Imagine fifteen people—five of whom personally knew Laci Peterson—telling police they saw her alive, walking her golden retriever, after her husband had already left for his solo fishing trip. Now imagine every single one of them ignored. That’s the picture painted by the LA Innocence Project in its new 600-page petition for a new trial. The filing lists more than a dozen witnesses who saw a pregnant woman matching Laci’s description between 9:45 and 11:30 a.m. on Dec 24 2002, right in the

Sean “Diddy” Combs — the man who once ruled hip-hop, fashion, and nightlife — now faces a very different kind of countdown: 921 days until freedom. Federal Bureau of Prisons records confirm Diddy’s expected release date as May 8, 2028, following his 50-month sentence for charges of transportation to engage in prostitution. But the real story isn’t about a date — it’s about survival. In this Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski exclusive, we dive deep into what life behind bars really means for one of

Before Bryan Kohberger pleaded guilty to the brutal murders of four University of Idaho students, his defense team was quietly preparing a courtroom strategy that would have shocked the nation. According to newly unsealed court filings, Kohberger planned to call friends of the victims — and even the survivors themselves — as defense witnesses. Among them: Dylan Mortensen and Bethany Funke, the two young women who lived through that horrific night in November 2022. Also on the list were Emily

In this chilling segment of Hidden Killers Live, Tony Brueski reads and dissects Chad Daybell’s Letter #7 — a rambling, supernatural account written years before the doomsday murders that would make him infamous. In the letter, Daybell claims that while working as the sexton of a Utah cemetery, he was haunted by the ghost of a petty thief named Eddie — a spirit that supposedly opened gates, picked locks, and moved padlocks onto pegs. He writes that he eventually told Eddie to “go toward the

Before Donna Adelson was a headline — before the mugshots, the trials, the whispers about murder-for-hire — she was a woman built for control. In this episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, we trace how Donna Adelson became Donna Adelson — from her 1950s New York upbringing to the mindset that would one day define her downfall. What happens when an entire generation is raised to believe obedience equals love, achievement equals safety, and perfection equals survival? Tony digs into the

In this episode of Hidden Killers Live, Tony Brueski, Stacy Cole, and Todd Michaels take listeners inside a letter that shocked everyone who followed the Dan Markel murder case — a 2024 note written by convicted killer Donna Adelson from her jail cell. It begins with a mother’s lament — the pain of missing her grandsons’ first day of school — but quickly morphs into something darker. “If I don’t get out, then hopefully I die soon so that no one remembers me in prison garb behind bars.” The words

In a quiet Virginia suburb, what looked like a perfect family hid something unthinkable. When police walked into the Banfield home in Herndon, they found 37-year-old nurse Christine Banfield stabbed to death and 39-year-old Joseph Ryan shot in the head. Her husband, former IRS agent Brendan Banfield, claimed it was self-defense — that Ryan had broken in and attacked his wife. But investigators soon discovered the scene was staged. Christine had never met Joseph Ryan. In reality, he had been lured

2025/10/27

For more than twenty years, the name Scott Peterson has been synonymous with guilt. A husband who smiled on camera, a pregnant wife who vanished on Christmas Eve, and a nation that decided — almost instantly — that he was the killer. But now, the Los Angeles Innocence Project has filed a 2,600-page petition that could force the courts — and the public — to look again. Their filing doesn’t claim Scott Peterson is innocent. It asks a harder question: What if the story we all accepted isn’t the

Sean “Diddy” Combs allegedly woke up in his Brooklyn prison cell with a knife pressed against his throat. According to a close friend, it was a warning — a scare that could’ve ended with blood on the floor. But here’s the question that needs to be asked: why is this the story everyone’s talking about? Because if even half of what’s been alleged about Diddy is true, then the real horror didn’t start behind bars. It started long before — behind locked hotel doors, studio walls, and a decade of

“I don’t know anyone who protects a predator… other than a predator.” That single line cuts to the core of this conversation. In this Hidden Killers exclusive, Tony Brueski sits down with former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke to dissect one of the darkest truths in human behavior — why predators don’t just act alone. They build networks. They build protection systems. They build institutions that mirror their pathology. This isn’t just about Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, or Virginia

When a man who orchestrated a murder-for-hire scheme starts claiming he didn’t get a fair trial, you know the irony writes itself. Charlie Adelson — the Miami dentist convicted for the 2014 murder of Florida State law professor Dan Markel — is now hanging his hopes on an appeal that looks more like a delay tactic than a legal triumph. He says Tallahassee was too biased, too saturated with media, too impossible for him to get a fair jury. But the State of Florida isn’t buying it. In a pointed,

The man charged with her kidnapping — Keon King — was no stranger to the Philadelphia District Attorney’s Office. Earlier this year, King had been arrested for stalking and strangling another woman.
