Diddy Sentencing Breakdown: Prosecutor Explains What’s Really at Stake
Diddy Sentencing Breakdown: Prosecutor Explains What’s Really at Stake This isn’t about guilt anymore. That part’s done. Now the real weight kicks in. Federal prosecutors want 11+ years behind bars. Diddy’s defense team wants 14 months and therapy. And the judge? He has to decide how much of Sean Combs’ past — and his power — should shape what happens next. In this episode of Hidden Killers, criminal defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis joins us to break down what this sentencing really means — not just for Diddy, but for the entire justice system watching what happens when celebrity, abuse allegations, and federal sentencing law collide. We cover: Why federal prosecutors are pushing to apply sexual abuse cross-references — even without a conviction on those charges What the victim statements from Cassie Ventura and others can legally influence Whether pretrial detention at MDC Brooklyn counts for anything If fame helps or hurts a defendant in front of a federal judge And how §3553(a) factors — like deterrence, public trust, and the message sent to survivors — shape sentencing far more than just the guidelines We also explore what Diddy’s legal team might say in mitigation, whether allocution helps or backfires, and what the judge’s language on Friday could reveal — about this case and the system as a whole. If you’re wondering why Diddy could walk with time served… or face nearly a decade in prison — this is the legal roadmap you’ve been waiting for. 🔖 HASHTAGS #Diddy #SeanCombs #FederalSentencing #EricFaddis #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #JusticeSystem #VictimImpact #SentencingExplained #CelebrityJustice Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Diddy Sentenced to 4 Years — Judge Slams “Freak‑Offs,” Violence & Narcissistic Lies
Diddy Sentenced to 4 Years — Judge Slams “Freak‑Offs,” Violence & Narcissistic Lies Sean “Diddy” Combs has been sentenced to 4 years and 2 months in federal prison. But don’t let the number fool you — this wasn’t just about a legal outcome. It was a public reckoning. In this episode of Hidden Killers, Tony Brueski takes you inside the courtroom where the myth of Sean Combs finally shattered. The defense came in armed with trauma stories, addiction confessions, and an 11‑minute PR video. Combs begged for mercy, claimed he was “changed,” and tried to reframe his disgrace as growth. But Judge Arun Subramanian wasn’t buying it. In a brutal takedown, the judge called Combs out for years of calculated abuse — from the “freak-offs” to coercion, to hotel beatings caught on tape. He praised the “brave survivors” like Cassie Ventura and “Jane,” telling them: “We heard you.” And when Combs tried to paint himself as the American Dream, the judge fired back: “You were no John. You paid for and organized these acts.” The prosecution labeled Combs a “master puppeteer of his own image.” The court agreed. This isn’t a redemption story — it’s what happens when image control runs headfirst into evidence, and the spin finally breaks down. We break down every major moment: the narcissistic performance, the courtroom manipulation, the survivors’ courage, and the final moment where the system, at long last, refused to be played. It’s not about music. It’s not about status. It’s about accountability — real, overdue, and unapologetic. Subscribe for more true crime breakdowns with real stakes and no fluff.

13-Year-Old Found in d4vd’s Tesla: What the Law Needs to File Charges
13-Year-Old Found in d4vd’s Tesla: What the Law Needs to File Charges She was reported missing at 13. Then caught on camera five months later — alive and near home. One year later to the day, her body was found in the front trunk of a Tesla registered to rising musician d4vd. There’s no arrest. No charges. And the LAPD says it’s still “unclear whether there’s any criminal culpability beyond concealment.” In this episode of Hidden Killers, criminal defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis joins us to walk through exactly what’s holding this case back from being charged — and what it would actually take to move it forward. We dig into: How prosecutors handle a case where a “missing” teen is later seen on video Why deferred cause of death limits what can be charged Whether the placement of Celeste’s body in a Tesla frunk points to concealment or something more How celebrity status could influence charging decisions behind the scenes And why timeline inconsistencies — April missing report, September sighting, 1-year delay — could make or break the case We also get into what’s legally significant about viral evidence like the Tesla key card, whether the family’s silence holds legal weight, and how prosecutors weigh circumstantial cases when the science stalls out. If you’ve been asking, “Why hasn’t anyone been charged?” — this is the segment that finally answers that question. 🔖 HASHTAGS #CelesteRivasHernandez #d4vd #TrueCrime #EricFaddis #TeslaFrunk #JusticeForCeleste #HiddenKillers #LegalBreakdown #MissingTeen #ProsecutorExplains Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Banker Behind Murdaugh: Russell Laffitte Sentenced for Fraud & Conspiracy
The Banker Behind Murdaugh: Russell Laffitte Sentenced for Fraud & Conspiracy Russell Laffitte was once the golden boy of South Carolina banking—CEO of Palmetto State Bank, “Independent Banker of the Year,” heir to a century-old family dynasty. Now, he’s headed to federal prison. In this episode of Hidden Killers, host Tony Brueski takes you inside the courtroom and beyond, unpacking the full story behind Laffitte’s five-year federal sentence for bank fraud, conspiracy, and wire fraud—all committed to prop up none other than convicted killer Alex Murdaugh. This isn’t just about dirty money—it’s about the quiet power that makes crimes like Murdaugh’s possible. Laffitte didn’t pull the trigger. But he moved the money. He signed the loans. He drained trust accounts meant for injured clients and grieving families. And for years, he helped Alex Murdaugh steal from the people who needed protection most. We break down how the scheme worked, who got hurt, and why Laffitte finally pleaded guilty—despite originally fighting the charges. We also explore what his downfall says about the toxic loyalty, unchecked privilege, and small-town dynasties that enabled Murdaugh to wreak havoc for over a decade. Was Laffitte a victim of charm and pressure—or was he always this willing to betray the public trust? And how many more accomplices are still hiding in plain sight? With new details from federal documents, court transcripts, and expert analysis, this is the story of what happens when the people who are supposed to protect the system… become part of the rot. 👉 Subscribe for more deep dives into the Murdaugh web of deception—and the enablers who kept it spinning.
