How Kohberger Fooled His Professor: Inside the Katherine Ramsland Interview

Predators in Uniform – Ret. FBI Robin Dreeke Breaks Down the Sandra Birchmore Case Description: Sandra Birchmore was 23, pregnant, and alone when she was found dead in her Canton, Massachusetts apartment in 2021. Her death was ruled a suicide. That might have been the end of it—until federal investigators got involved. What they uncovered changed everything. Prosecutors now say Sandra was groomed and exploited for years by Stoughton Police Officer Matthew Farwell—who met her when she was just 13 through the department’s Explorer Program. Farwell is now federally indicted for her murder. But this case isn’t just about one man. It’s about a culture that allowed a predator to operate in plain sight, inside a structured, youth-focused law enforcement program, with little oversight and no accountability. In this episode, retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke—former Chief of the Bureau’s Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program—joins us to break down exactly how predators like Farwell use the uniform as camouflage. He explains how authority figures manipulate young victims, how predators test boundaries through secrecy and personalization, and how organizations with rigid hierarchy and internal loyalty often become enablers without realizing it. We talk about Sandra’s need for structure, the illusion of safety the Explorer program promised, and how that trust was twisted into a years-long pattern of abuse, isolation, and control. Robin also explores why no one intervened, how grooming often hides behind “mentorship,” and why even well-meaning departments fail to see the warning signs—until it's too late. This is the story of one victim. But it's also a warning for every community. Because when predators wear badges, the danger isn’t just what they do—it’s who helps them get away with it. #SandraBirchmore #RobinDreeke #PredatorsInUniform #LawEnforcementAbuse #ExplorerProgram #FBIBehavioralAnalysis #HiddenKillersPodcast #TonyBrueski #TrueCrimePodcast #InstitutionalFailure 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 Mind of Barry Morphew: Control, Denial & a Deadly Silence Description: What happens when control becomes the only currency in a marriage? In this psychological deep dive, we dissect the chilling behavioral patterns of Barry Morphew—the man at the center of one of Colorado’s most disturbing true crime stories. Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott joins us to unpack the profile behind the headlines. Barry’s wife, Suzanne, disappeared on Mother’s Day 2020. But her story didn’t end there. Three years later, her remains were found—buried, silenced, and dosed with a rare tranquilizer. And yet, Barry continues to claim innocence, pointing fingers everywhere but inward. We examine the psychological fingerprints Barry allegedly left behind: the calculated calm, the compulsive need to manage perception, and the eerie absence of visible grief. Was this the mind of a man in denial—or something darker? From Suzanne’s final messages to Barry’s surveillance-dodging behavior, this episode explores how control, once unchecked, can become deadly. This isn’t about sensationalism. It’s about understanding how emotional abuse, narcissistic traits, and denial can culminate in silence—deadly silence. Join us for a conversation that pushes past the headlines and into the psychology of what may have really happened.

Inside The NEW Charges Against Barry Morphew: Defense Attorney Questions If Jury Will Believe Description: Barry Morphew is facing new murder charges in 2025—nearly three years after his first case was dismissed. This time, prosecutors are armed with something they didn’t have before: Suzanne Morphew’s remains, discovered in a shallow grave, and forensic analysis showing BAM—a rare animal tranquilizer—was present in her bones. But does this forensic discovery change the game, or are prosecutors still standing on shaky ground? In this episode, we’re joined by Defense Attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis to break down the anatomy of the new charges. How strong is the forensic evidence, really? And will a jury be willing to convict without a weapon, a confession, or a confirmed cause of death? We dig into the differences between the original case and the 2025 re-indictment. What new strategies might the prosecution use this time around? And how might the defense punch holes in a narrative that’s still largely circumstantial? Eric offers his legal take on how jurors typically react to technical forensic evidence—especially rare substances like BAM that carry emotional weight but can be attacked for lack of direct sourcing. We also explore the legal risk of retrying a case after the original prosecution team was disbarred for discovery violations. Can the new team escape the shadow of those failures, or will the defense use them to build a new layer of doubt? If you want to understand the legal chess match behind the headlines, this episode is for you. High stakes, high scrutiny, and a justice system trying to clean up its own mess.

How Kohberger Fooled His Professor: Inside the Katherine Ramsland Interview In this compelling episode, we break down the explosive July 1 interview on NewsNation, where investigative reporter Brian Entin sits down with renowned forensic psychologist and former DeSales University professor Dr. Katherine Ramsland, the very woman who taught—and now admits—she was completely fooled by Bryan Kohberger during his criminology studies. For years, Ramsland described Kohberger as a model student: respectful, intelligent, curious—even one she imagined leaving a positive mark on the field. Yet, the man who walked through her classroom doors is the same one who allegedly murdered four University of Idaho students. What we cover in this episode: Ramsland's shock and self-reflection: Hear how her world was rocked, as she questions whether her own teachings may have inadvertently inspired Kohberger—and what that means for professors across the country. tiktok.com+3tiktok.com+3youtube.com+3x.com+6the-sun.com+6nypost.com+6 How he deceived the expert: We unpack what Ramsland says he did right—and how he kept his dark motives hidden beneath a veneer of respectability and academic curiosity. The missing motive: Without a full motive in the plea deal, Ramsland is left with questions—questions only someone who knew him personally could ask. We explore what they are and how far Ramsland plans to go in uncovering the truth. the-sun.com+1nypost.com+1 No sugarcoating, no fluff: This is a real-time psychological autopsy—from the initial arrest to the plea—and how a killer can hide in plain sight under the guise of a model student. Join us for an intimate and unfiltered discussion on how a criminology classroom turned into the last place anyone would expect to find a murderer—and what we all should be watching for next.

Registered Sex Offender Admits to Murder-for-Hire Plot Against 12-Year-Old He Lured and Assaulted PROVIDENCE, R.I. — A 30-year-old Rhode Island man has pleaded guilty in federal court to luring a 12-year-old girl from her middle school, sexually assaulting her, and then attempting to hire a hitman from prison to silence her. Chandler J. Cardente, already a registered sex offender, entered the plea Thursday to three charges: enticement of a minor, committing a felony while required to register, and interstate murder-for-hire, Acting U.S. Attorney Sara Miron Bloom announced. Online deception and abduction Investigators say Cardente posed as a 17-year-old on social media to befriend the Burrillville Middle School student in the fall of 2021. On Dec. 10, after classes let out, the girl walked across a soccer field, through nearby woods, and climbed into Cardente’s car on Route 102. When the child was reported missing, Burrillville police tracked her online messages and identified Cardente as the man she was with. Realizing officers were closing in, he pushed the girl from the vehicle on Jefferson Boulevard in Warwick. Warwick police soon found her curled up on the roadside; she told officers she had been assaulted. Plot hatched behind bars Cardente was arrested later that day in Cranston and booked into the Adult Correctional Institutions (ACI). While awaiting trial, he phoned what he believed was a go-between for a contract killer, offering $200 cash and about $1,500 in equipment to ensure the girl “ended up dead” because, he said, she was “a witness.” The “contractor” was actually an undercover police officer recording the call. Prior record and penalties Cardente had previously been convicted in state court of child molestation and was under lifetime registration requirements when he committed the new crimes. Federal prosecutors say he now faces a mandatory minimum of 10 years in prison on the enticement count alone, with potential decades more because of the murder-for-hire scheme and his status as a registered offender. He remains held without bail at the ACI. Sentencing is scheduled for April 23 in U.S. District Court, where Cardente also faces separate state charges stemming from the assault and abduction.

This was recorded BEFORE Bryan Kohberger's Plea Deal- Ret FBI Breaks Down The Ridiculous 3rd Party Claim Kohberger's Team Wanted You To Believe In a startling courtroom twist, Bryan Kohberger’s defense team attempted to introduce the notion of an unidentified third-party culprit responsible for the gruesome murders of four Idaho college students. Judge Hippler swiftly rejected this controversial tactic, dismissing it as unsubstantiated and unsupported by credible evidence. While some saw this as an act of legal desperation, others wonder if there’s a deeper strategic motivation behind such an unusual and seemingly far-fetched claim. Retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke, a respected expert in human behavior, credibility analysis, and jury psychology, offers a detailed breakdown of why such third-party claims rarely find traction in high-stakes murder trials. Robin explores the psychological strategies employed by defense attorneys in introducing alternative suspects, even when they know the odds of acceptance are slim. Could the defense have hoped to subtly introduce doubt in jurors' minds before trial even begins? Is Anne Taylor intentionally planting seeds of confusion and uncertainty among potential jurors who inevitably follow news coverage closely? Robin dissects these subtle tactics, explaining the psychological dynamics that defense teams leverage to influence juror perceptions long before jury selection occurs. Drawing from extensive courtroom experience, Robin discusses real-world examples illustrating why juries typically reject vague third-party claims and how such strategies can potentially backfire, making the defense appear desperate rather than strategic. Robin also highlights the critical difference between effective doubt creation and overplaying one’s hand with weak, unsupported claims. Join us for an insightful, behind-the-scenes look at courtroom strategies, psychological manipulation, and how modern trial tactics increasingly rely on shaping public perception. Discover why, even when claims seem absurd, they might serve a deeper strategic purpose in today's complex legal landscape.

Sandra Birchmore Thought It Was Love, Then Life Ended Description: Sandra Birchmore was just 23 and pregnant when she was found dead in her Canton, Massachusetts apartment in 2021. The initial ruling? Suicide. But according to federal prosecutors, this was no mental health crisis—it was a murder designed to silence years of grooming and abuse at the hands of a police officer she trusted. In this episode, we speak with psychotherapist Shavaun Scott to unpack the psychology behind coercive control, trauma bonding, and why so many victims of abuse believe they’re in love with their predator. What happens when the only affection you’ve ever known is transactional? And what happens when it ends in death? This isn’t just a cautionary tale—it’s a gut punch reminder of how abuse hides in plain sight. If you think you understand consent, grooming, or survivor psychology, this conversation will challenge everything. #SandraBirchmore #TrueCrime #TraumaBonding #PoliceAbuse #ShavaunScott #CoerciveControl #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #TrueCrimeTherapy #VictimPsychology 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 verdict is in — and it's as baffling as it is infuriating. After a high-stakes federal trial full of disturbing allegations, celebrity testimonies, and a very real surveillance video of Sean “Diddy” Combs assaulting Cassie Ventura, the jury returned with a verdict that has everyone talking. In this episode, we break down exactly what happened in the courtroom, how Diddy was found guilty on two federal charges of transporting women across state lines for prostitution, and yet acquitted on the most serious charges: sex trafficking, racketeering, and conspiracy. We explore what this split verdict tells us about the justice system, the burden of proof in high-profile cases, and the chilling implications for survivors everywhere. This isn't just legal nuance — it's a masterclass in power dynamics, influence, and how even damning video evidence doesn't always guarantee a conviction when billions and celebrity status are involved. We also dig into why Diddy is still behind bars — that's right, he hasn’t walked free — and what comes next as he faces a sentencing phase that could result in up to 20 years in prison. Will the judge make an example of him, or will influence and image rehabilitation once again shape the outcome? If you're looking for sharp, unfiltered true crime commentary with all the legal clarity and none of the fluff, this episode’s for you. 📌 Subscribe for more hard-hitting breakdowns of the most high-profile cases in America. #DiddyVerdict #TrueCrime #SeanCombsTrial #CassieVentura #SexTraffickingTrial #JusticeSystem #DiddyTrialBreakdown #VerdictExplained #CelebrityJustice #TrueCrimePodcast

She Planned to Leave—Now She’s Gone. Did Barry Morphew Snap? Description: Three days before she vanished, Suzanne Morphew sent Barry a text that cut through years of silence: “I’m done.” Investigators say that message—paired with months of private notes documenting fear, emotional distress, and a long-hidden affair—was the final straw in a collapsing marriage. In this episode, defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis joins us to explore a question at the heart of the prosecution’s case: Did Barry Morphew snap? We break down the prosecution’s narrative: Suzanne was preparing to leave. Barry was losing control. The discovery of Suzanne’s remains years later, dosed with a rare tranquilizer only Barry had access to, shifted the case from suspicion to re-indictment. But is the story as airtight as it sounds? Eric takes us inside the legal framework of “trigger-point” violence—how prosecutors connect emotional upheaval to criminal motive, and how defense teams combat that with narratives of coincidence, character, and complexity. Could a single message—combined with circumstantial evidence—be enough to push this case over the reasonable doubt line? We also explore the psychological stakes. What happens when emotional dependency, betrayal, and control collide? And does the timing of Barry’s alleged actions suggest a heat-of-the-moment response or calculated escalation? Whether you think Barry is a wrongfully accused husband or a man who couldn’t let go, this conversation unpacks the psychological and legal tightrope this case walks—and whether the prosecution can finally balance it in their favor.
