Ret FBI Chief On What We Still Don’t Know About the Charlie Kirk Murder—And Why That’s a Problem

Ret FBI Chief On What We Still Don’t Know About the Charlie Kirk Murder—And Why That’s a Problem

When a public figure is killed, truth doesn’t always win the race.

In the days after Charlie Kirk’s assassination, the internet spun into overdrive—producing a blizzard of theories that ranged from suspicious to outlandish: a government setup, faked notes, AI-generated evidence, and even accusations that the shooting never happened at all.

But somewhere in the middle of that chaos sits the public—grieving, confused, skeptical, and hungry for answers.

In this episode of Hidden Killers, host Tony Brueski is joined by behavioral analyst and former FBI agent Robin Dreeke to discuss what really happens in the aftermath of a high-profile killing. Not just in court—but in the minds of millions of people watching from the outside.

Together, they explore:

  • Why we invent stories before the facts arrive


  • How algorithm-fueled media encourages certainty over truth


  • Which conspiracy claims are provably false—and which remain unconfirmed


  • How healthy skepticism can turn toxic


  • What the Kirk case teaches us about how truth struggles to survive in a fractured public square

This isn’t about taking the government’s word. It’s about asking better questions—and knowing when the answers don’t hold up.

Jeff Lacasse Speaks: Wendy Adelson’s Bitter Relocation Battles EXPOSED

Jeff Lacasse Speaks: Wendy Adelson’s Bitter Relocation Battles EXPOSED

Jeff Lacasse Speaks: Wendy Adelson’s Bitter Relocation Battles EXPOSED This segment brings us directly into the testimony of Jeff Lacasse, Wendy Adelson’s former boyfriend. What starts as a typical courtroom walkthrough—how they met, when they dated, who he was introduced to—quickly spirals into something far darker. Jeff recalls a March 2014 dinner with Wendy, her brother Charlie, and Katherine Magbanua, describing how “extremely close” Wendy was to her family. That closeness sets the stage for what comes next. The bombshell arrives when Jeff testifies about a chilling conversation: Wendy confided that Charlie had “looked into all options” for solving her relocation problem, including hiring someone to kill Dan Markel. The estimated price? Between $15,000 and $50,000. The statement is shocking in its casualness, treated by Wendy as just another option on the table. The hosts analyze Wendy’s anxiety during this period—her nervous stomach, the night she needed Pepto-Bismol, her obsessive frustration with the custody arrangement. It’s not just the testimony that’s telling, but the body language and reactions surrounding it. As the panel points out, Wendy’s behavior showed someone who knew “something was going down,” even if she wasn’t admitting it outright. This is where Jeff’s testimony cements itself as one of the strongest threads tying Wendy’s knowledge to her family’s plotting. It’s the kind of detail prosecutors lean on, and it raises the stakes for the Adelson family’s unraveling web of lies.

Wendy Adelson in the Hot Seat: What Donna’s Conviction Means Next

Wendy Adelson in the Hot Seat: What Donna’s Conviction Means Next

Wendy Adelson in the Hot Seat: What Donna’s Conviction Means Next In this first segment, the Hidden Killers team sets the tone with a mix of sharp commentary and off-the-wall humor. Donna Adelson has just been convicted, and the looming question is whether her daughter Wendy will face charges in the murder of Dan Markel. While speculation swirls, the hosts open up the conversation with personal riffs about exes, courtroom testimony, and the strange thought of what would happen if your former partners were asked to testify about your life. But this is Hidden Killers, so the humor quickly collides with dark reality. The team uses comedy—complete with jokes about walabe costumes, honey badger gloves, goat-milk backpacks, and reversed Golden Girls episodes—as a way to underline how surreal and grotesque the Adelson saga has become. Narcissism, denial, and family control emerge as themes before the panel transitions into the meat of the case: Jeff Lacasse’s testimony, the boyfriend who found himself dangerously close to the center of a murder plot. This opener is chaotic, funny, and unsettling, a snapshot of how dark crime stories bleed into the absurd. The laughter masks a much darker reality: while everyone jokes about exes, Wendy Adelson’s ex is about to provide testimony that points straight to discussions of murder for hire. This is the setup for one of the most damning witness accounts in the Adelson case, and we’re about to dive into it.

Wendi Adelson’s Ex-Boyfriends Words Come Back To Haunt Her

Wendi Adelson’s Ex-Boyfriends Words Come Back To Haunt Her

Wendi Adelson’s Ex-Boyfriends Words Come Back To Haunt Her For those who want the uncut experience, this full-length episode brings the entire arc of Jeff Lacasse’s testimony and the hosts’ analysis into one continuous package. From the opening speculation about Wendy’s future after Donna’s conviction, through the explosive details of relocation battles, murder-for-hire discussions, celebration dinners, and bizarre cross-examinations, every detail is here. The hosts break down the psychology of narcissistic families, the manipulation Jeff endured in his relationship with Wendy, and the chilling casualness with which the Adelsons discussed murder. There are lighter moments of banter—strange sleep routines, reversed Golden Girls episodes, dog cameos—but they serve as a stark contrast to the darkness of the testimony. This full cut showcases why Jeff Lacasse remains one of the prosecution’s strongest witnesses and why Wendy Adelson remains one of the most controversial figures in the Dan Markel murder case. Was she a pawn trapped in her mother’s control, or a participant who chose silence when she should have acted? That’s the question that lingers long after the testimony ends.

​Big Breakdown - How Many People Was Bryan Kohberger Stalking?

​Big Breakdown - How Many People Was Bryan Kohberger Stalking?

Big Breakdown - How Many People Was Bryan Kohberger Stalking? This episode of Hidden Killers Live with Tony Brueski, Stacy Cole, and Todd Michaels dives deep into one of the most unsettling new drops in the Brian Kohberger case — hundreds of images pulled from his phone, including bizarre selfies that paint a disturbing picture of the accused Idaho student killer’s state of mind. From mirror shots in his bathroom to unsettling poses with strange “codes” written on scraps of paper, the photos raise serious questions. Was Kohberger documenting himself for vanity, or leaving cryptic clues tied to the murders of four University of Idaho students? Viewers will see images that range from awkward, almost staged modeling attempts to chillingly deliberate shots that seem to hint at hidden meaning. But it doesn’t stop there. Newly obtained reports detail how Kohberger allegedly stalked women at Washington State University long before the murders — knocking on windows, watching them through doors, even following them to their homes. His behavior pushed boundaries of fear and control, blurring the line between creepy intrusions and escalating predatory patterns. Tony, Stacy, and Todd dissect the evidence in real time: Was this narcissism? A ritual? Or another way Kohberger fed his obsession with power and control? The team also asks the bigger question — why do red flags like this so often get ignored? From the lack of follow-up on stalking reports to the way predators slip through cracks in schools and workplaces, the conversation turns toward the systemic failures that allow these warning signs to fester until it’s too late. This is not just about photos. It’s about the psychology behind them, the danger of dismissing “creepy” behavior, and what society can do when the next Brian Kohberger starts showing the signs.
