Charity Beallis: FBI Veteran Robin Dreeke's Full Analysis — The Evidence, The Investigation, The Complexity
True Crime Today presents the complete interview with former FBI special agent Robin Dreeke on the Charity Beallis case — covering behavioral analysis, investigative developments, and the complications that make this case resist simple conclusions.December 3rd, 2025. Bonanza, Arkansas. A mother and her six-year-old twins found dead from gunshot wounds. Over a month later: no arrest, no suspect named, no cause of death released. The investigation continues with federal assistance.The easy narrative is clear-cut domestic violence. The documented evidence isn't that simple.Randall Beallis pled guilty to battery. His previous wife died from a gunshot wound. But Charity's documented record includes a 2013 firearm arrest and allegations from her own father that she was dangerous to her child. According to a police report, that same father allegedly told investigators in 2021 that Charity confessed to involvement in Shawna Beallis's death — a claim he later contradicted publicly.Robin Dreeke spent 32 years in federal law enforcement, including years running the FBI's Behavioral Analysis Program. In this comprehensive interview, he applies that expertise across every layer of this case.First, the documented behaviors — patterns on both sides, escalation indicators, contradictions. Second, the investigation — what twelve search warrants, federal involvement, and law enforcement language typically signal. Third, the complexity — how investigators handle cases where documented allegations exist against multiple parties.This analysis presumes no one's guilt. The only certainty is that two children are dead.Content on this site is based on publicly available information and reflects commentary and opinion.

Nick Reiner Schizophrenia Revealed: Medication Changed Weeks Before Parents Murdered — FBI Analyst Explains
Nick Reiner was diagnosed with schizophrenia years ago and was being treated with medication that sources say was working. Then three to four weeks before he allegedly stabbed his parents to death, doctors changed his prescription. That's when he went off the rails. His behavior became erratic and dangerous. His parents saw it. They were alarmed. By the time they brought him to Conan O'Brien's Christmas party on December 13th, they were bringing him just to keep an eye on him. His mother Michele had been telling friends they were at their wits' end.Less than 24 hours later, Rob and Michele Reiner were dead in the master bedroom of their Brentwood home. Multiple sharp force injuries. Time from injury to death was minutes.Yesterday high-profile attorney Alan Jackson withdrew from Nick's defense after three weeks of investigation. But before leaving he told reporters Nick is not guilty of murder under California law. He's prohibited from explaining why.Former FBI Behavioral Analysis Chief Robin Dreeke joins me to analyze what the behavioral warning signs reveal, how a medication change factors into predicting violence, and what Alan Jackson's exit means for the case ahead. We break down the pattern of escalation in Nick's history and why having unlimited resources couldn't save this family.#NickReiner #RobReiner #TrueCrimeToday #Schizophrenia #FBI #RobinDreeke #AlanJackson #BrentwoodMurders #MicheleReiner #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Charity Beallis Case: FBI Expert Says Documented Record Doesn't Match Media's Simple Narrative
True Crime Today's week in review features former FBI special agent Robin Dreeke's comprehensive analysis of the Charity Beallis case — examining what happens when documented evidence shows violence on both sides of a relationship.Charity Beallis and her twins Eliana and Maverick were found shot to death on December 3rd, 2025, in Bonanza, Arkansas. Over a month later: no arrest, no named suspect, no cause of death released. The investigation remains active with federal agencies assisting.Many have framed this as a domestic violence case with a clear victim and perpetrator. The documented record tells a more complicated story. Randall Beallis pled guilty to misdemeanor domestic battery. His previous wife Shawna also died from a gunshot wound in 2012 — ruled suicide. But Charity's documented history includes a 2013 arrest for allegedly pointing a firearm at a man, custody allegations from her own father claiming she endangered her child, and according to a 2021 police report, her father allegedly told investigators Charity confessed to killing Shawna.That same father later told media he never said Charity was involved — only that "she knew who did it." That contradiction is significant.Robin Dreeke — 32 years in federal law enforcement including running the FBI's Behavioral Analysis Program — joined us for a three-part analysis. He examined documented behaviors on both sides, the investigative signals including search warrants and the dumpster discovery, and how investigators approach cases where claims conflict with other claims and the truth may not fit any comfortable narrative. The only certainty is that Eliana and Maverick are gone. Everything else remains under investigation.#CharityBeallis #RobinDreeke #FBI #TrueCrimeToday #ElianaAndMaverick #RandallBeallis #BonanzaArkansas #BehavioralAnalysis #WeekInReview #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Charlie Adelson Appeal: 53 of 54 Jurors Thought He Was Guilty Before Trial — Now He Wants a New One
True Crime Today's week in review covers the Adelson case — Charlie's appeal arguments and Donna's prison transfer to South Florida.Charlie Adelson will be back in court February 3rd, 2026 — not for a new trial, but for twenty minutes to convince three appellate judges that the system got it wrong. His 91-page brief argues pretrial publicity in Tallahassee was so overwhelming that a fair trial was impossible. The numbers are stark: 96 of 130 potential jurors had heard of the case. Of the 54 who formed an opinion, 53 believed Charlie was guilty before testimony began. His team also claims defense attorney Dan Rashbaum had a conflict of interest — the same issue that exploded Donna's trial when Charlie revoked his waiver the morning of jury selection.Meanwhile, Donna Adelson has been transferred to Homestead Correctional Institution in Miami-Dade County. The woman who allegedly funded a contract killing because she couldn't accept her grandchildren living in Tallahassee is now thirty miles from her former life, behind razor wire, serving life without parole. She's filed her own notice of appeal. Criminal appeals succeed around five percent of the time.Five people convicted. Charlie in South Dakota over security concerns. Donna in Homestead. Katherine Magbanua in Ocala. The hitmen locked up. Eleven years from Dan Markel's murder to final judgment.And Wendi Adelson — named by prosecutors as an unindicted co-conspirator, testified under limited immunity at every trial, never charged. State Attorney Jack Campbell said decisions would come "in the coming weeks" after Donna's conviction. That was months ago.#CharlieAdelson #DonnaAdelson #DanMarkel #TrueCrimeToday #WendiAdelson #AdelsonAppeal #MurderForHire #FloridaCrime #WeekInReview #JusticeForDanMarkelJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Mickey Stines Case Stalls: Judge Had Undisclosed Meeting With Victim — FBI Exposes System That Failed
True Crime Today's week in review covers the Mickey Stines case — a recusal motion that's frozen proceedings and an FBI analysis of how this shooting was preventable.Days before a critical hearing, Special Judge Christopher Cohron abruptly adjourned court. The defense had found video footage showing Cohron seated inches from Judge Kevin Mullins at a Kentucky Judicial Commission on Mental Health meeting — seven days before Mullins was shot to death in his chambers. Cohron never disclosed this. Defense attorneys Jeremy and Kerri Bartley argue that in a case entirely dependent on Stines' mental state, this undisclosed connection to the victim creates an appearance of bias that cannot stand. They cite Cohron's previous rulings blocking psychiatric evaluation from the bond hearing.But we also examined what the court filings reveal about the days before the shooting. Everyone saw the breakdown coming. Mickey Stines called dead relatives on his phone. Lost weight rapidly. Stopped sleeping. Displayed paranoia. His own staff pushed him to see a doctor. Acute stress reaction was the diagnosis. The response? Send him home — badge, gun, authority intact. Twenty-four hours later, Judge Mullins was shot nine times.Former FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer exposed the structural failures. Kentucky has no red flag law. An elected sheriff cannot be suspended by subordinates. There was no mechanism to disarm him even as multiple people recognized he was in crisis. A civil lawsuit accuses sheriff's office employees of failing to warn Judge Mullins. Their defense claims Kentucky law imposed no duty to act.Stines has been held without bond for over fifteen months. No trial date. No death penalty decision. Case frozen.#MickeyStines #JudgeKevinMullins #TrueCrimeToday #ChristopherCohron #JenniferCoffindaffer #FBI #KentuckySheriff #SystemFailure #JudgeRecusal #WeekInReviewJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Nick Reiner Case: Alan Jackson Withdraws, Public Defender Steps In — The Warning Signs Everyone Ignored
True Crime Today's week in review covers the Nick Reiner case — the stunning attorney withdrawal and the years of warning signs nobody could act on.Alan Jackson walked into a Los Angeles courtroom and told the judge he had "no choice" but to withdraw from Nick Reiner's defense. He said circumstances "beyond Nick's control" forced his exit. Sources tell Deadline money is the reason. The pattern that protected Nick for seventeen years — eighteen rehab programs, seventy thousand a month in treatment, a rent-free guesthouse, a ten-thousand-dollar monthly allowance, and sources say estate money funding his defense even after his parents' deaths — appears to be over. Deputy Public Defender Kimberly Greene was informed last night. She met her client for thirty seconds before the hearing. Arraignment postponed to February 23rd.But we also examined what led here. This wasn't sudden. A neighbor told reporters Nick had been violent before. An LAPD insider confirmed "quite a few calls for service" to the Reiner home over the years. The night before Rob and Michele were found stabbed to death, Nick was reportedly so erratic at Conan O'Brien's Christmas party that guests were unnerved. Rob allegedly told friends that night he was terrified his own son could hurt him.Bob Motta joined us to break down what law enforcement officers see in the years before tragedies like this — and what California's mental health laws actually allow them to do. The LPS Act requires imminent danger for involuntary commitment. Not probable. Not deteriorating. Imminent. Rob and Michele were legally trapped. For the first time in his life, Nick faces consequences without unlimited resources behind him.#NickReiner #RobReiner #MicheleReiner #TrueCrimeToday #AlanJackson #BobMotta #PublicDefender #LPSAct #MentalHealthCrisis #WeekInReviewJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

“Mountains of Evidence?” Sarah Grace Patrick Murder Trial Delayed 7 Months as Prosecutors Ask for More Time. Bob Motta Breaks It Down
The prosecution claimed "mountains of evidence." Then they asked for seven more months.The Sarah Grace Patrick murder trial was set for January 5th, 2026. Judge Dustin Hightower pushed it to August 3rd after the state said they needed time to review a defense neuropsychologist evaluation. The defense was ready to pick a jury. The prosecution wasn't.Sarah Grace Patrick, 17, is charged as an adult with two counts of murder in the shooting deaths of her mother Kristin Brock and stepfather James Brock in Carroll County, Georgia. She's been in custody since July 2025.No murder weapon has been produced. No forensic evidence linking Sarah to the killings has been publicly disclosed. No firearm was found at the scene. The state's case, as presented publicly, relies heavily on a teenager's social media behavior after her parents were killed.Defense attorney Bob Motta breaks down what this delay tells us about where this case actually stands.#SarahGracePatrick #TrueCrimeToday #CarrollCounty #MurderTrial #KristinBrock #JamesBrock #Georgia #BobMotta #DefenseAttorney #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

D4VD Investigation: Manager Admitted Tour Was Priority Over Calling Police — FBI Reacts to Evidence
True Crime Today's week in review covers the D4VD case — the physical evidence, the grand jury bombshells, and FBI analysis on what prosecutors are building.A chainsaw never removed from its sheath. A burn cage incinerator still in the box. A Tesla parked on a residential street for over a month with a teenage girl's body decomposing in the trunk. And a cause of death that remains officially "deferred" while a grand jury hears witness after witness. This case has all the hallmarks of a circumstantial prosecution — no eyewitnesses, no confession, no official homicide ruling yet. But prosecutors aren't waiting.Former FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer broke down what investigators are likely seeing. She examined what unused disposal tools suggest about intent versus execution, how advanced decomposition affects forensic analysis, and what toxicology results could mean for the direction of charges.The grand jury has full authority to indict. Prosecutor Beth Silverman reportedly believes D4VD was involved in Celeste Rivas Hernandez's death and is building toward murder charges. Manager Robert Morgenroth's testimony was stunning — he admitted his priority was keeping the tour going, not calling police. An uncooperative female witness now faces arrest to compel her testimony. D4VD made asset transfers days after police raided his home.PI Steve Fischer's assessment of the scene: "Whatever happened here, this wasn't a finalized plan. The plan got upended." Celeste was 14. She was last seen alive January 2nd, 2025. Her body was found September 8th — one day after what would have been her 15th birthday. D4VD has not been charged. He remains legally presumed innocent.#D4VD #CelesteRivas #TrueCrimeToday #JenniferCoffindaffer #FBI #GrandJury #HollywoodHills #WeekInReview #JusticeForCeleste #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
