Too “Traumatized” to Stand Trial? The Truth About Brian Walshe’s Competency Hearing

A haunting mystery unfolds in the disappearance of 9-year-old Melody Buzzard, a case that has gripped the true crime community and left investigators racing to uncover the truth. When Melody’s school first raised alarms after she stopped showing up in August, few could imagine the dark spiral that would follow. Her mother, Ashley Buzzard, already struggling with mental health issues after losing her husband in a motorcycle accident, became increasingly isolated and erratic — cutting Melody off from friends, family, and the outside world. According to new reports from NewsNation, Ashley took Melody on a bizarre 3,000-mile cross-country trip to Nebraska and back. But only Ashley returned. Questions immediately mounted: What happened on that road trip? Where is Melody now? The timeline defies logic — three days, thousands of miles, no rest — and the growing concern over Ashley’s mental state made the story even more alarming. Family members described her home as being in squalor, with no food and signs of serious neglect. Then came the breaking development: Ashley Buzzard was arrested, not initially for Melody’s disappearance, but for false imprisonment after allegedly trapping a longtime friend, Tyler Brewer, inside her home. Brewer claimed Ashley became violent and incoherent — and even made shocking statements about what happened to Melody. Although police have not confirmed the contents of that conversation, investigators believe it may hold crucial clues. Now, a private investigator named Bill Garcia has joined the case, working pro bono for Melody’s paternal family. As law enforcement and federal agencies dig deeper, this haunting case echoes the urgency and heartbreak of the Gabby Petito investigation. Every new clue, every timeline discrepancy, brings us closer to understanding what really happened to Melody Buzzard — and whether there’s still hope for a miracle ending. #MelodyBuzzard #AshleyBuzzard #MissingChild #TrueCrimeNews #BreakingNews #Investigation #JusticeForMelody #NewsNation #MissingPersons #TrueCrime Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Prince Andrew’s past just caught up with him — again. The U.S. House Oversight Committee has officially requested that Andrew Mountbatten Windsor, formerly known as Prince Andrew, sit for a transcribed interview under oath about his involvement with convicted sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein. This unprecedented move marks the first time a U.S. congressional body has formally sought testimony from a member of the British royal family in connection with Epstein’s network. In this powerful episode, Tony Brueski breaks down the explosive details of the congressional letter, signed by sixteen House Democrats, which cites flight logs, financial ledgers labeled “massage for Andrew,” and emails showing a disturbingly close relationship between Andrew and Epstein long after Epstein’s conviction. The committee’s request goes far beyond curiosity — they’re following the money, the documents, and the survivors’ testimony to uncover just how deep Andrew’s involvement really went. Congressman Suhas Subramanyam says multiple survivors have come forward alleging that Virginia Giuffre was not the only woman trafficked to Andrew — and that new leads could expose a broader pattern of abuse and complicity. With Epstein’s estate handing over more than 17,000 documents and financial records, investigators now believe they may be closing in on the truth. As the walls close in, Andrew’s refusal to cooperate could have devastating consequences — not just legally, but for the already fragile reputation of the monarchy. From the 2011 email where Andrew wrote to Epstein “We’re in this together,” to the alleged effort to smear Giuffre through his royal protection officer, this episode pulls no punches in exposing the arrogance, privilege, and denial that kept Epstein’s network alive. Subscribe and listen as Tony Brueski unpacks the congressional strategy, the survivor testimony, and what may finally be Prince Andrew’s reckoning. #PrinceAndrew #JeffreyEpstein #EpsteinFiles #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #RoyalScandal #Congress #SexTrafficking #HouseOversight #VirginiaGiuffre Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Authorities in Los Angeles are unraveling a chilling true crime case that began with the discovery of a 14-year-old girl’s body inside the trunk—known as the “frunk”—of a Tesla owned by recording artist David, a popular social media personality with a massive following. The victim, identified as Celeste Rivas Hernandez, had been missing for months before her severely decomposed remains were found sealed inside a black trash bag in the front compartment of the car. Former FBI agent and true crime analyst Jennifer Coffindaffer breaks down the disturbing evidence and the unanswered questions surrounding this case. Was this an accident, a cover-up, or something far darker? Despite widespread reports that the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner has yet to determine the cause or manner of Celeste’s death, the circumstances surrounding her discovery have left both investigators and the public horrified. Coffindaffer details how the Tesla was towed after being parked near David’s home for an extended period, the odor of decay leading police to the grisly discovery. The body—reportedly weighing only 70 pounds due to severe decomposition—was found in a space barely large enough to fit golf clubs, suggesting possible dismemberment or deliberate concealment. Evidence was later seized from David’s home under a search warrant, though investigators have not confirmed whether the crime occurred there. Experts in forensic entomology and anthropology are now examining the remains to determine how long Celeste had been dead and whether her injuries point to foul play. Comparisons have been made to other high-profile cases, including Gabby Petito and Brian Laundrie, as investigators race to uncover what really happened to the young teen who reportedly first connected with David through social media when she was just 12 years old. This heartbreaking story exposes the dark side of online fame and exploitation, as questions mount about how a child’s life ended in such a horrific way. Was it negligence, grooming, or a calculated act of violence? As new forensic results come to light, the world waits for justice for Celeste Rivas Hernandez. #CelesteRivasHernandez #TrueCrime #JenniferCoffindaffer #TeslaCase #BreakingNews #ForensicInvestigation #JusticeForCeleste #CrimeWatch #MissingPerson #TrueCrimeCommunity Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Lonoke County Prosecutor is calling it vigilante justice. The defense calls it a father protecting his child. In this Hidden Killers interview, Tony Brueski and Bob Motta unpack the State’s new filing in the Aaron Spencer case — a motion to use body-cam footage recorded three months before the shooting. In it, Spencer, furious after learning his daughter had been assaulted, tells deputies he doesn’t trust the system and says, “Sometimes you’ve got to handle things yourself.” The prosecution wants those words played for jurors as proof of premeditation. The defense argues they show grief and disbelief, not intent. Bob Motta explains how prosecutors use Rule 404(b) to sway perception, how the defense fights back, and why this single piece of evidence could define the case. This is the battle over emotion versus law, instinct versus restraint — and what happens when the justice system fails before a father ever pulls the trigger. #HiddenKillers #BobMotta #AaronSpencer #TonyBrueski #TrueCrime #ArkansasCase #VigilanteOrProtector #JusticeSystem #Rule404b #SelfDefense Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

They thought they were saving a life. Jennifer and Robbie Tower opened their Florida home to a 14-year-old orphan from Ukraine — a boy they believed they could love into healing. Eight years later, that same boy is accused of murdering them in cold blood. This is the chilling story behind what the media is calling “The Evil Orphan” case. Prosecutors say Dima Tower, now 21, slaughtered his adoptive parents inside their North Port home, leaving them lying head-to-head on the floor, surrounded by blood. Then he allegedly fled the scene, leading police on a high-speed chase down I-75 before being caught at a gas station — still wearing the blood-stained clothes from that night. Court documents show a disturbing pattern that began long before the murders: police calls for domestic violence, reports of fear in the home, even a father who admitted he locked his door at night to stay safe from his son. Now, Tower faces two counts of first-degree murder and the possibility of life behind bars. The defense calls it trauma. The prosecution calls it evil. In this episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, we dig into the horrific details, the psychological unraveling, and the question haunting everyone who’s followed this case: Can love really save a damaged soul — or does evil sometimes win? #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #EvilOrphan #DimaTower #TrueCrime #FloridaCrime #AdoptionGoneWrong #MurderTrial #NorthPort #CourtTV #PsychologicalCrime Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

In a stunning new legal twist, Danity Kane alum Dawn Richard is taking on Sean “Diddy” Combs once again — and this time, the allegations reach all the way inside a federal prison. According to newly filed court documents on November 5, 2025, Richard’s attorneys claim that Diddy tampered with a key witness in her civil case while incarcerated. The alleged incident, said to have occurred in September 2024, underscores what prosecutors have long warned: that Combs’ influence and intimidation didn’t stop at conviction. Her legal team wrote that “there is no indication that Combs’ ability or willingness to act on his threats ever ceased,” arguing that even from behind bars, the Bad Boy mogul continued to manipulate the narrative and maintain control. Prosecutors in Diddy’s federal case echoed similar concerns last year, citing a “pattern of witness tampering, obstruction, and coercion” when opposing his bail — which the court denied four separate times. Dawn Richard’s lawsuit claims years of physical and emotional abuse, retaliation, and intimidation during her time under Diddy’s label. She says the fear never ended — and that his alleged attempts to interfere from prison prove it. Meanwhile, Diddy’s legal team continues to deny all wrongdoing, calling these civil suits opportunistic. But with each new filing, the walls around his empire seem to tighten. In this Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski breakdown, we go inside the new court filings, the psychological dynamics of control, and what this could mean for Diddy’s appeal, Dawn Richard’s case, and the larger reckoning shaking the entertainment industry. 🔔 Subscribe for more deep-dive true crime analysis and exclusive expert commentary. #Diddy #DawnRichard #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #BadBoyRecords #WitnessTampering #TrueCrime #CelebrityTrial #Justice #CourtFiling Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

A missing nine-year-old. A mother in handcuffs. A timeline that makes no sense. In this Hidden Killers exclusive, Tony Brueski sits down with defense attorney Bob Motta to dissect the bizarre twists in the Melodee Buzzard disappearance. Ashlee Buzzard, the child’s mother, is now facing a felony false-imprisonment charge — a development investigators say isn’t directly tied to Melodee’s disappearance, but raises serious questions about control, motive, and manipulation. Tony and Bob walk through the confusing chronology — the wigs, the license-plate swap, and the unexplained road trip that ended with a child gone and a mother behind bars. Bob explains how law enforcement sometimes files “unrelated” charges to pressure cooperation, how prosecutors build leverage without tipping their full hand, and why the public is often left with half the story. This isn’t just a missing-child case. It’s a look at how families fracture under secrecy, and how investigators read between the lines when no one is talking. #HiddenKillers #BobMotta #MelodeeBuzzard #AshleeBuzzard #TonyBrueski #TrueCrime #MissingChild #BuzzardCase #Investigation #Justice Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
