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 Diddy’s Darkest Allegation Yet: Desecrating Biggie’s Legacy-WEEK IN REVIEW

Inside Diddy’s Darkest Allegation Yet: Desecrating Biggie’s Legacy-WEEK IN REVIEW

Sean “Diddy” Combs built an empire out of power, fame, and the memory of his closest friend — The Notorious B.I.G. But according to a new police report and civil lawsuit, the man once seen as hip-hop royalty may have crossed a line that can never be uncrossed. In this episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, we break down the disturbing new allegations against Diddy — ones that strike at the heart of his public legacy. A Florida police report details a horrifying scene: a warehouse filled with Biggie’s preserved clothing, a private “listening session,” and an act so vile it’s hard to process. The victim, a music producer known as “John Doe,” claims Diddy pleasured himself under one of Biggie’s shirts — then threw it at him, saying “Rest in peace, Biggie.” Later, the man says he was attacked again in Hollywood Hills by Combs himself in a terrifying scene of violence and humiliation. These allegations aren’t just shocking — they’re symbolic. Because this time, the power Diddy allegedly abused wasn’t only over people, but over legacy. Over memory. Over the ghost of a man whose name he’s profited from for decades. With over 50 civil suits now linked to Diddy — spanning decades of alleged coercion, grooming, and assault — this latest claim could be the final crack in the myth of invincibility he’s carefully maintained. Diddy, now serving time at FCI Fort Dix on federal prostitution charges, faces a collapsing empire, mounting legal pressure, and a legacy forever tainted. Tony Brueski exposes the dark psychology of power, control, and the weaponization of legacy that runs through this case — and why this moment may finally force the music industry to reckon with the monsters it crowned as kings.

Why the Rex Heuermann Trial Is STILL Delayed: Inside the Legal War Behind Gilgo Beach-WEEK IN REVIEW

Why the Rex Heuermann Trial Is STILL Delayed: Inside the Legal War Behind Gilgo Beach-WEEK IN REVIEW

The Gilgo Beach murders shocked the nation. The arrest of Rex Heuermann — the quiet Long Island architect accused of being a serial killer — was supposed to bring answers. Instead, it’s brought more questions. Two years later, there’s still no trial date. Why? Because behind the headlines, the justice system is waging a silent war. In this episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, we dig into the real reasons justice has stalled. Prosecutors are relying on cutting-edge DNA pulled from rootless hairs — a first for New York courts. Defense attorneys call it “junk science.” The judge allowed it, but that ruling unleashed months of follow-up litigation: new motions, new hearings, new expert reports. Every microscopic detail is being challenged to make sure the case can survive appeal. Then there’s the consolidation — seven murders, one trial. That decision means every chain of custody, every test, every autopsy from 1993 to 2010 has to hold up together. Add old phone records, outdated forensics, and a DA’s office desperate to restore its credibility, and you get one of the most complicated homicide prosecutions in modern history. This isn’t justice delayed. It’s justice under construction — a slow, grinding fight between science, law, and time itself. Tony Brueski breaks down the psychology, the strategy, and the human toll of a case that refuses to move fast. Why is the state taking its time? What’s happening behind the scenes? And what happens if the science fails? Watch now to understand why the waiting matters. #RexHeuermann #GilgoBeach #HiddenKillers #TrueCrime #DNAEvidence #JusticeDelayed #TonyBrueski #CrimePodcast #SerialKillerCase #ForensicScience Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

From Army Misconduct to Badge & Gun: Bob Motta On The Murder Of Sona Massey-WEEK IN REVIEW

From Army Misconduct to Badge & Gun: Bob Motta On The Murder Of Sona Massey-WEEK IN REVIEW

Before he killed Sonya Massey, Deputy Sean Grayson was already a walking liability — fired from department after department, discharged from the Army for misconduct, arrested for DUI, and still somehow cleared to wear a badge in Illinois. In this powerful conversation, Tony Brueski, Stacy Cole, and Todd Michaels and attorney Bob Motta expose how that happened — and why it keeps happening. From failed background checks to lax hiring standards, the system designed to protect the public instead recycles problem officers. The result: tragedy after tragedy. Grayson’s conviction for second-degree murder feels hollow when the larger machine that put him in that kitchen still runs unchecked. Tony and Bob unpack the loopholes, the union protections, and the culture of silence that let Grayson slip through every filter. They also explore Illinois’ new “Sonya’s Law,” the state’s attempt to patch the holes after it was too late — and whether any of it will stop the next preventable death. Hidden Killers — where we hold the system accountable, one case at a time. #SonyaMassey #SeanGrayson #PoliceReform #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #BobMotta #TrueCrime #JusticeForSonya #SystemicFailure #LawEnforcement #Accountability #Podcast Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
