  • Bryan Kohberger’s Amazon Cart of Death: The Knife, The Selfie & The Psychology of Control | 2025 Year in Review

    Bryan Kohberger’s Amazon Cart of Death: The Knife, The Selfie & The Psychology of Control | 2025 Year in Review
    Nov 27 2025
    As part of our Hidden Killers 2025 Year in Review series, we revisit one of the most jaw-dropping chapters in the ongoing Bryan Kohberger case — the digital trail that may have done what he allegedly couldn’t avoid in person: exposing him completely.

    Investigators say Kohberger, the Ph.D. criminology student accused of killing four University of Idaho students in November 2022, may have left behind more than DNA on a knife sheath — he may have left a shopping list. A damning set of online purchases allegedly includes a K-Bar knife, matching sheath, and sharpening tool — all conveniently ordered from Amazon.

    In this Hidden Killers breakdown, Tony Brueski teams up with retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke and defense attorney Bob Motta (Defense Diaries) to dissect the chilling implications of the so-called “Amazon Evidence.”

    If true, this isn’t just forensic coincidence — it’s a psychological signature. Dreeke dives into what these purchases reveal about a possible obsessive, methodical mindset: someone fascinated by control, process, and precision. But in his precision, perhaps also arrogant — believing intellect could outsmart technology.

    Then, Motta joins Tony to examine how this alleged evidence fits into the broader defense battle. Could the prosecution argue that Kohberger’s shopping habits show premeditation? Or can the defense spin it as circumstantial — just a “collector’s curiosity” in military blades?

    And yes — that infamous thumbs-up shower selfie allegedly taken hours after the murders makes its appearance. Motta and Brueski unpack the surreal combination of vanity, detachment, and potential trophy-taking behavior. It’s the kind of moment that would be laughable, if it weren’t so horrifying.

    Together, they explore the haunting question that lingers behind every piece of evidence: Was this a one-time act of obsession, or a rehearsal for something darker?

  • Donna Adelson’s Downfall: The Jailhouse Matriarch Who Tried to Outsmart Justice | 2025 Year in Review

    Donna Adelson’s Downfall: The Jailhouse Matriarch Who Tried to Outsmart Justice | 2025 Year in Review
    Nov 27 2025
    As part of our Hidden Killers 2025 Year in Review series, we’re revisiting one of the most jaw-dropping courtroom sagas of the year — the unraveling of Donna Adelson, the 75-year-old grandmother accused of orchestrating the murder-for-hire plot that took the life of Florida State law professor Dan Markel.

    In two of the year’s most explosive episodes, Tony Brueski sat down with both Defense Attorney Bob Motta (Defense Diaries) and retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer to break down how a once-untouchable matriarch’s arrogance and denial helped destroy her family’s last shred of credibility.

    Donna’s courtroom appearance was supposed to humanize her. Instead, it showcased the same manipulative charm and self-delusion that prosecutors say fueled her alleged role in the murder conspiracy. From the stand, she painted herself as a frail victim of “inhumane jail conditions” — right before prosecutors rolled out recorded jailhouse calls in which she and her son Charlie Adelson discuss potential escape routes and non-extradition countries.

    Oops.

    Motta dissects the strategic disaster of Donna testifying at her own bond hearing — a move that may go down as one of the biggest self-inflicted wounds in recent courtroom history. Coffindaffer takes it even deeper, exposing the psychology behind Donna’s belief that she could still talk her way out of accountability, decades after manipulating everyone around her.

    From family loyalty turned liability to delusion on display, this episode captures the full scope of Donna’s implosion — and what it means for the rest of the Adelson family heading into the next phase of legal battles.

    Will she ever take a plea? Could she flip on her daughter Wendi? Or does Donna still believe she can win the game — even when the board’s already on fire?

  • This TikTok From Anna Kepner’s Mother Is More Disturbing Than the Case Itself

    This TikTok From Anna Kepner’s Mother Is More Disturbing Than the Case Itself
    Nov 27 2025
    In this episode, we take a brutally honest look at the now-viral TikTok posted by the biological mother of 18-year-old Anna Kepner — the teen found dead and concealed under a bed aboard the Carnival Horizon cruise ship.

    What should have been a grieving mother’s message somehow turned into a thirteen-minute monologue about everything but Anna.
    Excuses.
    Grievances.
    Old resentments.
    Contradictions.
    Life stories.
    Dental detours.
    Accusations.
    Chaos.

    And almost nothing about the daughter she lost.

    Tonight, I break it down section by section — with timestamps — stopping at the points where the emotional wheels fly off and the video reveals far more about the environment Anna came from than the mother ever intended.

    This isn’t mockery.
    This isn’t cruelty.
    This is context — because the instability, bitterness, and self-centered chaos on full display here help explain so much about the world Anna grew up in.

    Meanwhile, investigators are focused on real evidence:
    • a body concealed under a bed
    • keycard logs
    • cabin access patterns
    • surveillance footage
    • a 16-year-old stepsibling publicly named as a suspect
    • a stepmother pleading the Fifth
    • and a family structure collapsing in real time

    This TikTok doesn’t give answers — but it gives a devastating look at the dysfunction that shaped this case from day one.

    Watch as we break down the video, analyze each section, and look at what this emotional unraveling tells us about the broader investigation into Anna’s death.

    If you want the unfiltered truth behind the headlines — and the family chaos investigators are up against — this is the episode you need to hear.

    👇 Comment below — what was the most shocking part of her video to YOU?
