​Bryan Kohberger’s Selfie of Darkness: The Trophy, the Knife, and the Mind of a Killer | 2025 Year in Review

Donna & Charlie Adelson Behind Bars: Tantrums, Tablets, and Toe Trauma Dan Markel was murdered in 2014 in one of the most shocking custody-related hit jobs in American legal history. Now that two of the key players—Donna and Charlie Adelson—are behind bars, how are they handling it? Spoiler: Not well. In this voice-driven episode of Hidden Killers, we pull the curtain back on life behind bars for the once-powerful Adelsons. Donna’s jailhouse meltdown just nine days after her conviction is fully documented in prison logs—loud sobbing, door-pounding, and furious rants about judges and jurors, all while she unknowingly feeds jailhouse informants. Meanwhile, Charlie Adelson, convicted of murder, has his own jailhouse drama. Caught on video by Spill the Crime Tea, Charlie explodes over his big toe being run over by a jail door. He spews racial slurs, berates staff, then folds like a lawn chair when a lieutenant arrives. This isn’t a story of redemption. It’s the unraveling of a family that thought the rules didn’t apply to them. We dig into:  – The official jail logs documenting Donna’s outbursts  – Charlie’s unhinged toe tirade caught on camera  – What these behaviors tell us about entitlement, narcissism, and collapse  – How the Adelsons are adjusting—or failing to—in the harsh reality of incarceration Welcome to the downfall. No more dental dynasty. Just inmate numbers, cold walls, and tablets that barely charge. Watch now and decide for yourself: are the Adelsons victims of injustice, or just finally out of excuses? 🔍 Keywords Donna Adelson, Charlie Adelson, Adelson family, Dan Markel murder, prison logs, jailhouse meltdown, true crime podcast, Hidden Killers, Surviving the Survivor, Wendy Adelson, Leon County Jail, jailhouse footage, Florida true crime, criminal psychology, post-conviction behavior, narcissistic breakdown Hashtags #DonnaAdelson #CharlieAdelson #DanMarkel #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #PrisonLife #JailhouseMeltdown #AdelsonFamily #JusticeServed #SurvivingTheSurvivor Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

False Confessions, No Evidence: Inside the Yogurt Shop Murders Miscarriage of Justice In this powerful segment of Hidden Killers Live, we continue watching the APD press conference and confront one of the most devastating truths about this case: the state prosecuted and convicted the wrong men. Michael Scott and Robert Springsteen were convicted in 2001 and 2002, based on confessions taken after 18- and 5-hour interrogations respectively. No physical evidence tied them to the crime scene. They were convicted anyway. In 2009, DNA evidence excluded them—and charges were finally dropped. But the damage was already done. Springsteen had been sentenced to death. Scott to life. We play back the portion of the press conference where Travis County DA Jose Garza publicly acknowledges their innocence—and we react to the gravity of what that admission means. This isn’t just about a late apology. This is about decades of institutional failure. It’s about tunnel vision, bad interrogation tactics, and a justice system that clung to a theory while DNA screamed “you’re wrong.” We talk false confessions, prosecutorial overreach, and what real restitution should look like in cases like this—because you don’t just walk away from death row and go back to normal. #YogurtShopMurders #FalseConfession #WrongfulConviction #MichaelScott #RobertSpringsteen #CoercedConfession #TravisCountyDA #JusticeReform #HiddenKillersLive #InnocenceAcknowledged Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Inside Bryan Kohberger’s Murder-Morning Shopping Trip & What the Survivors Endured Two threads. One killer. And a behavioral trail that doesn’t lie. In this combined breakdown, I’m joined by Robin Dreeke to walk through two critical pieces of the Kohberger case: The post-murder shopping footage, where Kohberger casually walks the aisles at Costco and the grocery store—mere hours after the murders. The survivor interviews, where Dylan Mortensen and Bethany Funke describe confusion, fear, and sensory chaos inside the house that night. This isn’t about internet drama. It’s about how behavior—on both ends—tells the story. We look at how Kohberger re-entered public space like nothing had happened. Robin explains what the FBI looks for in footage like this: timing, movement, risk exposure, behavioral regulation. Then we shift to the interviews—two young women surviving something unspeakable. We walk through what they said, why they said it the way they did, and why the people attacking them online are dead wrong. This segment is about evidence, not ego. About listening, not twisting. About understanding what trauma sounds like—and what performance looks like. Bryan Kohberger is guilty. He’s in prison. But the story doesn’t end at conviction. These details matter. Because they show us the full anatomy of this case—from the killer’s fake calm to the survivors’ real fear. 🔖 HASHTAGS #HiddenKillers #BryanKohberger #RobinDreeke #CostcoVideo #DylanMortensen #BethanyFunke #PostCrimeBehavior #TraumaInformed #Idaho4 #TrueCrimeBreakdown Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

DNA, Trauma & Knife Training: Yogurt Shop Murders Spark Bigger Questions It’s the breakthrough we weren’t sure we’d ever see—the Yogurt Shop Murders are finally solved, 34 years after four teenage girls were brutally killed in Austin, Texas. In this episode of Hidden Killers Live, Tony Brueski, Stacy Cole, and Todd Michaels dissect the shocking press conference that named Robert Eugene Brashears as the lone killer—thanks to a powerful combo of DNA, ballistic forensics, and forensic genealogy. He’s dead, but the truth finally isn’t. But this segment isn't just about the headline. It’s about what took so damn long, the false confessions that wrecked innocent lives, and the mountain of physical evidence that sat untouched in filing cabinets for decades. The conversation quickly pivots from crime to culture—because if this case proves anything, it’s that no one’s coming to save you. Stacy opens up about her real-life decision to train in martial arts and hide knives around her apartment—not for paranoia, but for survival. And she’s not alone. The live chat explodes with women chiming in: same story, same fear, same defensive strategy. This episode dives deep into the psychological scars of systemic failure, the emotional intelligence we’re not teaching, and the false binary of being paranoid vs. being prepared. Also covered: the myth of “junk DNA science,” how 23andMe might’ve saved a life, and why too many public spaces feel like danger zones. Plus, a brutally honest conversation about growing up in fear, the trauma that shapes us, and what “safety” even means in today’s world. Watch now. Comment if you’ve ever felt the same. And tell us—do you trust science, or Reddit? 🔖 Hashtags: #YogurtShopMurders #TrueCrime #ColdCaseSolved #ForensicDNA #RobertBrashears #23andMe #SelfDefense #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #TrueCrimePodcast Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
