    Donna Adelson’s Sentencing Was a Masterclass in Narcissism-WEEK IN REVIEW

    Donna Adelson was sentenced to life in prison—but you wouldn’t know it by her behavior in court. What was meant to be a solemn moment of justice turned into a shocking display of entitlement, arrogance, and complete lack of remorse. In this episode, we break down the bizarre spectacle of Donna’s sentencing. From her declaration of innocence to her scolding of the jury and the judge, Donna seemed more interested in controlling the narrative than accepting her fate. But it didn’t end there—her husband Harvey doubled down with a tone-deaf rant blaming the system, the media, and the world for their downfall. We cover:  • Donna’s courtroom performance—defiance over remorse  • Judge Everett’s powerful rebuttal  • Harvey Adelson’s surreal tirade  • The parade of tone-deaf “supporters”  • The contrast with the Markel family’s grace and silence This wasn’t justice denied—it was justice exposed. A family so consumed by narcissism, they turned a sentencing hearing into a theater of delusion. #DonnaAdelson #DanMarkel #MarkelMurder #CourtroomDrama #AdelsonFamily #LifeSentence #TrueCrimeAnalysis #NarcissismInCourt #JusticeForDan #HiddenKillers Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

    The Adelsons Fall Apart: Narcissism, Denial, and Legacy in Shambles-WEEK IN REVIEW

    It wasn’t just Donna Adelson who broke down at sentencing—it was her husband Harvey, too. And in their back-to-back emotional outbursts, we witnessed the unraveling of an entire family narrative that had held for over a decade. In this joint psychological breakdown, Tony Brueski and Stacy Cole are joined by psychotherapist Shavaun Scott to dissect the most emotionally charged—and revealing—moments of both Donna and Harvey’s final courtroom statements. Together, we examine: How narcissistic collapse shows up in real time through fractured speech, emotional spirals, and selective memory Why Harvey’s grief appears genuine—but is directed toward defending the illusion, not the truth How Donna’s use of oaths, denial, and moral inversion reframes her as a victim of the justice system The family system that enabled this collapse—and what happens when loyalty outweighs accountability This is what it sounds like when a legacy built on image can no longer hold the weight of the truth. 🔔 Subscribe for full courtroom analysis, expert interviews, and behavioral breakdowns from the biggest trials in America. #AdelsonTrial #DonnaAdelson #HarveyAdelson #DanMarkel #FamilyCollapse #NarcissisticCollapse #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #CourtroomDrama #TonyBrueski #ShavaunScott Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

    Ellen Greenberg Report DESTROYED by Its Own Logic: What Are They Hiding? -WEEK IN REVIEW

    The death of Ellen Greenberg has haunted Philadelphia for over a decade—but now, a new 2025 “independent” review by the same Medical Examiner’s Office that once ruled her death a homicide, then reversed itself, has reignited public outrage. In this episode, we break down the new 32-page report by Dr. Lindsay Simon—billed as a “fresh look”—and expose just how deeply embedded bias and institutional self-preservation appear to be in its findings. From selective evidence interpretation to implausible forensic leaps, the review paints a troubling picture of a system investigating itself and calling it justice. We dissect the major red flags:  • The knife in her chest, 20+ stab wounds—some in the back—and a locked apartment  • Claims of “no signs of struggle,” despite over 30 bruises on Ellen’s body  • The “spinal cord artifact” explanation that dismisses incapacitation  • Psychological characterizations based on anxiety—not suicidal ideation  • How this report dismisses experts, overlooks key inconsistencies, and leans on confirmation bias Is this truly an objective review? Or is it a bureaucratic performance designed to close the book and shield the city from liability? We’re unpacking every flaw, contradiction, and narrative sleight-of-hand in a case that refuses to stay silent.  #EllenGreenberg #TrueCrime #MedicalExaminer #JusticeForEllen #PhiladelphiaCrime #ForensicFailure #CoverUp #WrongfulDeath #TrueCrimePodcast #DatelineStyle Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

    Is Harvey Adelson Next? The Unindicted Shadow in the Markel Murder Plot-WEEK IN REVIEW

    Harvey Adelson hasn’t been charged. But he’s far from forgotten. In this episode, we walk the razor’s edge of what the evidence actually says about Harvey Adelson—the patriarch of a family fractured by murder, scandal, and courtroom spectacle. From wiretaps and Zelle subpoenas to call-detail records and coded texts, we examine the mounting circumstantial web that places Harvey near the center of a conspiracy that has already led to multiple life sentences. We dissect:  • Messages about a "birthday present" that prosecutors say point to premeditated planning  • Call records placing Harvey’s number in contact with key figures in the murder plot  • Wiretap approvals and jailhouse testimony naming him in alleged obstruction  • Zelle account activity and witness tampering claims  • The Vietnam jet bridge arrest with Donna—was it awareness or coincidence? This is not a story of guilt by association. It’s a careful, fact-based analysis of what’s already in the public record—and whether it’s enough to tip the scales toward indictment. Because in the Markel murder case, silence isn’t the same as innocence. It’s just the part of the story waiting to be told.  #HarveyAdelson #DanMarkelMurder #UnindictedCoConspirator #AdelsonFamily #TrueCrimePodcast #ConspiracyCase #WitnessTampering #ZelleTransfers #MarkelJustice #HiddenKillers Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

    Ellen Greenberg Report Is Filled With Lies and Suspension Of Reality-WEEK IN REVIEW

    If the system’s goal was to quiet the Ellen Greenberg case with one last official ruling — it failed. Badly. The 2025 report from Philadelphia’s Medical Examiner, reclassifying nothing and explaining even less, is now being dissected by the people who understand just how dangerous this kind of language can be. In this episode, defense attorney Bob Motta joins Tony Brueski and Stacy Cole to pull the curtain back on how institutions like the M.E.’s office use carefully worded findings to sidestep accountability. They examine what the report conveniently redefines, what it conveniently omits, and why this case now represents a larger crisis in public trust. This isn’t theory. This is what happens when legal self-preservation takes precedence over factual clarity — and it’s playing out in plain sight. The Ellen Greenberg case isn’t just unsolved. It’s being strategically sealed shut. #EllenGreenberg #JusticeForEllenGreenberg #EllenGreenbergCase #BobMotta #HiddenKillersPodcast #TrueCrimeTruth #SystemicFailure #MedicalExaminerReport #InstitutionalDeflection #TonyBrueski Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

  6. Why Did Bryan Kohberger Really Plead Guilty? The Family Factor? -WEEK IN REVIEW

    Why Did Bryan Kohberger Really Plead Guilty? The Family Factor? -WEEK IN REVIEW

    Why did Bryan Kohberger suddenly plead guilty after nearly two years of pretrial warfare? The answer might be more personal—and more psychological—than legal. In this breakdown, we explore how the revelation that Kohberger’s sister, Amanda, was on the prosecution’s witness list may have triggered a collapse in his carefully controlled defense. For a man driven by dominance, image, and manipulation, the prospect of family testifying against him may have cut deeper than any courtroom battle. We unpack:  • The timeline between Amanda being listed and Kohberger's plea  • What his control-obsessed behavior says about the psychology of his decision  • How avoiding a trial may have spared his family—and preserved his own narcissistic narrative  • The legal pressures: failed suppression motions, damning DNA rulings, and an inevitable death penalty trial  • The psychology of narcissistic collapse and what it looks like when the mask slips Was it guilt, fear, or one last act of ego-driven control disguised as mercy? This is the deeper story behind Kohberger’s plea—and what it says about him.  #BryanKohberger #IdahoMurders #KohbergerGuilty #CriminalPsychology #TrueCrimeBreakdown #KohbergerFamily #ControlAndCollapse #TrueCrimePodcast #PsychologicalProfile #HiddenKillers Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

    Bryan Kohberger’s Costco Video & The Psychology of Calm After Killing-WEEK IN REVIEW

    They kill. Then they smile for cameras, clock in for work, or go grocery shopping. In this chilling Hidden Killers investigation, we explore “The Performance of Normal” — the haunting calm that follows murder. Starting with Bryan Kohberger, who prosecutors say was seen casually shopping hours after the brutal Idaho student murders, we dive deep into the psychology behind that eerie stillness. Why do some killers seem completely composed after committing horrific crimes? From John List, who ate lunch next to his wife’s body before vanishing for 18 years… To Dennis Rader (BTK), who left a Boy Scout camp to murder and came back by morning to flip pancakes for the troop. To Chris Watts, who went to work just hours after killing his pregnant wife and daughters. To Stephen McDaniel, who gave a TV interview about his “missing” neighbor — the same woman he had just murdered. To Colonel Russell Williams, a respected Canadian military commander smiling for charity photos days after taking a life. To Tyler Hadley, the Florida teen who killed his parents, then threw a party with their bodies hidden in the next room. To Susan Smith, the mother who tearfully begged for her children’s return after drowning them herself. And Ian Huntley, the school caretaker who joined the search for two girls he had already murdered. This episode examines the psychology of composure — how killers weaponize calmness, and why society so often mistakes it for innocence. It’s not just what they do. It’s what they don’t. Because sometimes, evil doesn’t look like rage. It looks like control. It looks like “normal.” 🔔 Subscribe for more true crime breakdowns with Tony Brueski — the cases that stay with you long after the headlines fade. #HiddenKillers #BryanKohberger #TrueCrime #ChrisWatts #BTK #JohnList #StephenMcDaniel #RussellWilliams #SusanSmith #TylerHadley #IanHuntley #PsychologyOfMurder #TrueCrimePodcast #MurderCases #BryanKohbergerCostco #Evil #CalmAfterMurder #DatelineStyle #HiddenKillersPodcast #TonyBrueski Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
