In this extended edition of Hidden Killers Live with Tony Brueski, Stacy Cole, and Todd Michaels, we dive deep into two of the most disturbing and talked-about true crime stories unfolding right now.
First, we crack open Chad Daybell’s prison letters — surreal writings from death row where the convicted killer and doomsday cult leader attempts to rebrand himself as a misunderstood prophet, loving husband, and spiritual family man. Through AI technology, Daybell’s letters are read in his own voice, revealing a bizarre mix of nostalgia, music playlists, and denial. We break down what he says, what he leaves out, and how his narcissism bleeds through every line. From bookshelf stories to Whitney Houston “prophecies,” these letters are as chilling as they are absurd.
Then, the show pivots to the breaking news of the Charlie Kirk assassination. Retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke, former chief of the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program, joins us for a hard-hitting discussion. We unpack the profile of the 22-year-old suspect, his seemingly normal Utah upbringing, and how online radicalization, fear, and echo chambers may have played a role. Dreeke explains the lone wolf assassin pattern, why curiosity is key to prevention, and how foreign actors exploit America’s divisions to sow chaos.
This full show captures the insanity of Chad Daybell’s self-delusion and the dangerous climate surrounding political violence in the U.S. It’s equal parts chilling, revealing, and necessary viewing for anyone trying to understand how cult psychology, radicalization, and societal fractures collide in 2025.
