The Idaho Murders: The First 72 Hours Of Kohberger’s Chaos

"Too Disturbing to See”: Judge Blocks Graphic Kohberger Crime Scene Photos Should the worst moments of someone’s life be public forever? In this gripping episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, we unpack a powerful new court ruling in the Bryan Kohberger case—one that challenges how far the public’s right to know really goes. Idaho Judge Megan Marshall has officially barred the release of graphic crime scene photos depicting the slain bodies of four University of Idaho students: Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin. Why does this matter? Because we’re living in an age where “transparency” often doubles as clickbait. The photos in question, described by the judge as “incredibly disturbing,” were requested under Idaho’s Public Records Act. But citing emotional trauma to the families and legal precedent around survivor privacy, the court drew a clear line: some truths don’t need to be seen to be known. We break down the legal framework behind the ruling, including the landmark National Archives v. Favish decision and the Ninth Circuit’s recognition of post-mortem privacy. We also explore the tension between legitimate public interest and pure morbid curiosity—especially in the digital age where true crime content gets instantly repurposed, decontextualized, and weaponized online. What gets lost when we treat victim imagery as “just another post”? And what do we actually gain when the system chooses dignity over spectacle? This is not just a legal story—it’s a cultural reckoning. One that asks: Is it justice if the families suffer more after the verdict is in? Watch now as we separate justice from voyeurism—and explain why this ruling may reshape the future of transparency in high-profile true crime cases.

Why Hasn’t Anyone Been Charged In D4VD Tesla Death Case? FBI Agent Breaks Down the Gaps Celeste Rivas Hernandez was found dead in the front trunk of a Tesla that had been marked, cited, and towed — and no one noticed for weeks. One year earlier, she was reported missing. Five months later, she was caught on video near her family’s home. And now, a month after her body was discovered, there’s still no arrest. No charges. No confirmed suspect. This case isn’t closed — but it’s not moving either. In this Hidden Killers segment, retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer returns to walk us through the critical investigative red flags law enforcement should be acting on right now. She’s not speculating. She’s speaking as someone who’s handled these cases firsthand — when the pressure is high, the evidence is fading, and the public is losing trust. She covers: The tow yard failures — and what investigators may have missed in that 72-hour window How digital evidence from the Tesla or cell phones should be prioritized (and why delays can destroy a case) What the FBI would look for in the family’s timeline gaps if Celeste was known to be back home Whether law enforcement is being too cautious — or just doesn’t have the evidence Why the lack of a crime scene makes this exponentially harder — and what you chase when you have no location, no cause of death, and no murder weapon This is a behind-the-scenes look at how the federal system would handle this investigation, what law enforcement should be doing today — and why they may already be running out of time.

D4VD’s Tesla, a Body, and No Arrests: FBI Veteran Unpacks the Investigation Celeste Rivas Hernandez was just 13 when she was reported missing in April 2024. But five months later, a home surveillance camera caught her outside her house — alive. Then, a year later to the day, her decomposed body was found in the front trunk of a Tesla registered to rising music artist d4vd. No arrests. No suspect. And the LAPD says it’s still “unclear whether there’s any criminal culpability beyond concealment.” So how does this look through federal eyes? In this episode, retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer joins Hidden Killers to walk us through the investigation — step by step — the way it would be handled by a federal team. She breaks down the real priorities when a child is found dead in a vehicle. What evidence disappears first. What should’ve been locked down within hours. And what law enforcement could still be missing entirely. We dig into: The administrative timeline of the Tesla — marked, ticketed, towed, then searched How the gap between April 2024 and Sept 2025 should’ve been reconstructed Why chain of custody around viral evidence like the Tesla keycard could tank a case How the FBI uses vehicle telemetry, phone records, and location data to build a profile — even when no cause of death is determined And what Jennifer would do right now if this case landed back on her desk If you’ve been asking, Where are the charges? — this is the conversation that finally explains why we might not have them yet. And what it’s going to take to make sure this case doesn’t go cold. 🔖 HASHTAGS  #CelesteRivasHernandez #TrueCrime #d4vd #TeslaFrunk #FBIInvestigation #JenniferCoffindaffer #MissingChildren #JusticeForCeleste #HiddenKillers #CrimeSceneAnalysis Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Brian Walshe Trial: Why Even a ‘Dirty Cop’ Can’t Save You From Your Own Google Searches As the October 20th trial date approaches, the case against Brian Walshe—the Massachusetts father accused of murdering and dismembering his wife, Ana Walshe—has become one of the most closely watched legal battles in the state. And it’s not just the shocking allegations at stake. The defense is trying to pull the shadow of another high‑profile case—the Karen Read investigation—straight into this courtroom. In this episode, we break down how Walshe’s attorneys are arguing that Norfolk County is too tainted for a fair trial. They’re pointing to the now‑famous misconduct of former State Trooper Michael Proctor, who was removed from the Read case after crude, biased texts surfaced. Their message to the court: if the system was “dirty” there, it can’t be trusted here. But prosecutors say the Walshe case stands on its own—and the evidence they’re about to put in front of a jury may prove it. We examine the digital footprint investigators say Brian Walshe left in the hours and days after Ana disappeared: chilling Google searches about body disposal, decomposition, and whether you can be charged without a body. We look at the physical evidence pulled from a Swampscott dumpster—items prosecutors say carry Ana’s DNA, including a rug, jewelry, and a watch photographed on her wrist just hours before she vanished. This is where modern crime meets modern accountability: when your own clicks, purchases, and discarded objects become the star witnesses against you. In this episode, we unpack why the defense’s “crooked cop” strategy may falter in the face of independent, forensic evidence—and what this case tells us about how juries weigh misconduct claims against hard data. #BrianWalshe #AnaWalshe #KarenRead #TrueCrime #MurderTrial #DigitalForensics #LegalStrategy #CrimeAndJustice #HiddenKillers #CourtroomDrama Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
