Descripción

Every red flag in the Celeste Rivas Hernandez case got logged by somebody, and not one of them connected the dots in time. Tony Brueski breaks down the full D4vd case for True Crime Today, starting with a welfare check that should have ended very differently.  Celeste was reported missing from Lake Elsinore three times in early 2024. That led Riverside County deputies to musician David Burke's phone number, and LA County deputies to his West Hollywood front door. Burke showed them a yearbook photo and claimed he'd met her only once. Deputies told him plainly that she was thirteen and a runaway, then left without further action.  Prosecutors allege what came next was deliberate. Burke is accused of paying one of Celeste's junior high classmates a thousand dollars to hand her a new phone so contact could continue uninterrupted. Over the following year, prosecutors say she traveled with him to Las Vegas, London, and Texas, met his family, got matching tattoos, and had his name on her ring finger, all while still in seventh grade.  The case takes an even stranger turn when you look at Burke's own music. His breakout single, the album it's from, and the alter ego he built around both all echo the allegations prosecutors are now making about a Hollywood Hills home. Seven months passed between investigators finding Celeste's remains and Burke's arrest, a stretch that included three grand jury panels, a friend fleeing to Montana to avoid a subpoena, and Burke's family fighting the grand jury in a Texas courtroom.  He now faces first-degree murder with special circumstances, including lying in wait, murder for financial gain, and murder of a witness. That financial gain allegation is the piece prosecutors say ties everything back to Burke's career.  Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ [https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/]  Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Did Lindsay Clancy's Doctors Cause Her Children's Deaths?

Lindsay Clancy told her doctors she was having thoughts of harming her children. They prescribed more medication. Her husband begged them to stop. They increased the dosage. Three children are dead, and the only person sitting at a defendant’s table is the mother who tried to get help. Clancy faces three counts of first-degree murder for the January 2023 deaths of five-year-old Cora, three-year-old Dawson, and eight-month-old Callan in Duxbury, Massachusetts. She is pleading not guilty by reason of insanity, arguing she was experiencing postpartum psychosis driven by command hallucinations and a catastrophic failure of medical care. According to two civil lawsuits — one filed by Lindsay, one by her husband Patrick — Lindsay was prescribed at least ten psychiatric medications in four months by providers who never coordinated her treatment or arrived at a correct diagnosis. She was a labor and delivery nurse at Massachusetts General Hospital who understood something was wrong and fought to get help. She voluntarily hospitalized herself three times. She called a crisis hotline and was turned away because she didn’t have a specific plan. Patrick Clancy, the father of all three children, filed a wrongful death suit against her healthcare providers. He is testifying for the defense at her murder trial. He has publicly blamed the medical system — not his wife — for what happened. The prosecution argues Lindsay was lucid and planned the killings. Their key evidence of her mental state: a hospital assessment that ruled out bipolar disorder. Two lawsuits and a forensic psychiatric evaluation allege that assessment was wrong. The diagnosis she needed — Bipolar Disorder I with psychosis and postpartum onset — came after her children were already gone. Jury selection begins July 20 in Plymouth Superior Court.

Why Lindsay Clancy Needed Her Husband Gone for Fifty-Four Minutes

Lindsay Clancy's murder trial begins in days. Jury selection opens July 20 in Plymouth. She is charged with ending the lives of all three of her children during a fifty-four-minute window while her husband was picking up takeout she asked him to get. Prosecutors say she checked Apple Maps to time the drive. The defense says she was drowning. Nine medications prescribed across dozens of appointments — eight of those medications added in a single three-week stretch. Virtual psychiatric visits that lasted seventeen minutes. A hospital that evaluated her, concluded she was overmedicated and misdiagnosed, and discharged her anyway. Her attorney offered to formally admit she was responsible for all three deaths if the judge would let the jury consider guilt and sanity separately. The judge declined. The judge also blocked fifteen women who wanted to testify about their own postpartum psychosis — women who had experienced command hallucinations like the ones Lindsay described. The court ruled medical experts are sufficient. The defense lost the most emotionally powerful testimony it had. Jennifer Coffindaffer, retired FBI Special Agent, sits down with Tony and Robin to dissect the case heading to trial. She addresses whether the Apple Maps evidence is as damning as the prosecution believes, how a jury handles hearing a confession and an insanity defense in the same breath, and what happens when Patrick Clancy — the father who forgave — takes the stand and tells the jury his wife got sick. Lindsay Clancy is paralyzed. She's in a wheelchair. The doctors who prescribed her nine medications are named in two civil lawsuits — but not a single one of them is sitting at a defendant's table.

What Joseph Duggar Told The World About His Brother

There is a tape almost nobody has gone back and watched, and it is the most important thing in the Joseph Duggar case. December of 2015. Joseph Duggar, twenty years old, sitting in front of a TLC camera talking about Josh. He does not hedge. He describes a man living a secret life. He describes how you would never guess it was the person standing up preaching about being true to your wife. He says it broke his heart. In March of 2026, Joseph Duggar was arrested. According to the Bay County, Florida arrest affidavit, he asked a nine-year-old girl to sit on his lap during a 2020 family vacation in Panama City Beach. He has pleaded not guilty. Tony Brueski takes the question true crime listeners have been fighting about since the arrest — Joseph or Josh, which one is worse — and gives a real answer instead of a shrug. Getting there means going back to July of 2003, sixteen months after Josh Duggar first confessed, and looking hard at the man Jim Bob Duggar chose to handle it. It means looking at the teaching this family was raised on, which framed going outside the chain of command as the dangerous move. It means watching what happened to two Duggar daughters on Fox News in June of 2015. And it means reading two statements. One from the Duggars. One from Kendra's parents, the Caldwells, who lost a house over it. Joseph Duggar's Florida case was continued on July 14, 2026. Next court date is September 15.

Siders' 16 Kids: What the DNA Testing Is About to Show

When Ohio's Attorney General described the Siders case as "intrafamily," most of the coverage moved past the word. It shouldn't have. That term — used before DNA testing was complete — signals something the child endangerment charges don't capture. Sixteen children found in a twelve-by-twelve room in Hamden, Ohio. Some nonverbal. One critical. Elizabeth Siders was fifteen when she married Gary Jr. and reportedly thirteen when her first child was born. All sixteen children were delivered at hospitals. Truancy complaints filed in 2021 were never served. No CPS intervention. No school enrollment. No medical records beyond delivery. Jennifer Coffindaffer, retired FBI Special Agent, sits down with Tony and Robin to unpack what the DNA testing could confirm, whether Elizabeth Siders is a co-defendant or someone who was trapped in an environment she entered as a child, and what the gag order — filed by one defendant's attorney but applied to every official in the case — is actually designed to protect. Coffindaffer also addresses whether additional charges are coming, who the primary architect of this situation really was, and why a family that collected state benefits while keeping sixteen children invisible to every system managed to do it for eighteen years without a single intervention. Nobody is saying it on the record anymore. The gag order made sure of that. Coffindaffer says what they can't.

Nolan Wells' Boat Crew Told Investigators THIS

Nolan Wells was supposed to come home from Horn Island after the Fourth of July. His friends left. He stayed. Two days later, a park ranger found him in the water — and the story the group told investigators started falling apart almost immediately. Multiple friends from the boat trip have given conflicting accounts of what happened on the island. The family says Nolan's Snapchat data was erased after his death. The FBI is conducting forensic analysis on his phone, and death threats tied to the case are under separate investigation. Attorney Ben Crump retained by the family says the case will go to a grand jury. Jennifer Coffindaffer, retired FBI Special Agent, joins Tony Brueski and Robin Dreeke to examine the investigation's biggest vulnerability: the people closest to Nolan Wells cannot agree on what happened. Coffindaffer assesses whether the Snapchat allegation holds investigative weight, what the FBI's role actually is when jurisdiction belongs to the local sheriff despite the island being federal land, and why the public's rush to assign motive — racial or otherwise — may be obscuring what the evidence actually shows. Over sixty witnesses have been interviewed. Two autopsies are pending — one from the state, one independent. And the friends who were on that boat with Nolan Wells have yet to tell a version of events that everyone agrees on. Somebody knows what happened. The question is whether anybody is willing to say it out loud.
