Did Brian Walshe Panic — or Plan? The Trial Takes a Dark Turn

What do you do when the monster lives next door? Between 1972 and 1978, John Wayne Gacy lured dozens of boys and young men into his suburban Chicago home under the guise of job offers, parties, and charm. He was a contractor. A volunteer. A political glad-hander. And at night, he was a killer—burying bodies under his house while waving to neighbors from the front yard. In this longform true crime deep dive, we unravel the full story of John Wayne Gacy—from his early life and chilling psychological profile, to the horrific details of how he targeted victims, how the system failed to stop him, and the legal process that finally brought him to justice. This isn’t just another “killer clown” story. This is a story about how evil wears a mask. How a man with a camera-ready smile, a Pogo the Clown costume, and a reputation for charity work got away with 33 murders while police looked the other way. We dig into the psychological red flags, the forensic evidence, the survivor testimony, and the court case that exposed one of the most prolific serial killers in American history. Based strictly on confirmed facts and trial records, this episode is designed for a true crime audience that values depth, accuracy, and emotional clarity. It’s a cautionary tale about power, manipulation, and what happens when predators know exactly how to blend in. This is the story of the man beneath the floorboards. This is the story of John Wayne Gacy. #TrueCrime #JohnWayneGacy #SerialKillers #GacyTrial #TrueCrimePodcast #CrawlSpace #ForensicPsychology #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimeYouTube #ColdCases Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The warning signs were there. According to prosecutors, Tyler James Robinson—the man charged in the assassination of Charlie Kirk—left behind a note, sent texts before and after the shooting, and planned the act for over a week. Yet no one stopped it. In this episode of Hidden Killers, host Tony Brueski sits down with psychotherapist and forensic behavioral expert Shavaun Scott to dissect the psychology behind leakage, missed signals, and why families, friends, and institutions continue to fail at catching killers before they act. We’re asking the hard questions: Why do people hesitate to report concerning behavior—even when their gut says something’s wrong? What language patterns and behavior shifts should raise red flags in friends, classmates, or coworkers? What role does the internet play in radicalizing already isolated individuals? What can schools, campuses, and event organizers realistically do to stop this? This isn’t about panic. It’s about prevention. Because according to the Secret Service, most mass shooters display obvious warning signs in the days, weeks, and months before they act. This episode pulls back the curtain on the psychology of targeted violence—and why so many communities only connect the dots when it’s already too late. 🔔 Subscribe for more true crime interviews, forensic breakdowns, and expert-driven analysis from inside the nation’s most disturbing cases. #CharlieKirk #TylerRobinson #MassShooterWarningSigns #TrueCrimePsychology #ShavaunScott #Leakage #ForensicBehavioralAnalysis #HiddenKillersPodcast #PreventMassShootings #EarlyIntervention Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

A major shock just hit the Kouri Richins murder case—and it’s not coming from the defense. It’s coming from the prosecution’s own key witness, who now says he never sold fentanyl to anyone connected to Richins. That single statement might be enough to crack the entire case wide open. In this episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, we dig into the explosive new affidavit from Robert Crozier, the alleged drug dealer the state claims supplied the fentanyl that killed Eric Richins. In newly filed court documents, Crozier swears under oath that he didn’t sell fentanyl—he sold oxycodone. And that one change blows a hole straight through the state’s carefully constructed narrative. The defense has now filed a motion to reconsider bail and another to compel evidence disclosure, claiming the prosecution knew about this change as far back as April 2025—and said nothing. If true, this isn’t just a twist. It could be a Brady violation—a failure to turn over exculpatory evidence—which would shake the case at its core. We break down everything: the potential legal fallout, the impact on the upcoming February 2026 trial, and whether prosecutors can still prove murder without being able to trace the weapon—fentanyl—back to the accused. And with no physical pills, no forensic link, and a recanted witness, the state may now be walking into court with a theory that’s missing its spine. Is this the beginning of the end for the prosecution’s case against Kouri Richins? Or will the state fight back with new evidence to keep their narrative alive? This one changes everything. #KouriRichins #TrueCrime #FentanylMurder #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #LegalDrama #CourtroomTwist #MurderTrial #BreakingNews #JusticeSystem Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

This wasn’t a moment of rage. According to prosecutors, it was a calculated, deliberate act: a long gun, a rooftop, and a public figure in the crosshairs. In this powerful and deeply psychological episode of Hidden Killers, Tony Brueski is joined by psychotherapist and forensic behavioral expert Shavaun Scott to examine the disturbing case of Tyler James Robinson, the man charged with murdering Charlie Kirk in front of a crowd at Utah Valley University. Authorities allege Robinson left behind a handwritten note, confessed to the act in a text message, and planned the shooting for over a week. Prosecutors are calling it ideologically motivated, and they’re seeking the death penalty. But this isn’t just about what allegedly happened. It’s about how people get there.  What makes someone move from grievance to violence? From obsession to execution? From believing in a cause to believing that murder is justified? Together, Tony and Shavaun break down the psychology of targeted violence, including: The mindset behind planned attacks vs. spontaneous rage What the term “leakage” means—and how it shows up in text messages and online behavior Why offenders often see themselves as heroes, protectors, or martyrs The role of digital radicalization, algorithmic echo chambers, and identity reinforcement The symbolism of engraved weapons, public executions, and post-crime behavior What institutions, families, and friends can realistically do to stop the next shooter This interview dives deep into the dark corners of obsession, warning signs, and the narratives people build around violence. It’s not about sensationalism—it’s about understanding the patterns, so we can finally learn how to stop them. If you’ve ever asked yourself, “How could no one see this coming?”—this is the conversation you need to hear. 🔔 Subscribe for more interviews, courtroom breakdowns, and psychological deep dives on the cases that shake the country. #CharlieKirk #TylerRobinson #TargetedViolence #TrueCrimePsychology #ShavaunScott #HiddenKillers #MentalHealthAndViolence #Leakage #GrievanceToViolence #ForensicPsychology Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
