10 Charges, 1 Missing Coach — The Travis Turner Case

This wasn’t an outburst. It was, according to prosecutors, a deliberate, public execution. A bolt-action rifle. A rooftop. A single shot aimed at a political figure speaking to a crowd of thousands. Prosecutors say Tyler James Robinson left a note, sent texts, and planned every detail. In this gripping and unsettling episode of Hidden Killers, Tony Brueski and psychotherapist Shavaun Scott unravel the deeper psychology of targeted violence—and how some killers don’t just act, they perform. From the alleged planning to the engraving on the bullets, the post-crime concealment, and the so-called “energy burst” of activity right after the shot—this wasn’t just about killing. It was about control. Symbolism. Message. In this interview, we explore: How violent actors create their own mythology around the act The psychology of public spectacle and performance-driven violence Why some shooters choose rooftops, long guns, and high-attention moments What happens psychologically after the act: the crash, the clean-up, and the final justification We also examine how obsession, identity, and a need for significance play into the creation of what some perpetrators see as a necessary act of violence. If you’ve ever wondered what turns someone from angry to armed—and what mental framework allows a person to believe they’re righteous in doing so—this is the episode to watch. 🎯 Subscribe for more deeply researched true crime conversations and psychological deep dives into the minds behind the headlines. #CharlieKirk #TargetedKilling #TylerRobinson #PublicExecution #RitualizedViolence #TrueCrimeInterview #PsychologyOfKillers #ShavaunScott #ForensicPsychology #HiddenKillers  Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

With Donna Adelson in prison and Charlie Adelson serving a life sentence, the question on every legal watcher's mind is: could Wendi Adelson be next to face charges in the Dan Markel murder-for-hire plot? In this detailed Hidden Killers commentary, we break down the top five reasons legal experts are speculating about her potential future indictment. Wendi has long been referred to as an "unindicted co-conspirator," a legal term with serious implications that we'll fully explain. We'll examine her potential motive, her alleged benefit from the crime, and the subtle but powerful behavioral evidence that has come to light. With new pressure mounting, Donna's guilty plea on the record, and public scrutiny intensifying, this segment digs into the evidence that makes Wendi's role in this complex legal saga impossible to ignore. Join us as we analyze the twists and turns of this high-profile case and consider the question of who might still be held accountable.

In the face of unthinkable tragedy, Stacy Chapin, the mother of slain University of Idaho student Ethan Chapin, chose a path of grace over vengeance. This deeply moving commentary from Hidden Killers explores her powerful decision to not let Bryan Kohberger—the accused killer—define her or her family's story. Instead of focusing on the crime, Stacy and her family have channeled their grief into a powerful legacy, establishing scholarships and writing a book to honor Ethan's life. This episode is a tribute to the strength of the human spirit. It's about what happens after the crime—the difficult journey of healing, the importance of reclaiming a victim’s memory, and the radical act of choosing peace in a world that demands outrage. We'll examine this unique approach to grieving and the profound impact it can have on survivors. This is a story of resilience, love, and the enduring power of a family's legacy.

This second segment dives into the devastating mental deterioration of Richard Allen during his 13-month pretrial incarceration in solitary confinement—what the state called a “safekeeping order.” Tony, Stacy, Todd, and Bob break down how Allen was isolated, broken down, and allegedly manipulated into confessing to the Delphi murders—not through force, but through psychological collapse. Bob takes us inside the jailhouse calls, including one made at 3:15 AM where Allen desperately tells his stepfather he’s losing his mind and feels like he’s in Guantanamo. Hours later, in a fog of confusion, he tells his wife, “I did it”—then follows with, “Evidently I did.” Is that a confession? Or the ramblings of a man pushed to the brink? We discuss how labeling solitary as a “single-person cell” let the state sidestep human rights standards, why the court excluded a jail call where Allen professes his innocence, and how this system, by design or dysfunction, weaponizes mental illness to build a case. If this was strategy, not oversight, it’s one of the most ethically disturbing chapters in modern true crime. This segment lays bare the line between confession and coercion—and forces us to ask: is it justice if you have to destroy a man’s mind to convict him? #RichardAllen #SolitaryConfinement #FalseConfession #DelphiMurders #TrueCrime #JailhouseCall #PsychologicalAbuse #MentalHealthCrisis #WrongfulConviction #HiddenKillers Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
