FBI Behavior Expert On Stopping The Cycle Of Violence That Led To Charlie Kirk's Assassination

From Overcharged to Death Penalty: Luigi Mangione & Tyler Robinson Updates Breaking true crime developments are shaking two high-profile cases, with prosecutors and investigators moving decisively on both fronts. First, Luigi Mangione, accused of killing United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson, saw his controversial murder-one charge dismissed in New York. Prosecutors had originally pursued a terrorism-linked charge after Mangione shot Thompson in the back, but critics long argued this was an overreach. Under New York law, first-degree murder is tied to the victim’s status, not premeditation, and prosecutors’ attempt to frame the attack as a terrorist act was widely viewed as a stretch. While the top charge has been thrown out, Mangione still faces second-degree murder charges in New York and, more significantly, a federal murder case where the death penalty is already on the table. Crossing state lines to commit murder solidifies federal jurisdiction, and experts say the case should have been federal from the start. Mangione’s fate now rests with the federal system, where conviction could mean death row. Meanwhile, shocking new details have emerged in the case of Tyler Robinson, accused of assassinating conservative political figure Charlie Kirk during a public event. Prosecutors outlined seven serious charges, including aggravated murder, obstruction of justice, and firearm-related offenses. The aggravating factors cited were chilling: Robinson allegedly opened fire from 150 yards away in a crowded public space, putting numerous lives at risk, including children present at the scene. Prosecutors compared the setting to other high-profile assassination attempts, underscoring the public danger and trauma inflicted. Equally disturbing are the obstruction charges, which center on Robinson’s attempts to silence his partner and erase incriminating text messages. Forensic investigators recovered those communications, which prosecutors described as eye-opening evidence of intent and cover-up. In a powerful press conference, Utah County Attorney Jeff Gray emphasized that this case strikes at the core of American values — the right to free speech and public discourse without fear of being murdered for one’s beliefs. Comparing the assassination of Kirk to historic political violence, he warned of the chilling effect on democracy if such acts go unchecked. With a preliminary hearing scheduled, the government will now begin laying out its case in court, step by step, against Robinson. From Mangione’s federal death penalty exposure to Robinson’s calculated public attack, these true crime cases highlight the dangerous intersection of ideology, violence, and justice. Both cases will continue to dominate national headlines as courts determine the fate of two accused killers. #TrueCrime #CharlieKirk #TylerRobinson #LuigiMangione #BreakingNews #MurderTrial #DeathPenalty #FederalCase #JusticeSystem #CrimeNews Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Is the System Hiding Something in the Aaron Spencer Case? Why is Aaron Spencer — a father who allegedly saved his daughter from a man accused of dozens of sex crimes — the one facing murder charges? In this explosive segment, Tony Brueski and Bob Motta dig into the deeper, darker questions behind the Spencer case. Was this just a tragic legal misfire… or is something being covered up? With parallels to other controversial prosecutions and historical cases where justice systems have gone into self-protection mode, this discussion explores motive — not just Spencer’s, but the prosecution’s. Could pressing charges be a way to shield the county from future liability? Was there a network protecting the alleged predator, Michael Foster? And does the system even realize how broken it looks to the outside world? The team also tackles public outrage, grooming misconceptions, and what happens when institutions double down on failure instead of correcting it. This is a must-hear if you care about accountability.

Arkansas Judge Freed a Predator — Then Gagged the Entire Public And Silenced the Victim's Father!! The same judge who granted a $5,000 bond to an alleged predator… is now presiding over the murder case against the father who stopped him. This is where the Aaron Spencer case takes a disturbing institutional turn. In this segment, Tony and Bob dive into the broken systems behind this tragedy — including a judge who attempted to issue a gag order that would’ve silenced not just the parties involved… but the entire public. The Arkansas Supreme Court had to step in and strike it down, citing clear overreach. Meanwhile, Arkansas remains the only state in America that allows prosecutors to bring criminal charges without a grand jury or preliminary hearing. Bob walks us through how this rare “information-only” system opens the door for unchecked power — and how it's being used right now to prosecute a grieving father whose only crime may have been doing what the justice system wouldn’t. If you’ve ever wondered how broken the system can get — this segment is your answer.

Father Chases Down Predator After Daughter Vanishes: The Aaron Spencer Story What would you do if a known predator — already charged with dozens of crimes against your child — kidnapped your daughter in the middle of the night? This segment dives into the real-life nightmare of Aaron Spencer, a father from Arkansas who allegedly did what many say they would’ve done: he took action. After 67-year-old Michael Foster — accused of sexually abusing Spencer’s 14-year-old daughter — was released on a shockingly low $5,000 bond, Foster reportedly returned and abducted the girl again. That’s when Aaron jumped into his truck, found them, and confronted the man. What happened next is now at the center of a murder case. Tony Brueski and defense attorney Bob Motta walk through the emotional and legal landscape of this case. Is this murder — or self-defense? What makes this situation different from vigilante justice? And why is the father being prosecuted while the system failed to protect his daughter? This isn’t just a case. It’s a reckoning.

Full Breakdown: Chad Daybell’s Erotic Letters & Religious Meltdown It’s one of the strangest and most disturbing cases in modern true crime — and this is the full breakdown you’ve been waiting for. In this special full-length Hidden Killers episode, we bring you the entire Chad Daybell saga in one place. Tony Bruski, Stacy Cole, and Todd Michaels read through Chad’s erotic prison love letters to Lori Vallow — in his own AI-generated voice — with music, tone, and dramatic flair. The result is a mind-bending experience that feels like fan fiction from another dimension. We cover every surreal phrase, from “translated beings” to “loin fire,” and react in real time with insight, satire, and genuine discomfort. Then, the tone shifts — Chad’s later letter from prison paints himself as a misunderstood prophet, recounting his excommunication and spiritual loneliness… soundtracked, oddly, by Whitney Houston. Attorney Bob Motta joins to offer legal and psychological context, helping us understand what these letters reveal about Chad Daybell’s mindset — and the disturbing consequences of unchecked delusion. This is the full ride. Buckle up.

Chad Daybell’s Excommunication & Whitney Houston Obsession Just when you think Chad Daybell’s story can’t get stranger… it does. In this third installment, we pivot from prophetic romance to spiritual self-pity as Chad shifts into martyr mode. Through another handwritten prison letter, Chad describes his LDS mission, the persecution he claims to have faced, and ultimately, his excommunication from the church — which he says he learned about through a form letter delivered late by jail staff. But the truly surreal moment? Chad claims he had a deep spiritual awakening while listening to Whitney Houston’s “So Emotional.” Yes, really. Tony, Stacy, and special guest Bob Motta break it all down — from the narcissistic tone of Chad’s self-defense, to the psychological profile of someone who weaponizes religion as both shield and sword. Bob brings in legal insight, comparing Chad’s behavior to other high-control defendants who shape reality to fit their needs. Is Chad deluded… or dangerous? The segment ends on a chilling final comment from Bob: “Even if there’s a universe where Chad didn’t kill anyone... not very likely.” Hashtags:  #ChadDaybell #LoriVallow #WhitneyHouston #SoEmotional #Excommunication #TrueCrimePodcast #HiddenKillers #TonyBruski #BobMotta #CultBehavior Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Spiritual Seduction & Strange Beliefs: Inside Chad Daybell’s “Eternal Love” What happens when delusion, desire, and doomsday prophecies collide? In this second chapter of the Chad Daybell letter series, we go deeper into his handwritten “James and Elena” saga — and things get even more surreal. The letter, delivered via AI narration and dramatic music, recounts Chad and Lori’s supposed past lives, divine blessings during romantic moments, and a God-sanctioned mission that somehow includes hotel room intimacy and spiritual “cleaving.” Tony, Stacy, and Todd react in real-time to some of the strangest romantic writing ever put to paper. The commentary is sharp, emotional, and hilarious — especially when Stacy shares how her maintenance guys walked in during a particularly awkward passage. It’s one of those stories that has to be heard to be believed. But underneath the bizarre phrases and spiritual flirtation lies something darker: the use of religion and prophecy to justify obsession, control, and ultimately — destruction. This segment bridges the absurd and the disturbing, and sets the stage for the unraveling of Chad Daybell’s martyr complex in the episodes to follow.

Loin Fire & Cult Romance: Chad Daybell’s Prison Letter EXPOSED You’ve heard about Chad Daybell, but you haven’t heard him like this. In this jaw-dropping first segment, Tony Brueski, Stacy Cole, and Todd Michaels react live to one of Chad Daybell’s now-infamous prison love letters — read aloud in Chad’s own AI-generated voice. The letter is called “James and Elena,” and it reimagines Chad and Lori Vallow’s relationship as a prophetic, eternal love story written in the stars. It starts with a simple handshake… and escalates quickly into phrases like “translated beings,” “blue muppets,” and the now-notorious “loin fire.” Through laughter, disbelief, and sharp commentary, the team explores the blurred lines between spiritual delusion and manipulative fantasy. Why was this letter ever written — and what does it reveal about Chad’s mindset leading up to the crimes he’s now convicted of? This episode is as absurd as it is unsettling, peeling back the first layer of what Chad described as his divine mission. Spoiler alert: it starts with a doomsday conference and ends with the internet never being the same again.
