Inside Murdaugh House 12 Hours After Murders: "Nothing Was Right" | Blanca Simpson Part 4
Twelve hours after Maggie and Paul Murdaugh were gunned down at the Moselle kennels, their housekeeper Blanca Simpson walked through the front door of the family home. What she found inside would haunt her — and raise questions that the official investigation never answered. In part four of this exclusive interview — the longest and most intense segment of the series — Blanca describes receiving the phone call from Alex, the slow-motion drive to the property with the radio turned off, and stepping into a house that felt different. Cold. Wrong. The pajamas were laid out in the laundry room doorway — but with underclothes that Maggie never wore to bed. A single wedding band was found under the driver's seat of Maggie's Mercedes — but Maggie wore three rings, and if she removed one, she removed all of them. A beach towel from the house ended up in Alex's Suburban. And Alex himself came to Blanca days later, pacing and disheveled, asking if she remembered what shirt he was wearing that morning. She remembered. It wasn't the one he claimed. This segment covers the evidence that made Blanca start piecing things together — the phone data showing Alex's sudden burst of movement, the dogs that never barked at any stranger, and her growing belief that someone helped Alex clean up after the murders. If you've been following this series, this is the episode where everything clicks into place. Blanca isn't speculating wildly — she's connecting details that only someone inside that house would notice. Part five is the finale, where I ask her directly: Did Alex Murdaugh pull the trigger? Her answer is immediate.

Jesse Butler Walked Free. Will Canyn Porter? | Stillwater's Teen R@pist Problem
Two teenage boys in Stillwater, Oklahoma. Both charged with first-degree rape. Both charged with strangulation. Both were 17 at the time of the alleged crimes. Both attacked teenage girls they were dating. One of them walked out of court with community service. The other is sitting in jail on $30,000 bond, facing five years to life. What's the difference? Jesse Mack Butler was convicted on ten rape-related charges in 2025. One of his victims nearly died—her doctor testified she was thirty seconds from death during a strangulation attack. Police found videos on his phone of the assaults. He faced 78 years in prison. He got 150 hours of community service. Butler's father is the former Director of Operations for Oklahoma State football. The judge who granted him youthful offender status holds two degrees from OSU. A state lawmaker has called for a grand jury investigation, saying the deal "smacks of political favor." Now there's a second case. Canyn Rion Porter was charged in December 2025 with first-degree rape and strangulation. The allegations are strikingly similar. But Porter doesn't have family connections to OSU. He doesn't have a private attorney. He applied for a public defender. So what happens now? Does Porter get the same deal Butler got? Or does he go to prison while Butler stays home under a curfew? Either answer raises serious questions about how justice works in Payne County—and who it works for. In this video, I break down both cases, the controversial youthful offender statute, the family connections that have people asking questions, and what these cases tell us about accountability in America. The question isn't just what happens to Jesse Butler or Canyn Porter. It's what happens to the next girl. #JesseButler #CanynPorter #Stillwater #StillwaterOklahoma #OklahomaState #OSU #PayneCounty #YouthfulOffender #JusticeSystem #TrueCrime #TrueCrimeNews #CriminalJustice #JJHumphrey #CommunityService #TwoTierJustice Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Why Kohberger Is Writing to Serial Killers | Psychotherapist Breaks It Down
While threatening self-harm, Bryan Kohberger is reportedly reaching out to serial offenders across the country — trying to build relationships with the very people he once studied academically. It’s a pattern that has stunned investigators and raised deeper questions about identity, belonging, and psychological validation. Today on Hidden Killers, psychotherapist Shavaun Scott helps us untangle what this behavior reveals. Why would someone convicted of killing four college students seek connection not with family, supporters, or advocates — but with other violent offenders? What does that choice of outreach tell us about how he sees himself and the world around him? Sources say Kohberger views himself as “above” the general prison population. He expected notoriety, maybe even dark fascination, when he entered the system. Instead, he got contempt — rejection from inmates who taunt him, mock him, and refuse to engage. For someone craving recognition, rejection can feel like psychological collapse. So why turn to serial offenders? Shavaun explores whether this is about validation, identity fusion, or the need to belong to a group he believes mirrors his own self-image. She also explains the recognizable profile of individuals who study violent offenders not to prevent harm — but because they identify with them emotionally or intellectually. Kohberger’s behavior is happening in tandem with his escalating demands and self-harm threats. These aren’t random, disconnected acts, Shavaun says — they’re part of a larger pattern: a man whose sense of identity relies heavily on external reinforcement. And inside prison, he’s not getting the reaction he believed he deserved. We also discuss why he clings so tightly to the “why” behind his crime — the one thing prosecutors never demanded and the one thing he refuses to give up. #BryanKohberger #HiddenKillers #SerialOffenders #ShavaunScott #PrisonPsychology #TonyBrueski #CriminalIdentity #StatusDynamics #TrueCrimeAnalysis #PsychologicalProfiling Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Inside the Brian Walshe Defense: Bob Motta Breaks Down the Entire Strategy
In this full episode, Bob Motta joins us to dissect the entire defense strategy playing out in the Brian Walshe murder trial — a strategy built not on one cohesive story, but on three shaky pillars the defense is hoping can hold up under the weight of the evidence. First, Bob walks us through the “sudden death” claim — the idea that Ana died unexpectedly in her sleep and Brian panicked. Not murdered. Not harmed. Just suddenly gone. Bob explains why the defense is leaning into this bizarre narrative, what they were trying to draw out of the medical examiner, and whether a jury will ever buy that a medical fluke led to dismemberment and disposal. Then we turn to the “clean bedroom” angle. The defense hopes the lack of forensic evidence in that room creates doubt. Bob breaks down whether that’s a real foothold or a mirage — because while the bedroom is spotless, the basement is a forensic crime story written in blood. We explore whether jurors interpret a clean space as innocence… or bleach. Finally, we tackle the heart of the case: there is no body. No autopsy. No official cause of death. Bob explains how prosecutors build a murder case anyway, what standards they must meet, and why circumstantial evidence — when stacked high enough — becomes its own undeniable force. This conversation is the full blueprint of where the defense is going, what they hope the jury grabs onto, and where the entire strategy may collapse under its own contradictions. If you want to understand not just what the defense is arguing, but why, this is the full breakdown. #BrianWalshe #AnaWalshe #BobMotta #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimePodcast #MurderTrial #LegalAnalysis #TonyBrueski #CourtroomBreakdown Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Kohberger Threatens to End It All—While Shopping for Serial Killer Pen Pals
Bryan Kohberger is threatening to harm himself if guards don't move him out of J-Block. He's also reportedly reaching out to serial killers across the country—trying to network with men he apparently admires. One of these is crisis behavior. The other is networking. You don't get to be both. According to retired homicide detective Chris McDonough, who says he has sources inside the Idaho Maximum Security Institution, Kohberger has been writing messages to staff warning he'll harm himself if they don't transfer him. But at the same time, he's actively trying to connect with high-profile killers—both inside and outside the prison walls. McDonough's assessment: "It could be a manipulation tactic, almost like a toddler having a tantrum, to get himself into a better unit." This is a man who filed his first complaint on Day 2. Who's submitted at least five formal grievances in four months. Who complained about the bananas not being the kind he likes. Who fought paying $3,000 to reimburse the families of Kaylee Goncalves and Madison Mogen for their daughters' urns—while sitting on nearly $29,000 in donations to his own jail fund. The inmates in J-Block won't accept him. They taunt him through the vents. They've threatened him. They've made his life miserable. He expected notoriety when he walked in. He got contempt. So now he's working two angles: self-harm threats to manipulate staff, and serial killer outreach to find peers who might see him as an equal. This isn't despair. This is a man who lost control—and can't stand it. Kaylee Goncalves. Madison Mogen. Xana Kernodle. Ethan Chapin. They didn't get to file complaints. They didn't get to negotiate. Remember them. #BryanKohberger #IdahoFour #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #IdahoStudentMurders #KayleeGoncalves #MadisonMogen #XanaKernodle #EthanChapin #CrimePodcast #TrueCrimeYouTube #SerialKillers #Justice Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
