Sean “Diddy” Combs, once the self-crowned king of luxury, has apparently been reduced to the lowest form of intoxication known to man: prison hooch.
Reports claim the former mogul was caught with homemade alcohol inside Fort Dix Federal Correctional Institution — the kind of foul, bubbling concoction inmates brew in trash bags using fruit, sugar, and desperation.

Forget Cîroc. Forget top-shelf anything. What Diddy...

When nine-year-old Melodee Buzzard vanished in early October, few could have predicted how fast her mother’s behavior would spiral. Now, new court documents and witness statements reveal a terrifying encounter — one that prosecutors call false imprisonment by violence, menace, fraud, and deceit.
According to the sworn statement of Tyler Brewer, a legal document assistant and mandated reporter, he went to meet Ashlee Buzzar...

A rape. A strangulation.
Video evidence. Multiple felony counts.
And an 18-year-old who should’ve faced decades in prison — but didn’t.

In Payne County, Oklahoma, Jesse Butler pleaded no contest to multiple violent felonies: rape, attempted rape, assault by strangulation, and rape by instrumentation.
Each count carried heavy time — up to 78 years combined.
But thanks to a stunning plea deal, Butler wal...

When police arrested Bryan Kohberger — the criminology Ph.D. student accused of murdering four University of Idaho students — they found a single book with underlining on page 118.

Months later, reporting from the Idaho Statesman revealed that book was Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway by Susan Jeffers — a self-help classic about conquering fear through action.

In this episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski...

A mother under arrest.
A daughter still missing.
And an investigation that keeps stretching across states and logic alike.

On Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, we break down the case of 9-year-old Melodee Buzzard, missing since early October 2025.
Her mother, Ashlee Buzzard, was arrested November 7 in Santa Barbara County on a felony false-imprisonment charge with $100,000 bail.

In this extended episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, we go deep into the quietest chapter yet in the saga of the Adelson family: the appeals.

On November 4, 2025, Donna Adelson filed her notice of appeal with Florida’s First District Court of Appeal — one day before her son Charlie filed his reply brief in his own appeal. It marks the moment both mother and son officially stepped into the long, lonely process...

Two headlines.
Two tragedies.
And one justice system collapsing under its own contradictions.

In California and Oklahoma — two stories this week reveal the same ugly truth: justice is selective.
One mother sits in jail while her missing daughter remains unaccounted for.
Another man, accused of horrific violence, walks free.

First: The Melodee Buzzard case.
Nine-year-old Melodee vanished in...

“She lied about everything.”
 That’s what former Massachusetts Deputy Police Chief Robert Devine told the state’s oversight commission when he was asked about Sandra Birchmore — a 23-year-old woman found dead in her Canton, Massachusetts apartment in 2021.

But behind that phrase lies one of the most disturbing stories of police corruption, grooming, and betrayal in modern American law enforcement.

In one of the most chilling post-verdict revelations yet, we’re hearing directly from the woman Donna Adelson once called her “jailhouse daughter.”

Her name is Dina Burnernhard, and according to her testimony and a new interview with Surviving the Survivor, she spent five months locked up alongside Donna in the Leon County Jail. What she witnessed behind those walls is nothing like the frail, weeping grandmother the w...

The real story isn’t just that the Epstein investigation was shut down — it’s how it was shut down. And why everyone inside stayed quiet.
Former FBI Behavioral Program Chief Robin Dreeke joins me for an unflinching look at the inner workings of institutional obedience — the invisible forces that make people protect power instead of truth.

Through a behavioral lens, Robin breaks down how fear travels through a bure...

Justice doesn’t end at sentencing — and in the Bryan Kohberger case, it just got even darker.

In this episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, we break down the latest courtroom development in the Idaho student-murder case. More than three years after the 2022 killings and just months after Kohberger’s guilty plea and life sentences, the court was back in session — this time to fight over restitution.

When a system built to uncover truth suddenly goes dark, you have to ask: what are they protecting — and from whom?
In this episode of Hidden Killers, former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke takes us inside the psychology of institutional cover-ups. From decades in counterintelligence and behavioral analysis, he’s seen how fear, ambition, and loyalty can twist good people into silent accomplices.

In May 2020, on Mother’s Day, Suzanne Morphew disappeared after leaving for a bike ride near her Salida, Colorado home. Her husband, Barry Morphew, told investigators she never returned — but beneath the surface was a story of secrets, tangled relationships and a forensic trail that would span years.

The first murder charges against Barry were filed in 2021 — then dismissed in 2022 amid prosecutorial misconduct and in...

    What happens when two teenage survivors watch the court set their attacker free?

    In the case of Jesse Mack Butler, charged with eleven felonies — including rape, strangulation, and assault — the answer is unthinkable: one year of supervision, zero prison time, and a wiped record.
