A 6-year-old brought a gun to class. His teacher, Abby Zwerner, ended the day in a hospital — shot through the chest and hand in front of her first graders. But what’s unfolding now inside a Virginia courtroom is almost more shocking than the shooting itself. This isn’t just a story about a child with a gun — it’s a story about four separate warnings ignored by school officials who had every chance to stop it. Teachers and staff begged Assistant Principal Ebony Parker to act. They told her the

Bryan Kohberger can’t leave his cell — but his story can. In the state of Idaho, there’s no Son of Sam law, meaning that a convicted murderer can legally make money from the story of his crimes. Books. Documentaries. Interviews. Royalties. In this episode, Tony Brueski and former prosecutor Eric Faddis expose how one of the most horrifying modern murder cases has collided with one of America’s oldest constitutional blind spots: the First Amendment’s protection of speech — even when that speech turns

Two stories. One broken system. In Idaho, Bryan Kohberger could legally make money off his own murders. In Virginia, a first-grade teacher named Abby Zwerner was shot after four separate warnings were ignored. Both stories show how America’s justice system has traded accountability for excuses — and how law, morality, and bureaucracy keep collapsing under their own contradictions. Tony Brueski and former prosecutor Eric Faddis connect these cases in one of their most morally charged episodes yet

In a quiet neighborhood in Ocala, Florida, a mother of four simply knocked on her neighbor’s door to ask for answers. What happened next was anything but simple. AJ Owens’ life ended when her neighbor, convinced her peace had been stolen, reached for a gun and fired through a locked door. This isn’t just a story of a shooting — it’s a psychological breakdown in full display.

Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins Tony Brueski, Stacy Cole, and Todd Michaels to unpack the warped psychology behind The Perfect Neighbor case — where “fear” became justification for a killing. For two years, Susan Lorincz saw danger in ordinary life: neighborhood kids, laughter, noise. That chronic hyper-vigilance — mixed with grievance and entitlement — built a narrative that only she believed. Scott explores how paranoia and cognitive distortion feed on isolation, turning imagined threat into

Alex Murdaugh’s name has become synonymous with deceit, greed, and betrayal. The former South Carolina attorney confessed to stealing millions from clients, friends, and even his own firm — but does that make him a murderer? In this explosive episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, we strip away the money, the scandals, and the headlines to ask one uncomfortable question: did the jury convict Alex Murdaugh for murder, or for being a monster they already hated?

At Scott Peterson’s 2004 trial, one expert witness sealed his fate. Dr. Terry D’Vor told jurors that baby Connor’s fetal measurements proved Laci Peterson died on or before Christmas Eve 2002—the same day Scott went fishing. Jurors called his testimony “the nail in the coffin.” Now, in 2024, D’Vor has recanted. After reviewing modern NIH and WHO fetal-growth studies, he signed an affidavit admitting the old 1990s charts he used were scientifically obsolete. The updated data show Connor’s
