When Justice Protects the Guilty: Jesse Butler Walks Free, Susan Lorincz Threatens Her Victims | Eric Faddis Breaks It Down
Two cases. Two very different crimes. One system that failed both sets of victims. In this Hidden Killers double feature, Tony Brueski, Stacy Cole, and Todd Michaels sit down with defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis to unpack two stories that expose the cracks in American justice — one soaked in leniency, the other in cruelty. First: Jesse Mack Butler. Eleven felony charges. Two teenage girls. One nearly strangled to death. Video evidence. Doctors saying seconds more and she’d be gone. Yet somehow, Stillwater, Oklahoma’s court system gave him a second chance — turning seventy-eight years of possible prison time into one year of supervision under the Youthful Offender statute. Eric and Tony dig into how the legal definition of “youth” became a shield for violence, how privilege masqueraded as compassion, and how prosecutors and judges rationalized a decision that left two survivors behind. Then: Susan Lorincz. The Florida woman convicted of shooting Ajike “AJ” Owens through a locked door — killing the mother of four in front of her children. From prison, Lorincz has now written a four-page letter threatening to sue Owens’s children and mother for defamation — accusing them of trespassing, lying, and “ruining her reputation.” Tony and Eric expose the psychological rot behind that letter — how denial becomes control, how narcissism replaces remorse, and how the legal system still lets killers weaponize paperwork against the families they destroyed. Two stories. Same disease. A justice system too soft on those who harm and too silent for those who suffer. 🎧 Watch both breakdowns in one powerful conversation — legal truth, human cost, and why real justice requires more than conviction. 💬 Join the discussion: #HiddenKillers #JesseButler #SusanLorincz #EricFaddis #TrueCrimePodcast #TonyBrueski #JusticeForAJ #YouthfulOffender #FloridaCrime #OklahomaJustice #CourtTV #VictimBlaming #TrueCrimeToday #LegalAnalysis #HiddenKillersLive Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Jesse Butler’s “Youthful Offender” Deal Sparks Outrage: What Went Wrong in Payne County?
A community listened in stunned silence as “Break the Case” examined a decision that many believe defies the gravity of the crimes alleged. In Payne County, Oklahoma, Jesse Mack Butler was accused of serial sexual violence against two young women—identified in criminal complaints as Jane and Sarah—including rape, sodomy with an instrument, oral sodomy, and repeated coercive control. According to the episode, one survivor required neck surgery after alleged strangulation, and a medical assessment noted she was seconds from death. Yet the conclusion stunned observers: a plea that placed Butler under a “youthful offender” status with home confinement, counseling, and the possibility of an expunged record if terms are met. In a state already grappling with trust in its justice system, this outcome landed like breaking news. Host Jennifer Coffindaffer—joined by survivor and advocate Danielle Tudor—delivers a true crime recap that reads like an investigative podcast: urgent, precise, and unflinching. Tudor, who reshaped laws in Oregon and Oklahoma after surviving the “Jogger Rapist,” Richard Gilmore, explains how policy gaps, sentencing discretion, and inconsistent training can turn the promise of justice into a procedural formality. She points to rape kit backlogs, underenforced best-practice training, and sentencing choices that send the wrong message to survivors and offenders alike. The discussion widens to another Oklahoma flashpoint: a Tulsa case where a jury’s decades-long prison recommendation reportedly became probation at sentencing. Names matter in true crime and public accountability, and the episode raises scrutiny of Payne County District Attorney Laura Austin Thomas and the bench decisions that enabled a result many call far too lenient. This cinematic news recap dissects how “youthful offender” pathways, counseling-only conditions, and limited registry consequences can collide with the realities of power, control, and escalating violence. It also foregrounds survivor advocacy as a force for reform: mandatory annual law-enforcement training, evidence tracking, backlog elimination, and clearer minimums for violent sex offenses. Listeners will hear how Tudor’s decades-long fight for victims—contrasted with the parole-era lessons from Richard Gilmore—offers a roadmap for Oklahoma’s next legislative session. The episode references broader case comparisons (including public interest in Bryan Kohberger and Ellen Greenberg) to underscore consistent patterns: grooming, strangulation risk, and the critical need for consequences that protect the public and respect victims’ trauma. If you follow true crime, breaking news, and justice reform, this deep-dive is a must-watch. It’s not speculation—it’s a meticulous, on-record conversation that asks the hard questions. Why was a case with such severe allegations resolved with home confinement? What protections exist for victims when violent behavior is minimized by process? And how can communities mobilize—through policy, elections, and oversight—to ensure that sentences reflect the seriousness of the crimes and the enduring harm to survivors? #JesseButler #Oklahoma #PayneCounty #TrueCrime #BreakingNews #JusticeForSurvivors #SexualAssaultAwareness #DanielleTudor #RichardGilmore #YouthfulOffender Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
