What the Law Can—and Can’t—Explain in the Death of Anna Kepner

What the Law Can—and Can’t—Explain in the Death of Anna Kepner

The death of 18-year-old Anna Kepner inside a cruise cabin has become one of the most puzzling cases of the year — because there is no outside suspect, no unknown figure on the ship, and no clear timeline. Just a small cabin, a concealed body, a 16-year-old stepsibling at the center of the investigation, and a family whose internal conflicts are now spilling into custody court.

Tonight, Hidden Killers takes a hard look at the legal landscape of this case — not through rumor or speculation, but through what the law actually allows. We’re joined by defense attorney and former prosecutor Bob Motta, breaking down the pathways investigators are required to consider in cases involving minors, trauma, panic responses, and potential accidental mechanisms.

What does it mean when the stepsibling’s own grandmother says he “doesn’t remember what happened” and was “an emotional wreck”? Is that trauma? A shutdown? A fear response? A sign of guilt? Or the kind of adolescent dissociation that completely derails both prosecution and defense strategy?

We also examine the full spectrum of possible charges — from no charges to involuntary manslaughter, negligent homicide, assault leading to death, or a concealment-only scenario. And just as importantly: which charges are legally off the table.

Then we drill into the Fifth Amendment play by the stepmother. What does invoking the Fifth in a custody battle mean? And what does it absolutely not mean?

Finally, we confront the looming reality: many juvenile cases never go to trial. Could the truth of what happened inside that cabin remain sealed forever?

Tonight, we cut through the noise and get to the legal truth — the uncomfortable, messy, complicated truth — behind the death of Anna Kepner.

Prince Andrew EXPOSED: Virginia Giuffre’s Full Story of Power, Privilege & Exploitation

Prince Andrew EXPOSED: Virginia Giuffre’s Full Story of Power, Privilege & Exploitation

He was born into royalty — a man the world was taught to bow to. But behind the medals and the palace walls, Prince Andrew’s life intersected with one of the darkest criminal networks in modern history. Virginia Giuffre was seventeen when she says Ghislaine Maxwell recruited her for Jeffrey Epstein — a man who used wealth and power to prey on young girls while the world looked the other way. And according to Virginia, one of the men she was trafficked to was Prince Andrew, Duke of York — the Queen’s own son. In this episode of Hidden Killers, Tony Brueski dives deep into Giuffre’s account: how she met Andrew, the infamous photo, the alleged encounters in London, New York, and Epstein’s private island — and how the royal family worked overtime to bury the fallout. From the BBC interview that imploded Andrew’s reputation to the multimillion-dollar settlement that silenced the courtroom, this is the full story — the arrogance, the power, the protection, and the survivor who refused to stay quiet. Giuffre’s new memoir, Nobody’s Girl, exposes more than just one man’s depravity — it reveals a network of enablers who made sure justice stopped where power began. This isn’t tabloid gossip. This is a story about accountability — and what happens when a survivor dares to stand up to royalty. 🎙️ Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski – exposing the power, privilege, and hypocrisy behind the crimes the elite try to hide. #PrinceAndrew #VirginiaGiuffre #JeffreyEpstein #GhislaineMaxwell #RoyalScandal #HiddenKillers #TrueCrime #EpsteinNetwork #SurvivorStories #JusticeForVictims Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Golden State Killer Prosecutor Thien Ho Reveals What Joseph DeAngelo Was Really Like Behind the Scenes

Golden State Killer Prosecutor Thien Ho Reveals What Joseph DeAngelo Was Really Like Behind the Scenes

When Joseph DeAngelo — the Golden State Killer — was finally unmasked in 2018, the world saw an old man slumped in a wheelchair. But according to Sacramento DA Thien Ho, it was all an act. In this exclusive conversation, Tony Brueski goes behind the headlines with Ho, the man who stood across the courtroom from one of America’s most elusive serial predators. From the whispered “crazy act” DeAngelo tried to pull in the interrogation room to the frail performance he staged in court, Ho explains how the prosecution saw through every layer of manipulation. But this story isn’t about glorifying a killer — it’s about the survivors. Ho shares how he centered their voices, the emotional weight of their impact statements, and the unforgettable moment one woman told DeAngelo, “I’m not afraid of you anymore.” The People vs. The Golden State Killer gives us the first insider look at the battle between truth and illusion — and how one prosecutor helped make history by exposing the evil hiding behind a mask of normalcy. #GoldenStateKiller #ThienHo #JosephDeAngelo #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimePodcast #Justice #Prosecution #DNAEvidence #EastAreaRapist #CrimeStories Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
