Brian Walshe Defense COLLAPSES — No Witnesses, No Testimony, Jury Gets Case!
The Brian Walshe murder trial took a stunning turn Thursday morning when the defense rested without calling a single witness. Not Brian Walshe. Not their forensic experts. Not the medical professional who was supposed to explain how a healthy 39-year-old woman just drops dead in bed. Nothing. This comes just 24 hours after Walshe's attorneys told the judge he would take the stand. Instead, when asked directly by Judge Diane Freniere, Walshe confirmed: "I will not testify." After eight days of prosecution testimony and 50 witnesses, the defense offered zero counter-evidence to support the "sudden unexplained death" theory they promised in opening statements. This morning, both sides deliver 45-minute closing arguments, then deliberations begin. The prosecution built their case on Brian Walshe's Google searches starting at 4:52 a.m. on January 1st, 2023 — searches for how to dispose of a body, how to dismember, hacksaw recommendations, and how to clean DNA from a knife. The jury saw surveillance footage of Walshe buying hatchets, hacksaws, Tyvek suits, and cleaning supplies while wearing a surgical mask and blue gloves, paying in cash. They heard that Ana's DNA was found on the hacksaw blade with statistical certainty in the nonillions. They learned about the $2.7 million life insurance policy naming Brian as sole beneficiary, and the affair with D.C. real estate broker William Fastow — whose name Brian searched on Christmas Day 2022. Brian Walshe has already pleaded guilty to dismembering Ana's body and misleading police. He faces life in prison without parole if convicted of first-degree murder. We break down everything the jury heard, what the defense accomplished in cross-examination, and what to expect as this case goes to deliberation. #BrianWalshe #AnaWalshe #WalsheTrial #TrueCrime #MurderTrial #ClosingArguments #Massachusetts #CohassetMurder #TrueCrimeNews #JusticeForAna Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

"I Think He Did It" — Murdaugh Housekeeper's Final Verdict | Blanca Simpson Part 5
After fifteen years inside the Murdaugh family's world, after walking through that house twelve hours after the murders, after being dismissed by investigators and watching the trial unfold — Blanca Simpson has reached her own conclusion. "Do you think Alex Murdaugh pulled the trigger?" "I do. I do." In the fifth and final part of this exclusive interview series, the Murdaugh family's longtime housekeeper shares her complete theory about what happened on June 7th, 2021. She believes "Plan A" involved luring someone else to the property — possibly Chris Rowe — but when that fell through, Alex pivoted to "Plan B": committing the murders himself and blaming the kids from the boat crash. Blanca explains the motive as she sees it. The motion to compel was scheduled for that Thursday. Alex's financial crimes were about to be exposed. With Maggie gone, he would inherit all the properties in her name — enough to cover his tracks and make the stolen money disappear. But beyond the theory, this segment is deeply personal. Blanca reflects on watching Alex's sentencing and seeing no remorse — only arrogance. She talks about feeling blamed and deflected upon during the investigation. She reveals that she no longer has any contact with Buster, and she understands why. And she shares an update on Bubba, the family dog she now cares for — blind, diabetic, but thriving. When I ask if Alex deserves a new trial, her answer is complicated. She believes he got a fair trial. But she also believes in the rule of law — even for people she's convinced are guilty. This is the conclusion of an extraordinary interview with someone who saw it all from the inside. Blanca Simpson's book is available now. #AlexMurdaugh #MurdaughVerdict #MurdaughTrial #BlancaSimpson #MurdaughMurders #MaggieMurdaugh #PaulMurdaugh #TrueCrime #MurdaughGuilty #Justice Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Did Diddy Order the Hit on Tupac — Then Profit From Biggie's Death? | The Reckoning Documentary Breakdown
The Netflix documentary "Sean Combs: The Reckoning" presents some of the most damning allegations ever made against the disgraced music mogul — and the most explosive involve two murders that changed hip-hop forever. In this breakdown, we examine the documentary's claims about Diddy's alleged role in the deaths of Tupac Shakur and The Notorious B.I.G., including never-before-heard audio from Keefe D's 2008 proffer session where he alleges Combs offered a million-dollar bounty on Tupac and Suge Knight. We walk through the testimony of Bad Boy co-founder Kirk Burrowes, who kept detailed journals during his years at the label and now claims Combs was "insanely jealous" of Biggie and Tupac's friendship. Burrowes alleges Combs cancelled Biggie's London trip and kept him in Los Angeles despite the danger — and that after Biggie was killed, Combs allegedly tried to charge the funeral costs back to the dead rapper's estate. We also cover the response from Biggie's estate manager Wayne Barrow, who denies the funeral allegation entirely. The documentary raises a disturbing question: did Combs lose a friend, or build an empire on tragedy? Sean Combs has denied all involvement in both murders and has never been charged. Keefe D's trial is scheduled for 2026. This is Crime Weekly's full breakdown of the allegations, the evidence, and what it all means. #Diddy #SeanCombs #TheReckoning #Tupac #NotoriousBIG #Biggie #CrimeWeekly #TrueCrime #Netflix #HipHop Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Jesse Butler Pattern: Charm, Control & the Darkness Behind Closed Doors
Jesse Butler wasn’t the monster people warn their daughters about. He was the boyfriend parents trusted. Flowers, church, country clubs, family dinners — the whole Norman Rockwell starter kit. And according to investigators, behind that perfectly polished image was a pattern of calculated violence that nearly killed two teenage girls. In this interview, retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke breaks down how someone like Butler operates in plain sight — how predators build charm, weaponize trust, and calibrate threats to keep victims silent. We walk through the behavioral markers, the escalation from love-bombing to violence, and why strangulation is one of the most chilling predictors of future lethal behavior. We also look at the bodycam moment where Butler’s mother immediately coaches him — and what that interaction reveals about the ecosystem that allows someone this dangerous to thrive. And as Stacy points out, strangulation requires sustained, intentional effort. What does that tell us about motive, psychology, and risk moving forward? If you’re a parent, guardian, or young adult — this is a conversation you cannot afford to skip. #JesseButlerCase #RobinDreeke #BehavioralAnalysis #TrueCrimePodcast #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #DatingViolence #VictimSupport #StrangulationRisk #JusticeForSurvivors Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Kohberger’s Prison Meltdowns, Serial-Killer Outreach & the Anna Kepner Case | With Shavaun Scott
This episode of Hidden Killers brings together three troubling, psychologically revealing stories — each offering a unique window into manipulation, identity, and the way families and offenders construct narratives to protect themselves. We begin with Bryan Kohberger’s reported self-harm threats inside Idaho Maximum Security Institution. He’s allegedly telling staff he’ll “harm himself” if they don’t move him out of J-Block — a threat strategically worded, attached to conditions, and deployed after earlier complaints didn’t get traction. Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott breaks down the psychology behind conditional threats, escalation patterns, and why institutions must take every claim seriously even when manipulation is suspected. From there, we move into Kohberger’s serial-killer outreach — his attempts to connect with high-profile offenders rather than family or supporters. Shavaun helps us understand what this reveals about identity, belonging, status, and the collapse of the image he expected to maintain inside prison. When inmates respond with contempt instead of fascination, the psychological fallout can be profound. Finally, we shift to the Anna Kepner cruise-ship case, where conflicting accounts from adults and teens highlight the distance between family myth and emotional reality. Parents describe harmony; teens describe aggression. Shavaun walks us through why teenagers often perceive danger more clearly than adults, how aggression becomes normalized, and why blended families are especially vulnerable to maintaining a narrative that doesn’t match the truth. Across all three segments, one theme emerges: when reality doesn’t match the story someone needs to believe, the mind works overtime to bridge the gap — sometimes through manipulation, sometimes through denial, and sometimes through sheer grandiosity. #HiddenKillers #BryanKohberger #AnnaKepner #ShavaunScott #TrueCrimePodcast #PrisonPsychology #FamilyDynamics #SerialOffenders #TonyBrueski #CriminalMindset Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Charity Beallis Told Everyone He'd Kill Her. One Day After He Won Custody, She & Her Twins Were Dead
Charity Beallis did everything right. She reported the abuse. She filed for divorce. She got a protective order. She went to a state senator and told him her husband was going to kill her. She reportedly pleaded with local police. She posted publicly on social media, naming the case number, begging someone to listen. The system heard her. And then the system gave her husband joint custody of their six-year-old twins. Twenty-four hours later, Charity and both children were found shot to death in their Bonanza, Arkansas home. Dr. Randall Beallis was arrested in February 2025 for allegedly choking Charity in front of their kids. He was charged with aggravated assault and child endangerment. By October, those charges were reduced to misdemeanor battery. He got a suspended sentence and walked free. On December 2nd, a judge awarded him joint custody. On December 3rd, his wife and children were dead. On December 4th, his attorney filed to dismiss the divorce. No one has been arrested. No charges have been filed. Dr. Beallis denies any involvement and says he is cooperating with investigators. But this isn't the first time questions have surrounded a death in Dr. Beallis's life. His previous wife, Shawna, died from a reported gunshot wound in 2012 at age 34. It was ruled a suicide. According to accounts now surfacing, her family never believed that ruling. Two wives. Both mothers. Both reportedly dead from gunshots. Thirteen years apart. Charity saw what was coming. She screamed it from the rooftops. The system failed her at every turn. This is her story. #CharityBeallis #RandallBeallis #BonanzaArkansas #TrueCrime #DomesticViolence #SystemFailed #JusticeForCharity #ShawnaBeallis #ArkansasCrime #CustodyBattle Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
