described by the judge as “incredibly disturbing,” were requested under Idaho’s Public Records Act. But citing emotional trauma to the families and legal precedent around survivor privacy, the court drew a clear line: some truths don’t need to be seen to be known. We break down the legal framework behind the ruling, including the landmark National Archives v. Favish decision and the Ninth Circuit’s recognition of post-mortem privacy. We also explore the tension between legitimate public interest and pure morbid curiosity—especially in the digital age where true crime content gets instantly repurposed, decontextualized, and weaponized online. What gets lost when we treat victim imagery as “just another post”? And what do we actually gain when the system chooses dignity over spectacle? This is not just a legal story—it’s a cultural reckoning. One that asks: Is it justice if the families suffer more after the verdict is in? Watch now as we separate justice from voyeurism—and explain why this ruling may reshape the future of transparency in high-profile true crime cases.

Why Hasn’t Anyone Been Charged In D4VD Tesla Death Case? FBI Agent Breaks Down the Gaps Celeste Rivas Hernandez was found dead in the front trunk of a Tesla that had been marked, cited, and towed — and no one noticed for weeks. One year earlier, she was reported missing. Five months later, she was caught on video near her family’s home. And now, a month after her body was discovered, there’s still no arrest. No charges. No confirmed suspect. This case isn’t closed — but it’s not moving either. In this Hidden Killers segment, retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer returns to walk us through the critical investigative red flags law enforcement should be acting on right now. She’s not speculating. She’s speaking as someone who’s handled these cases firsthand — when the pressure is high, the evidence is fading, and the public is losing trust. She covers: The tow yard failures — and what investigators may have missed in that 72-hour window How digital evidence from the Tesla or cell phones should be prioritized (and why delays can destroy a case) What the FBI would look for in the family’s timeline gaps if Celeste was known to be back home Whether law enforcement is being too cautious — or just doesn’t have the evidence Why the lack of a crime scene makes this exponentially harder — and what you chase when you have no location, no cause of death, and no murder weapon This is a behind-the-scenes look at how the federal system would handle this investigation, what law enforcement should be doing today — and why they may already be running out of time.

D4VD’s Tesla, a Body, and No Arrests: FBI Veteran Unpacks the Investigation Celeste Rivas Hernandez was just 13 when she was reported missing in April 2024. But five months later, a home surveillance camera caught her outside her house — alive. Then, a year later to the day, her decomposed body was found in the front trunk of a Tesla registered to rising music artist d4vd. No arrests. No suspect. And the LAPD says it’s still “unclear whether there’s any criminal culpability beyond concealment.” So how does this look through federal eyes? In this episode, retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer joins Hidden Killers to walk us through the investigation — step by step — the way it would be handled by a federal team. She breaks down the real priorities when a child is found dead in a vehicle. What evidence disappears first. What should’ve been locked down within hours. And what law enforcement could still be missing entirely. We dig into: The administrative timeline of the Tesla — marked, ticketed, towed, then searched How the gap between April 2024 and Sept 2025 should’ve been reconstructed Why chain of custody around viral evidence like the Tesla keycard could tank a case How the FBI uses vehicle telemetry, phone records, and location data to build a profile — even when no cause of death is determined And what Jennifer would do right now if this case landed back on her desk If you’ve been asking, Where are the charges? — this is the conversation that finally explains why we might not have them yet. And what it’s going to take to make sure this case doesn’t go cold. 🔖 HASHTAGS  #CelesteRivasHernandez #TrueCrime #d4vd #TeslaFrunk #FBIInvestigation #JenniferCoffindaffer #MissingChildren #JusticeForCeleste #HiddenKillers #CrimeSceneAnalysis Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Brian Walshe Trial: Why Even a ‘Dirty Cop’ Can’t Save You From Your Own Google Searches As the October 20th trial date approaches, the case against Brian Walshe—the Massachusetts father accused of murdering and dismembering his wife, Ana Walshe—has become one of the most closely watched legal battles in the state. And it’s not just the shocking allegations at stake. The defense is trying to pull the shadow of another high‑profile case—the Karen Read investigation—straight into this courtroom. In this episode, we break down how Walshe’s attorneys are arguing that Norfolk County is too tainted for a fair trial. They’re pointing to the now‑famous misconduct of former State Trooper Michael Proctor, who was removed from the Read case after crude, biased texts surfaced. Their message to the court: if the system was “dirty” there, it can’t be trusted here. But prosecutors say the Walshe case stands on its own—and the evidence they’re about to put in front of a jury may prove it. We examine the digital footprint investigators say Brian Walshe left in the hours and days after Ana disappeared: chilling Google searches about body disposal, decomposition, and whether you can be charged without a body. We look at the physical evidence pulled from a Swampscott dumpster—items prosecutors say carry Ana’s DNA, including a rug, jewelry, and a watch photographed on her wrist just hours before she vanished. This is where modern crime meets modern accountability: when your own clicks, purchases, and discarded objects become the star witnesses against you. In this episode, we unpack why the defense’s “crooked cop” strategy may falter in the face of independent, forensic evidence—and what this case tells us about how juries weigh misconduct claims against hard data. #BrianWalshe #AnaWalshe #KarenRead #TrueCrime #MurderTrial #DigitalForensics #LegalStrategy #CrimeAndJustice #HiddenKillers #CourtroomDrama Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Why Hasn't D4vd Been Charged?  FBI Agent & Prosecutor Unpack Celeste's Case Tesla, Timeline, and a Celebrity’s Silence — FBI & Legal Experts on D4vd Case How does a 13-year-old vanish, reappear on camera months later, and still end up dead in the trunk of a Tesla? And how does that car — tied to a rising music star — sit for days on a street, then in a tow yard, before anyone makes the discovery? In this episode of Hidden Killers Live, Tony Brueski is joined by retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer and defense attorney/former prosecutor Eric Faddis to break down the unanswered questions in the Celeste Rivas Hernandez / d4vd case. Coffindaffer brings the federal playbook to the table: how agents work fractured timelines, what evidence degrades the fastest in cases like this, and whether the Tesla’s digital logs could be the silent witness that cracks the case. She also explains why the lack of charges doesn’t necessarily mean investigators have nothing — it may mean they’re chasing something bigger. Then Faddis steps in to unpack the legal side. What does it mean when LAPD says it’s “unclear if there’s criminal culpability beyond concealment”? Could a prosecutor really stop at improper disposal of a body, even with a celebrity connection? And is the silence from d4vd’s camp a smart legal strategy — or a growing liability? Finally, the conversation pivots to Sean 'Diddy' Combs, facing a sentencing battle that could swing from just over a year to more than a decade in federal prison. Faddis explains the tug-of-war between prosecution and defense — and what it says about how celebrity defendants are treated when their past finally collides with federal law. Two cases. Two headlines. One theme: when the system bends under the weight of fame, does justice break?  Hashtags #CelesteRivasHernandez #D4vd #TeslaCase #JenniferCoffindaffer #EricFaddis #HiddenKillersLive #TrueCrimeDiscussion #DiddySentencing #CelebrityJustice #TrueCrimeCommunity Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

“Do You Think I Killed Her?” Sam Goldberg’s Haunting Words About Ellen Greenberg What happens when the system doesn’t just fail you — it rewrites the story entirely? In this emotionally raw and deeply insightful episode of Hidden Killers Live, host Tony Brueski is joined by psychotherapist Shavaun Scott to discuss the most disturbing layer of the Ellen Greenberg case: the aftermath. After Ellen was found with 20 stab wounds — including 10 to the back of her neck — the medical examiner originally ruled her death a homicide. But that ruling was quietly reversed after a meeting with police. No new evidence. No second autopsy. Just a narrative pivot that reshaped everything. And because it was ruled a suicide, the apartment wasn’t preserved. It was cleaned. Her devices were removed by her fiancé’s uncle. Chain of custody was destroyed. Crime scene photos were incomplete. And the investigation? Essentially shut down. In this segment, we explore the psychological impact of institutional betrayal — not just on Ellen’s family, but on every family forced to accept a story that doesn’t make sense. We also dig into: Why families are often shamed into silence when they challenge suicide rulings What it means when someone close to the victim — like a fiancé — shows no visible grief or curiosity How mental health labels like “anxious” are weaponized to close cases And whether emotional closure is still possible when legal justice never comes Ellen Greenberg’s case isn’t just a forensic failure — it’s a psychological one. And if this is what happens when families ask questions, what does that say about how we treat grief, truth, and the dead? Sam Goldberg, Ellen Greenberg’s fiancé at the time of her death, has never been charged with any crime in connection to this case. He has consistently maintained that Ellen’s death was a suicide. All individuals mentioned in this segment are presumed innocent unless proven otherwise. 🧵 Hashtags #EllenGreenberg #HiddenKillersLive #ShavaunScott #DeathInApartment603 #InstitutionalFailure #CrimeSceneCoverup #JusticeForEllen #MentalHealth #GriefPsychology #TrueCrimeCommunity Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

From Teacher to Tragedy: Breaking Down Ellen Greenberg’s Mental State | Psych Expert Weighs In Was Ellen Greenberg’s death the result of a private mental health spiral — or a sign of something far more sinister?  In this deeply psychological episode of Hidden Killers Live, we’re joined by psychotherapist Shavaun Scott to explore the emotional and behavioral profile of Ellen Greenberg as portrayed in the new Hulu documentary Death in Apartment 603. We begin not with the crime scene — but with the person. Ellen was a 27-year-old first-grade teacher, beloved by her students and deeply connected to her family and friends. She was newly engaged. Planning a wedding. Dreaming of a family. So how did we go from that… to 20 stab wounds and a suicide ruling? In this episode, we walk through three major psychological layers of the case: 🔹 Ellen’s emotional withdrawal — When she started pulling back from friends and stopped wearing her engagement ring, was it anxiety, relationship strain… or something more dangerous? 🔹 The medical record — Ellen had seen a psychiatrist three times and was prescribed Klonopin and Ambien. But she never disclosed suicidal thoughts. In fact, her doctor noted that she smiled when talking about her fiancé. So how did that turn into the primary justification for a suicide ruling? 🔹 The body tells a different story — Ellen had 20 stab wounds, including 10 to the back of her neck, and bruises in various stages of healing. We ask: what does that kind of physical trauma suggest psychologically — especially in a case with no note, no history of self-harm, and no pattern of detachment? Together with Shavaun, we try to answer one central question: Does this case look anything like suicide — or have we all been forced to believe something that simply doesn’t make psychological sense? Sam Goldberg, Ellen Greenberg’s fiancé at the time of her death, has never been charged with any crime in connection to this case. He has consistently maintained that Ellen’s death was a suicide. All individuals mentioned in this segment are presumed innocent unless proven otherwise. 🧵 Hashtags #EllenGreenberg #PsychologicalAnalysis #HiddenKillersLive #DeathInApartment603 #ShavaunScott #TrueCrime #MentalHealth #SuicideOrHomicide #JusticeForEllen #TrueCrimePsychology Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Charlie Kirk Assassination: The Texts, the Note, and the Rooftop Shot – Full Timeline of Tyler Robinson & Lance Twiggs Charlie Kirk was shot and killed on the rooftop of a Utah college campus in broad daylight. The suspect? A 22-year-old man named Tyler Robinson, now facing a possible death sentence. But the case isn’t just about a single shot—it’s about a pattern. A digital trail. And a chilling note hidden under a keyboard. In this full, fact-driven breakdown, we walk you through every moment of the case—from the alleged planning stage and Discord chats to the rooftop surveillance footage, the bolt-action rifle found in the woods, and the DNA forensics prosecutors say tie it all together. We dive into the text message confession allegedly sent to Robinson’s romantic partner and roommate, identified by media as Lance Twiggs. In those messages, prosecutors say Robinson admits to the crime, talks about deleting evidence, and even explains the strange engravings found on the bullets. Then there's the note—handwritten and left under his keyboard—that reads: “I had the opportunity to take out Charlie Kirk and I’m going to take it.” From law enforcement’s search of the townhouse to the sudden disappearance of Twiggs (now reportedly in protective custody), we explore every confirmed fact in this timeline-based deep dive. We also explain what the current court filings say, what the charges mean—including multiple felonies and enhancements—and what to expect in the months ahead as Robinson’s team prepares for a capital defense. No speculation. No spin. Just a clear, grounded walkthrough of a politically charged case with national implications.

Ellen Greenberg Case: The Most Botched Crime Scene Cover-Up You’ve Never Heard Of What if the crime scene was already erased… before police ever began investigating? In this segment of Hidden Killers Live, we dig deep into the moments that should have triggered a full-blown homicide investigation in the death of Ellen Greenberg — but instead, signaled something very different: silence, shortcuts, and possibly, cover-up. We examine Sam Goldberg’s behavior, as witnessed by a building staffer who saw him pacing the hallway, visibly agitated, shouting that he was going to "knock the f---ing door down." And then, we look at what happened after Ellen was pronounced dead — when the police labeled it suicide on scene, and the apartment was released, not preserved. By the very next day, professional crime scene cleaners were scrubbing the apartment. Items were moved. Dishes were run through the dishwasher. And then, a man who wasn’t even related to Ellen — her fiancé’s uncle — was allowed inside to remove her electronic devices, including laptops and phones, before any forensic work was done. That uncle? A politically connected Philadelphia attorney. From there, it only gets more troubling:  • Devices were returned days later, with no clear chain of custody.  • The original homicide ruling by the medical examiner was reversed — without new forensic evidence.  • Police later cited mental health issues, based on statements from the same person who discovered her. And years later? That same person reportedly never questioned the suicide ruling and told others, “That’s just what it was.” This isn’t just bad policing. This is what it looks like when a homicide becomes a narrative control exercise. And the closer you look, the worse it gets. Was this a cover-up? Or was it a case of every system doing the wrong thing at the worst possible time? Let’s break it down. Sam Goldberg, Ellen Greenberg’s fiancé at the time of her death, has never been charged with any crime in connection to this case. He has consistently maintained that Ellen’s death was a suicide. All individuals mentioned in this segment are presumed innocent unless proven otherwise. 🧵 Hashtags #EllenGreenberg #CrimeSceneCoverup #TrueCrime #HiddenKillersLive #JusticeForEllen #CrimeSceneFailure #HuluDoc #HomicideInvestigation #DigitalEvidence #ChainOfCustody Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
