    Donna Adelson Appeals Her Life Sentence, Defense Expert Eric Faddis on What Happens Next

    Convicted of masterminding the murder of her former son-in-law Dan Markel, Donna Adelson is now fighting for her life — again. Her motion for a new trial has been denied, and her defense team is preparing to appeal the 2025 verdict that sent the 75-year-old matriarch to Florida’s state prison for life. But what does an appeal like this really look like? Can it work — or is this just a ritual step on the road to nowhere? Attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis joins Tony Brueski and Stacy Cole on Hidden Killers Live to cut through the noise and map the real legal landscape ahead. From claims of juror misconduct and media bias to the ever-controversial wiretaps and family communications at the heart of the prosecution, we explore every possible angle that Donna’s lawyers might raise. And we ask the hard questions: Did Harvey Adelson’s angry courtroom speech hurt her case? Could Wendi Adelson still face charges? And what happens if Charlie’s own appeal succeeds before hers? It’s a story of money, power, and family — but also one about how our appeals system balances finality and fairness. Faddis takes us inside the strategy, the statistics, and the staggering odds of overturning a Florida murder conviction. Because in the end, Donna Adelson’s fight isn’t just about freedom — it’s about legacy, and whether justice has the courage to look back. #HiddenKillers #DonnaAdelson #DanMarkel #EricFaddis #TrueCrime #LegalAppeal #FloridaJustice #TonyBrueski #FamilyCrime #LawAndCrime Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

    FBI Seizes Diddy’s “Freak-Off” Tapes in Devastating Forfeiture Order

    After receiving a four-year prison sentence in October 2025, Sean “Diddy” Combs now faces an even more devastating blow: the loss of control. A federal forfeiture order has handed over every piece of digital media tied to his sex trafficking conviction to the FBI—tapes, hard drives, phones, and cameras. What once served as private leverage has now become state-owned evidence. In this breakdown, we dig deep into what civil forfeiture really means—how it works, why the Mann Act was used, and how the government can seize even “consensual” material if it facilitated a crime. We explore the eerie symbolism of the government now owning Diddy’s unfiltered archive—the raw footage of a life built on secrecy and control. From Shkreli’s Wu-Tang album to Madoff’s mansions, this is how power unravels: not in a courtroom, but in an auction house, an evidence vault, and in headlines that strip away brand and leave behind only case numbers.  #DiddyTrial #CivilForfeiture #FreakOffTapes #MannAct #FBIInvestigation #JusticeSystem #DiddySentencing #HiddenKillers #AssetSeizure #CelebrityCrime Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

    Inside the Greenberg Cover-Up Claims, Attorney Eric Faddis Legal Breakdown

    More than 14 years after Ellen Greenberg was found dead in her Philadelphia apartment, the controversy has only grown louder. This year, Chief Medical Examiner Dr. Lindsay Simon re-affirmed the 2011 ruling of suicide — despite twenty stab wounds, including injuries to the back of the neck and skull. But the original pathologist, Dr. Marlon Osbourne, has now recanted his own finding, publicly declaring that he no longer believes Ellen took her own life. That one sworn statement has shaken a city and reignited a decade of distrust in its institutions. Today on Hidden Killers Live, defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis joins Tony Brueski and Stacy Cole to analyze what this new 2025 report really means — and what legal options the Greenberg family has left. Can a case like this ever be reopened after a settlement? What happens when a medical examiner reverses their opinion years later? And why does the system seem to fight so hard to protect its own narrative — even when the evidence screams otherwise? We dig into the forensics, the law, and the psychology of institutional loyalty. This isn’t just a whodunit — it’s a how-did-they-get-away-with-it story that every citizen should be watching. Because if Ellen Greenberg can die this way and still be called a suicide, what does that say about our justice system and those who swear to uphold it? #HiddenKillers #EllenGreenberg #EricFaddis #TrueCrime #JusticeForEllen #ForensicScience #MedicalExaminer #LegalAnalysis #TonyBrueski #CrimeInvestigation Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

    Bryan Kohberger: No Trial, No Testimony—So Where’s Lifetime Getting Their Script?

    Before the families could speak, Hollywood did. In a stunning October 2025 announcement, Lifetime confirmed that actor Miles Merry will play Bryan Kohberger in an upcoming dramatization of the Idaho student murders. The film, part of the network’s long-running “Ripped From the Headlines” series, is already deep in pre-production — casting finalized, production crew set, and a release date likely locked. But the families of the victims? They were never asked. Never consulted. Never warned. This is Lifetime’s formula: turn tragedy into prime-time content. They did it with Amanda Knox, Gabby Petito, and Chris Watts — all criticized for exploiting real people’s pain. But the Kohberger case stands apart. There was no trial, no testimony, no motive revealed under oath. Kohberger pled guilty in July 2025, receiving four consecutive life sentences without parole. The record is silent — and into that silence, Lifetime will now write fiction. That’s what makes this story so unsettling. Without verified facts, screenwriters must invent them: imagined conflicts, fictional flashbacks, emotional arcs, and even dialogue for the killer himself. None of it comes from evidence or sworn testimony — yet millions will watch and remember those scenes as if they were true. Alivea Goncalves, sister of victim Kaylee Goncalves, called it “really angering.” The families weren’t informed. They learned from the headlines. To them, the victims are not characters, and their grief is not a plotline. This isn’t about one network being evil — it’s about the moral cost of entertainment that blurs the line between truth and storytelling. Because when a true crime story gets rewritten for television, it doesn’t just distort memory — it replaces it. #BryanKohberger #IdahoMurders #LifetimeMovie #TrueCrimeNews #KayleeGoncalves #XanaKernodle #MadisonMogen #EthanChapin #TrueCrimeCommunity #JusticeForTheVictims Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

  7. Ellen Greenberg & Donna Adelson, Attorney Eric Faddis Expert Legal Breakdown

    Ellen Greenberg & Donna Adelson, Attorney Eric Faddis Expert Legal Breakdown

    Two cases. Two women. Two very different ends of the justice system — and both asking the same question: how does this happen? In Philadelphia, Ellen Greenberg was found dead with twenty stab wounds, yet her death is still officially classified as a suicide. In Florida, Donna Adelson sits in a state prison for orchestrating her former son-in-law’s murder, preparing to appeal a conviction that rocked her family to its core. Both cases raise a larger truth: the law doesn’t always get it right — and when it does get it wrong, it rarely admits it. Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis joins Tony Brueski and Stacy Cole on Hidden Killers Live to unpack the legal and moral threads tying these two stories together. From medical examiner recantations and conflicted expert testimony to the complex machinery of appeals, we look at how American justice sometimes closes ranks instead of cases. What does it mean when a city won’t reverse a death ruling everyone questions? What does it say when a wealthy Florida family can still fight the system for years after a life sentence? And why do so many families — from Greenberg to Markel — feel like they’re fighting not for justice, but against it? This double feature dives into the fault lines of law, power, and truth. Because when systems protect themselves more than the people they serve, everyone should be asking — what does justice even mean anymore? #HiddenKillers #EllenGreenberg #DonnaAdelson #EricFaddis #TrueCrime #JusticeSystem #LegalAnalysis #TonyBrueski #DanMarkel #CrimeCommentary Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

    The Menendez Brothers Were THIS Close to Freedom. Here’s Why They Lost It

    They were once the most infamous brothers in America—then, almost forgotten. But in 2025, Lyle and Erik Menendez got a shot at parole for the first time in over three decades. The hearings were long. Emotional. Raw. And ultimately—for both—denied. In this detailed breakdown, we walk through why that door to freedom slammed shut again. From their extensive prison disciplinary records to the parole board’s searing observation—“You’re not here because of what you did in 1989. You’re here because of what you’ve done in prison.”—we explore how institutional behavior, not just past crimes, sealed their fate. This isn’t a retread of the old headlines. It’s a hard look at the modern justice system, trauma arguments, evolving parole standards, and the reality of serving life in California’s prison system post-youth offender law reform. Whether you believe they deserve release or not—this is the most in-depth look at how the Menendez brothers came the closest they’ve ever been to freedom… and why it still wasn’t enough. #MenendezBrothers #TrueCrime #ParoleDenied #2025Hearing #ErikMenendez #LyleMenendez #YouthOffenderLaw #CaliforniaPrison #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimeUpdate Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
