Inside the Kohberger Family: Blood Ties, Betrayal & the Witness List No One Saw Coming | 2025 Year in Review

Inside the Kohberger Family: Blood Ties, Betrayal & the Witness List No One Saw Coming | 2025 Year in Review

As part of our Hidden Killers 2025 Year in Review series, we turn the lens away from the accused and toward the people who’ve been living in the shadow of one of the nation’s most haunting murder cases — the family of Bryan Kohberger.

In this gripping three-part deep dive, Tony Brueski uncovers the emotional and legal crossroads facing Kohberger’s parents and sisters as the Idaho murder trial looms. What happens when the system turns its gaze toward the family of the accused? What did they know, and when?

We begin with the latest bombshell: both Bryan Kohberger’s father and sister may be called as witnesses by the prosecution. Why would the state take the extraordinary step of subpoenaing family members? Could they have seen something—heard something—that adds weight to the timeline? Using verified court filings and public statements, Tony breaks down what this means for a case already teetering between the personal and the procedural.

Then we go inside the Kohberger home in the tense weeks before Bryan’s arrest. One sister reportedly noticed unsettling behavior—something that made her question the brother she thought she knew. What did she see? What did she say? And how did those private moments of suspicion and fear evolve into public testimony?

This episode also examines the psychology of proximity — how families of alleged killers experience guilt by association, media intrusion, and unbearable moral conflict. Are they victims of circumstance, silent witnesses to horror, or both?

Along the way, former prosecutor Eric Faddis joins Tony to dissect the unnerving behavior captured on surveillance footage after the murders — Kohberger shopping at Albertson’s and Costco, the infamous mirror selfie, and possible online activity as “Papa Rodger.” Could these details show a man spiraling, or someone savoring the aftermath?

From the quiet dread inside the Kohberger home to the bizarre post-crime trail that keeps resurfacing, this is the story of a family entangled in the making of a modern American tragedy.

Inside the Cover-Up: How a School Let a 6-Year-Old Pull the Trigger

Inside the Cover-Up: How a School Let a 6-Year-Old Pull the Trigger

A 6-year-old brought a gun to class. His teacher, Abby Zwerner, ended the day in a hospital — shot through the chest and hand in front of her first graders. But what’s unfolding now inside a Virginia courtroom is almost more shocking than the shooting itself. This isn’t just a story about a child with a gun — it’s a story about four separate warnings ignored by school officials who had every chance to stop it. Teachers and staff begged Assistant Principal Ebony Parker to act. They told her the boy might be armed. They saw him put something heavy in his backpack. One even asked to search it. Parker allegedly refused — saying his “pockets were too small.” Hours later, a gun went off. Now, as the $40 million negligence trial plays out, jurors are watching the district try to explain the unexplainable. The plaintiff’s team presented bodycam footage showing the chaotic aftermath — but only outside the jury’s view — while the defense fights to keep that footage out, calling it “too prejudicial.” Tony Brueski pulls back the curtain on the trial that could redefine school accountability across America. What happens when administrators put reputation over responsibility? When “policy” replaces basic human instinct? When a teacher bleeds out because a school was too afraid to act? Zwerner’s lawyers say this wasn’t a freak tragedy — it was institutional failure in slow motion. And for the first time, the people who ignored the warnings are on the stand. This is the trial the entire education system should be watching — because it’s not just about one teacher in Virginia. It’s about every school that hears the alarm and chooses silence. #HiddenKillers #AbbyZwerner #SchoolShooting #Trial #Virginia #RichneckElementary #Negligence #EducationSystem #JusticeForTeachers #TrueCrimePodcast Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Bryan Kohberger: Profiting Off Murder | When Infamy Becomes an Industry

Bryan Kohberger: Profiting Off Murder | When Infamy Becomes an Industry

Bryan Kohberger can’t leave his cell — but his story can. In the state of Idaho, there’s no Son of Sam law, meaning that a convicted murderer can legally make money from the story of his crimes. Books. Documentaries. Interviews. Royalties. In this episode, Tony Brueski and former prosecutor Eric Faddis expose how one of the most horrifying modern murder cases has collided with one of America’s oldest constitutional blind spots: the First Amendment’s protection of speech — even when that speech turns into profit from murder. Tony opens with the question every viewer needs to hear: How can a convicted killer make money from killing? The answer lies in a 1991 Supreme Court ruling, Simon & Schuster v. Crime Victims Board, which struck down New York’s original Son of Sam law after the “Son of Sam” killer, David Berkowitz, tried to sell his story. The Court ruled that laws restricting “crime-based storytelling” discriminated against speech by content. States rewrote their laws to pass constitutional review — some succeeded, others failed — but Idaho never passed anything. The result: a legal vacuum where infamy becomes an industry. This episode breaks down the moral, legal, and economic consequences of that loophole. What does it mean for victims’ families when killers can cash checks? Could Kohberger assign rights to a third party to hide profits? And why are lawmakers too afraid to fix it? Tony and Eric dissect how “freedom” became a shield for greed, how fear of being called unconstitutional paralyzed reform, and why the justice system now doubles as a business model. Justice shouldn’t have a payout plan. This episode asks why America keeps writing one. #BryanKohberger #SonOfSam #TrueCrime #JusticeSystem #CrimePodcast #VictimsRights #TonyBrueski #EricFaddis #KohbergerTrial #FreeSpeech #MurderProfit #TrueCrimeAnalysis Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
