Delphi Investigation Exposed: The Stunningly Bad Police Work Behind the Case

Delphi Investigation Exposed: The Stunningly Bad Police Work Behind the Case

In the Delphi murders, the public was told a simple story: the police put the pieces together, the system worked, and justice was finally served. But when you actually read the documents — the transcripts, investigator depositions, Franks filings, internal notes, and the raw exhibits tucked into the case file — a very different picture emerges.

This wasn’t a clean investigation. It wasn’t methodical. It wasn’t disciplined. It was chaotic, fragmented, and politically pressured from the moment Abby and Libby were found. Leads were documented once and never followed up on. Entire suspects — and entire theories — were quietly dropped without explanation. Investigators contradicted each other, forgot key details, and admitted under oath that they weren’t even aware of evidence sitting inside their own case file.

And yet somehow, in year six, the narrative suddenly snapped into place — not because the investigation got better, but because it finally got a suspect it could backfill the story around.

Tonight, we dig into the evidence that was ignored, the leads that were buried, the internal disagreements investigators never wanted the public to see, and the retrofitted logic that shaped the state’s case. This is not about saying who is guilty or innocent — it’s about asking why the most important homicide investigation in modern Indiana history was handled with the kind of inconsistency you’d expect from a case no one was watching.

If this is how the system works when the world is paying attention… what happens in a case where no one is?

Join Tony Brueski as we break down the investigation behind the scenes — the failures, the shortcuts, the missing follow-through, and the real-world consequences of an investigative structure that collapses under pressure.

Subscribe and comment with your thoughts. This case isn’t just about what happened in 2017 — it’s about what kind of justice system we’re willing to accept today.

Watch As Double Murder EXPOSED In LIVE News Interview: Shocking TV Confession!

Watch As Double Murder EXPOSED In LIVE News Interview: Shocking TV Confession!

Watch As Double Murder EXPOSED In LIVE News Interview: Shocking TV Confession! In one of the most surreal crime stories in recent memory, Lorenz Kraus walked into a CBS6 newsroom and confessed on camera to killing his elderly parents, hiding their bodies in the backyard, and living off their Social Security checks for seven years. Now, on Hidden Killers Live, we watch that full CBS6 interview and break it down — line by line, word by word. Was it a genuine confession? A performance? A delusion? Or all of the above? Police were originally investigating financial crimes tied to the Kraus family at 6 Crestwood Court in Albany, NY, after a red flag from the Social Security Administration. But when a search warrant was executed, investigators unearthed not bank records — but two corpses in the backyard. This segment includes: The moment Kraus confesses to second-degree murder How this case exploded from welfare fraud to Albany double homicide Questions about mental health, delusional beliefs, and a potential god complex What happens when a confession is made to journalists, not police This is the full breakdown of a case that’s part true crime, part psychological thriller, and part bureaucratic failure. Watch with us. 🔖 Hashtags #LorenzKraus #AlbanyDoubleMurder #CBS6Confession #BackyardBurial #TrueCrimeAnalysis #SocialSecurityFraud #GodComplexKiller #HiddenKillersLive #ParentsKilledConfession #FinancialCrimeTurnedHomicide Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Will Anyone Ever Be Charged in the Death of Ellen Greenberg?

Will Anyone Ever Be Charged in the Death of Ellen Greenberg?

Will Anyone Ever Be Charged in the Death of Ellen Greenberg? 20 stab wounds. A knife in her chest. Bruises in various stages of healing. The official ruling? Suicide.   Now, 14 years later, with a new Hulu documentary (Death in Apartment 603) and a court-ordered review underway, the question that refuses to go away is this: Will anyone ever be held accountable for Ellen Greenberg’s death? In this special longform commentary, we cut through the noise and walk through the most disturbing, undeniable facts of this case—the forensic findings, investigative failures, and shifting stories that have led many to believe there’s been a cover-up from the very beginning. Why did the medical examiner reverse a homicide ruling under police pressure? Why was the crime scene released for cleaning before a full forensic sweep? And why does Ellen’s death certificate still say suicide, when even the original pathologist now says it shouldn’t? We also ask the harder question: What’s stopping prosecutors from filing charges, or even opening a formal investigation? From chain-of-custody issues with Ellen’s electronics to conflicting elevator surveillance and 911 call timelines, this case isn’t lacking in evidence—it’s been drowning in it. What it’s lacked is the institutional will to follow it. With the public demanding answers, Ellen’s parents fighting through the courts, and the Hulu series putting the spotlight back where it belongs, we’re at a pivotal moment. Will this be the turning point? Or will the system once again find a way to look away? Justice delayed doesn’t have to be justice denied. But it will be—if no one acts. 🧵 Hashtags #EllenGreenberg #JusticeForEllen #TrueCrime #ColdCase #WrongfulDeath #Unsolved #ForensicFiles #CrimeSceneInvestigation #HuluDocumentary #AccountabilityNow Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Break the Case: Celeste Rivas’ Tragic Fate and the Hunt for Proof

Break the Case: Celeste Rivas’ Tragic Fate and the Hunt for Proof

Break the Case: Celeste Rivas’ Tragic Fate and the Hunt for Proof A shocking true crime mystery is unfolding in California: the tragic death of 13-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez, whose body was discovered on September 8, 2024 in the frunk—the small front trunk—of a Tesla. In this gripping episode of “Break the Case” with former FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer, the panel digs deep into the evidence, the unanswered questions, and the frustratingly slow pace of justice. Coffindaffer is joined by Dan from the Drunk Turkey Show, a former Texas law-enforcement officer, and veteran attorney Philip Dubey, who has worked on both sides of the courtroom in Los Angeles. Together, they examine why, despite disturbing circumstantial evidence linking a man named D4vd to Celeste, no charges have yet been filed. The conversation begins with the heartbreaking backstory of Celeste—a bright but troubled teen who reportedly ran away several times earlier in the year. Questions swirl around her relationship with D4vd, a much older man whose song lyrics, artwork, and even an AI-styled image depicting a body dragged to a trunk have raised eyebrows. The panel dissects how these artistic expressions could serve as circumstantial evidence and what investigators still need to prove in court. Coffindaffer even conducted her own home reenactment to demonstrate just how small the Tesla frunk is and how difficult it would be for one person to maneuver a body inside—suggesting the possibility of additional parties being involved. Attorney Dubey offers an insider’s view on the legal hurdles prosecutors face, including California’s corpus delicti rule, and why forensic evidence—such as signs of pregnancy or DNA—may be the key to unlocking charges that could hold up at trial. This episode blends true-crime reporting with on-scene demonstrations and expert legal insight, painting a chilling yet informative picture of a case that has gripped the public. Viewers will come away with a deeper understanding of why some investigations take time, the power of circumstantial evidence, and the many hurdles between suspicion and conviction in high-profile homicide cases. #CelesteRivas #TeslaFrunk #JenniferCoffindaffer #TrueCrimeNews #MissingTeenCase #RomanticHomicide #CaliforniaCrime #BreakTheCase #JusticeForCeleste #TrueCrimeCommunity #D4vd Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Why They Prosecuted the Wrong Men — Inside the Yogurt Shop Confession Fiasco

Why They Prosecuted the Wrong Men — Inside the Yogurt Shop Confession Fiasco

Why They Prosecuted the Wrong Men — Inside the Yogurt Shop Confession Fiasco In this segment, we tear open the wounds of the original investigation. Two men—Robert Springsteen and Michael Scott—were convicted decades ago based almost entirely on confessions that they later recanted. DNA would later exclude them entirely. What pushed investigators to pursue confessions so hard? Tunnel vision, coercive interview tactics, and information “leaks” that allowed suspects to parrot back nonpublic details. Over 50 people confessed at one point or another to this crime—many obviously false.We dig into how interview design (false‑evidence ploys, minimization, sleep deprivation) creates a dangerous illusion of certainty. Legally, these strategies drive miscarriages of justice. Psychologically, they turn confessions into weapons rather than tools of truth. In this part you’ll learn: Why confessions, especially in homicide, are dangerously persuasive How contamination and leading questions distort memory What happens when investigators stop listening for disconfirmation After you hear the mistakes, you’ll see how fragile the case was from the start—and why we can’t treat confession = guilt as an assumption ever again. #FalseConfession #WrongfulConviction #YogurtShopCase #InterrogationTactics #TunnelVision #CriminalJusticeReform #AustinMurders #InvestigativeFailures #CriminalPsychology #InnocenceProject #YogurtShopMurders Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
