Holeman’s Testimony EXPOSES How Badly Delphi Was Investigated
In today’s episode, we take a hard, relentless look at Lieutenant Jerry Holeman’s testimony in the Delphi murders case — and what it reveals about the investigation that led to the conviction of Richard Allen. This isn’t speculation. This isn’t rumor. This is straight from the sworn record: the contradictions, the assumptions, the missing analysis, and the investigative gaps that no one watching the press conferences ever got to see.
Holeman was positioned as one of the state’s anchors — a senior Indiana State Police investigator expected to bring clarity and confidence to a deeply complex double-homicide case. Instead, his testimony exposes just how shaky the investigative foundation really was. Sticks placed on the bodies of Abby and Libby were dismissed as “camouflage,” even though they concealed nothing. Then, suddenly, the state floated a psychological term — “undoing” — that had never appeared in the investigative record, and Holman endorsed it without hesitation.
His certainty about a “single offender” wasn’t based on forensic proof. It came from a belief he stated on the stand: that in multi-offender crimes, “someone usually talks.” Yet the case file contains exactly that — a suspect making disturbing comments investigators inexplicably labeled “no further action.”
We dive into everything Holman didn’t explain: why symbolic elements were barely analyzed, why alternative suspects weren’t vetted, why forensic opportunities were missed, why the bullet lacked field documentation, why major investigative questions were replaced with assumptions, and why his testimony often stood in open conflict with other investigators on essential questions like the FBI’s role.
This isn’t about guilt or innocence. It’s about whether the investigation that shaped the entire Delphi narrative was thorough, consistent, or grounded in evidence. And Holman’s testimony makes it undeniably clear: the holes aren’t small. They’re foundational.
If you care about the truth in Delphi, this breakdown matters.

New Kohberger Lawsuit Blows Open New Questions - Did WSU IGNORE RED FLAGS?
Tonight on Hidden Killers, we’re diving into the lawsuit that could finally crack open the one part of the Bryan Kohberger story that’s been sealed tight: what Washington State University actually knew about his behavior before the Idaho killings — and what they did or didn’t do with it.
The Goncalves family has officially taken the first major step toward suing WSU, and the claims are explosive. They’re arguing that the university wasn’t just a backdrop in Kohberger’s life — it was an institution with warnings stacking up in its hallways, complaints piling on desks, and a growing chorus of women saying the same thing: this man made them feel unsafe.
We now know multiple WSU faculty and graduate students reported Kohberger for intimidating conduct, blocking doorways, staring silently at women, hovering over desks, following people to their cars, and violating boundaries over and over. Some were so scared they asked for escorts at the end of the day. Others filed formal discrimination and harassment complaints. One professor even told colleagues she feared he’d go on to harm students someday.
And still — he remained in the program. Still teaching. Still representing the university. Still in university housing. Still collecting a paycheck.
The lawsuit argues that WSU had enough information to intervene long before Kohberger ever crossed into Idaho. Not because anyone predicted the crime — but because institutions have a duty to respond to patterns of harassment, intimidation, and escalating hostility. The families want answers, and they want every internal document: every HR complaint, every faculty meeting, every email where someone said, “Something is wrong with this guy.”
This case could reshape how universities handle red-flag students and employees. It could expose just how close institutions sometimes get to danger without ever stepping in. And it could finally tell these families whether the system that surrounded Kohberger ever tried to stop what so many people felt happening right in front of them.
Join me as we break down what this lawsuit means, what the families are fighting for, and why the truth matters now more than ever.

Epstein Files Drop: The Trauma Surge Survivors Will Face
The public sees headlines. Survivors feel earthquakes.
As the full Epstein files move toward release, America is fixated on the political implications. But for the survivors of Epstein and his network, this is something else entirely — a psychological rupture, a reopening of wounds, a wave of validation mingled with dread. And that emotional reality often gets lost in the noise.
In this gripping conversation, Tony Brueski is joined by psychotherapist Shavaun Scott to break down what this moment truly means for survivors, both publicly known and privately suffering.
Shavaun explains why major truth-reveals can reactivate trauma stored deep in the body. Why survivors can experience physical symptoms, flashbacks, emotional volatility, or sudden dissociation when their stories re-enter public consciousness. And why validation — even when desperately needed — is not always simple, gentle, or healing in the moment.
We also explore the psychological impact on families of survivors, who have carried their own secondary trauma for years. Many will watch their loved ones relive the past. Others will face the public glare, the online chaos, and the uncertainty that comes with knowing what the files might reveal.
And beyond survivors, Shavaun addresses something the public rarely considers: how this national moment may trigger people who were never directly connected to Epstein at all — anyone with a personal history of abuse, betrayal, or institutional failure.
This episode is a raw, compassionate, deeply informed look at the human cost behind the headlines.

Why the Delphi Investigation Collapsed — Former FBI Chief Explains
In this powerful conversation, I sit down with Robin Dreeke — retired FBI Special Agent and former head of the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program — for a deep dive into the psychological collapse that happened inside the Delphi investigation. This isn’t about evidence. This is about behavior. The behavior of the investigators who shaped the case.
The depositions reveal an investigative team working under immense pressure. And according to Robin, that pressure didn’t make the team sharper — it made them fracture. He explains how emotional fatigue, leadership confusion, and cognitive bias can break down an investigation from the inside long before the public ever sees the cracks.
We talk about why investigators remembered key events differently. Why deeply contradictory testimony came from people sitting at the same table. Why timeline elements were reframed. Why symbolic evidence was ignored. Why the BAU’s early assessment seemed to vanish. Why investigators became anchored to a single suspect. And why potential alternative suspects weren’t pursued with even basic curiosity.
Robin walks us through the behavioral science behind all of this: how fear reshapes memory, how teams under stress cling to simplistic narratives, how cognitive overload leads to dismissing complex information, and how internal uncertainty creates outward certainty that doesn’t match the reality behind the scenes.
This is not a takedown of law enforcement — it’s a human analysis of what happens when people face overwhelming expectation, limited resources, and a community demanding closure.
If you've always felt something “off” about the way Delphi unfolded, this episode will help you understand exactly what that “off” feeling is — and why the depositions expose a psychological unraveling at the heart of the case.

Teen, Anna Kepner Found Dead on Carnival Cruise — New Details Raise Serious Questions
An 18-year-old girl goes on a family cruise and never comes home. That alone is heartbreaking. But when the details start to surface — when the reporting suggests she wasn’t simply found in her bed, but under it… wrapped… covered… hidden — the silence from authorities becomes its own kind of story.
In today’s episode, we take a deep, fact-driven look at the death of Anna Kepner, the bright Florida high-school senior whose life ended aboard the Carnival Horizon in circumstances that are anything but ordinary. This isn’t speculation. This is the complete picture of what’s publicly known right now — the timeline, the evidence investigators already have, the procedures that should be happening immediately, and why these first days matter more than anyone wants to admit.
Anna wasn’t the typical cruise fatality. She wasn’t elderly. She wasn’t ill. She wasn’t alone. She was a teenager with her family, with plans, with a future. And when cases like this happen at sea, history tells us something important: if you don’t get answers early, you may never get them at all.
We break down why maritime investigations are so vulnerable, why evidence evaporates fast, and how cases like George Smith, Amy Lynn Bradley, and Rebecca Coriam show what happens when the early hours are lost. We look at what investigators already know — from keycard logs to hallway cameras to autopsy findings — and why that information matters right now, while the facts are still fresh.
This is not about sensationalism. It’s about urgency. It’s about accountability. It’s about making sure Anna’s story doesn’t get added to the long list of “unsolved at sea” headlines we revisit ten years from now. It’s about insisting that the truth is worth fighting for — now, while it’s still within reach.
