D4VD NOT Cooperating With Investigators? More DARK Questions In Celeste Rivas Case

Stop Blaming the Kohberger Survivors: Inside The Victim Interviews There’s a special kind of sickness in the way people have twisted the trauma of Dylan Mortensen and Bethany Funke into online conspiracy bait. Two young women lived through the unimaginable—and the internet turned them into suspects in their own survival. In this segment, I sit down with Robin Dreeke, retired FBI Special Agent, to walk through the actual police interviews of the surviving roommates in the Kohberger case. Not to dissect their words—but to understand them. Dylan heard noises. A dog barking. Someone say “someone’s here.” Bethany noticed light. Movement. A shift in the air. And none of it made sense until it was too late. That’s trauma. That’s shock. That’s the brain locking up to keep you alive. Robin helps us unpack how trained investigators read this kind of narrative:  – Why fragmented memory doesn’t equal fabrication  – How time distortion, confusion, and delay are common under threat  – And why influencers trying to score clout off survivor pain are the real rot in the system We walk through the timeline without judgment. We connect their words to forensic markers. And we push back hard on the cruel, idiotic noise that keeps trying to turn their trauma into “evidence.” Bryan Kohberger is guilty. He’s in prison. These women lived through hell. Let’s treat them like it. 🔖 HASHTAGS #HiddenKillers #BryanKohberger #DylanMortensen #BethanyFunke #RobinDreeke #TraumaInformed #RoommateInterview #VictimShaming #Idaho4 #TrueCrimeCommunity Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Yogurt Shop Murders: The Lives Destroyed by Police Tunnel Vision The Yogurt Shop Murders in Austin, Texas, haunted the city for more than three decades. But behind the tragic loss of four young girls—Jennifer Harbison, Sarah Harbison, Eliza Thomas, and Amy Ayers—was another layer of damage that only now is coming fully into focus. Police say they’ve finally solved it. DNA and forensic genealogy have identified the killer as Robert Eugene Brashers, a serial offender who died by suicide in 1999. But Brashers was never on their radar—not in 1991, not in 1999, and not when four young men were arrested, charged, and in two cases, convicted. This segment dives into the lives that were upended by bad police work, narrow thinking, and confessions that never should have been believed. Robert Springsteen and Michael Scott were tried and convicted based on confessions later proven unreliable. Their words were used against each other in violation of their constitutional rights. Years later, DNA ruled them out completely. The charges were dropped. But the damage? Still there. Maurice Pierce and Forrest Welborn were also pulled into the case. Welborn was never indicted. Pierce was released and lived under a cloud of suspicion until his tragic death in 2010 after a confrontation with an Austin police officer. The evidence never matched these men. The interviews were flawed. The investigative process prioritized pressure over precision. And the cost was enormous—not just for those falsely accused, but for the families waiting decades for justice. Now that the true killer has been identified, this episode takes a hard look at what went wrong, how it broke people who had nothing to do with the crime, and what must change to make sure this doesn’t happen again.

Costco, Coffee, and Cold Blood: Kohberger’s Post-Crime Behavior Decoded By FBI Let’s talk about what Bryan Kohberger did just hours after slaughtering four students in their sleep:  He went shopping. Calm. Casual. Coffee aisle. Grocery store. Like it was any other day. In this segment, I’m joined by retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke to break down the now-infamous Costco/grocery store footage showing Kohberger moving through aisles post-massacre. We’re not here for shock—we’re here for behavior. Because what he does in that video isn’t about caffeine. It’s about control. It's about how a killer works to look normal while dragging the weight of four bodies behind him. Robin takes us through how investigators read this kind of post-crime public behavior:  – Was he trying to cool off… or cover up?  – What does risk tolerance look like under cameras?  – Why does “acting normal” matter when it’s anything but?  – And what does this reveal about how Kohberger planned—or didn’t? We also unpack how seemingly meaningless choices—like self-checkout, cart behavior, aisle time, or eye contact—can become behavioral data points when layered with phone records, receipts, and surveillance clocks. Bryan Kohberger pleaded guilty. He’s in prison for life.  But what he did in that store—how he carried himself—still tells us who he really is. 🔖 HASHTAGS #BryanKohberger #HiddenKillers #RobinDreeke #KohbergerVideo #CostcoSurveillance #TrueCrime #PostCrimeBehavior #CriminalProfiling #CoffeeRun #BehaviorLeavesATrail Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Disclaimer  This story is based on Dan Markel’s 2014 family-court filings in Adelson v. Markel (Leon County, Florida). Everything described here comes from Dan’s sworn motions and memoranda. These are allegations he made; they were never adjudicated by a court, because hearings were postponed and Dan was killed before they could be heard. Nothing here should be taken as established fact or judicial finding. In 2014, just months before his murder, Florida State University law professor Dan Markel filed a series of motions in his divorce case with Wendi Adelson. These documents were never adjudicated — the hearings were postponed, and Dan was killed before the court could address them. But what remains are Dan’s own words, sworn and filed, laying out the version of events he wanted the judge to see. In this episode, we walk through those filings in detail. According to Dan, communication with his sons dwindled to almost nothing — just twenty-five minutes of Skype over three months. He alleged that calls were blocked, cut short, or pushed to voicemail. He claimed Wendi ignored court-ordered schedules, withheld addresses when traveling with the children, and cut him out of educational decisions. Dan also raised financial disputes. He alleged undisclosed accounts, understated income, and jewelry and vehicles listed at zero value. He even pointed to a Holocaust-era family ring, sworn to be returned if requested, that he said was withheld when his elderly uncle asked for it back. Beyond parenting and finances, Dan alleged a pattern of litigation tactics he described as obstructive: false testimony, frivolous motions, and discovery battles. To him, these weren’t just disagreements — they were signs of control and concealment. These filings are allegations, not findings. They were Dan’s story, his attempt to document the Wendi he said he had come to know. Tonight, we examine those court papers, what they reveal, and why Dan believed they mattered.
