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.

Inside 'Lori Vallow’s Prison Prophecy' & Chad Daybell's Prison Letters

Inside 'Lori Vallow’s Prison Prophecy' & Chad Daybell's Prison Letters

Inside 'Lori Vallow’s Prison Prophecy' & Chad Daybell's Prison Letters Hidden Killers Live closes out its Daybell coverage with a mix of dark humor and jaw-dropping audio. First, the hosts riff on Chad Daybell’s letters as if they were a “Top 40” radio countdown — imagining long-distance dedications from death row. It’s biting satire that highlights just how delusional Chad’s writings really are. But the laughter fades when the show pivots to Lori Vallow’s Arizona courtroom monologue. In her own words, Lori rails against the justice system, claims she was denied a fair trial, and positions herself as a spiritual warrior for God. She insists prisoners are being turned into “God’s army” and that chains will soon break and prison walls will fall. The audio is surreal — a convicted killer preaching divine miracles while serving multiple life sentences. Tony and the crew let Lori’s words speak for themselves, underscoring the shared delusional worldview that tied her fate to Chad’s. This closing segment captures the full spectrum of the Daybell/Vallow saga: the absurd, the disturbing, and the deeply dangerous belief system that fueled murder. It’s a must-watch for anyone trying to understand how religious extremism and narcissism can intertwine to produce tragedy. #LoriVallow #ChadDaybell #DaybellTrial #CultCrimes #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimeCommunity #CourtroomDrama #DeathRow #PrisonProphecy #PodcastClips Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Did Chad Daybell Kill Anyone? Breaking Down Prison Letters, Evidence & Tammy’s Final Days

Did Chad Daybell Kill Anyone? Breaking Down Prison Letters, Evidence & Tammy’s Final Days

Did Chad Daybell Kill Anyone? Breaking Down Prison Letters, Evidence & Tammy’s Final Days In this powerful extended segment of Hidden Killers Live, Tony Brueski, Stacy Cole, and Todd Michaels tackle one of the biggest questions in the Daybell case: Did Chad actually commit the murders, or was he just complicit? The team debates whether Lori Vallow and Alex Cox were the true hands behind the killings while Chad acted as the enabling bystander. They revisit the evidence: cell phone pings, asphyxiation findings from Tammy Daybell’s exhumation, and the suspicious burial of the children on Chad’s property. Could Chad really have been so blind, or was he more deeply involved than the letters suggest? The discussion then flows into Letter Three, where Chad gives his sanitized account of Tammy’s declining health and eventual death. He describes fainting spells, bloating, dizziness, and her refusal to seek medical care — portraying himself as a concerned husband. The hosts cut through the fiction, pointing out how convenient it is for Chad to frame Tammy’s death as “natural” when the autopsy showed signs of asphyxiation. With personal insights on menopause, medical neglect, and the frustrations of being gaslit by doctors, the conversation goes deeper than court transcripts — exposing how Chad mixes truth with fiction to rewrite the past. This segment doesn’t just question Chad’s role in the murders. It shines a light on how abusers and manipulators twist narratives, even after conviction, to avoid accountability. #ChadDaybell #TammyDaybell #LoriVallow #AlexCox #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimeAnalysis #DaybellTrial #DeathRowLetters #CourtCase #TrueCrimeCommunity Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Chad Daybell’s Love Letters to Tammy EXPOSED: Fiction or Reality?

Chad Daybell’s Love Letters to Tammy EXPOSED: Fiction or Reality?

Chad Daybell’s Love Letters to Tammy EXPOSED: Fiction or Reality? On Hidden Killers Live, Tony Brueski and the crew unpack Letter Two from Chad Daybell’s prison writings, where he devotes the entire entry to Tammy Daybell — the wife he was later convicted of conspiring to kill. Chad paints a glowing portrait of their early romance, marriage, and family life. He gushes over their first meeting, the Oingo Boingo and B-52s concerts they attended, and the book company they built together. He describes Tammy as vibrant, kind, and angelic — almost saintlike in his retelling. But the irony is suffocating: this is the same man convicted of orchestrating Tammy’s murder, burying children in his backyard, and plotting alongside Lori Vallow in one of the most infamous cult-driven cases in American true crime. The hosts break down the surreal contradictions. How does a man convicted of family annihilation manage to write love letters that sound like Hallmark scripts? How does nostalgia about “family dance parties” ring when you know what he really did? With sharp banter and biting analysis, this segment reveals the psychological gymnastics of a killer desperate to rewrite his own history. It’s unsettling, absurd, and a darkly fascinating glimpse into how Chad Daybell sees himself — and how far he’ll go to manipulate even from death row. #ChadDaybell #TammyDaybell #LoriVallow #DaybellTrial #CultCrimes #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimeObsessed #PodcastClips #CourtCase #FamilyMurder Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
