In a shocking turn of events, a 76-year-old man stands accused of fatally shooting his wife and daughter following a heated argument in their Pennsylvania home. Roger Hanks was taken into custody Thursday night in East Marlborough Township after police discovered the bodies of his wife, Judith Hanks, 75, and his daughter, Emily Hanks, 37, according to the Chester County District Attorney’s office. The tragic incident unfolded when Roger Hanks was reportedly cleaning his 9mm Smith & Wesson handgun at home around 3 p.m. An argument erupted between Hanks and his wife, Judith, during which she allegedly criticized him for not doing enough around the house and for not eating the food she prepared. Charging documents reveal that tensions escalated, with Roger allegedly pointing the handgun at his wife, threatening to harm her. At one point during the argument, he allegedly told his wife, “If you keep up, this thing is going to go off on you.” As their dispute continued, Roger Hanks allegedly pointed the handgun at her, telling her “if she did not shut and leave him alone he was going to ‘plug’ her.” The situation took a deadly turn when the gun discharged, fatally striking Judith Hanks in the chest. Emily Hanks, witnessing her mother's collapse, reportedly became enraged. Roger Hanks claimed his daughter approached him aggressively, leading him to point the gun at her chest, which resulted in another fatal shot being fired. After the horrific incident, Roger Hanks allegedly confessed to a neighbor, who promptly alerted the authorities. Responding officers took him into custody without further incident. Court records indicate that Roger Hanks has been charged with two counts of first-degree murder and related offenses. Medical personnel arrived at the scene in an attempt to save Judith and Emily Hanks, but tragically, both were pronounced dead. The alleged murderous father then seemingly boasted to police that he was “best of the best” when it came to shooting — adding that he often shoots competitions, according to the outlet. "[Hanks] senselessly shot and killed his family because of a basic dispute," District Attorney Christopher de Barrena-Sarobe said in a press release announcing the charges. "It is unfathomable that anyone would react this way. I want to thank the Pennsylvania State Police who acted quickly and arrested the defendant after being dispatched to the scene." He is currently being held at the Chester County Prison without bail. Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

In a recent episode of "Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski," Tony was joined by retired FBI Special Agent and behavioral analysis expert, Robin Dreeke, to discuss the controversial trial of Karen Read. The conversation focused on the alleged improprieties by law enforcement involved in the case, which have fueled suspicions of a conspiracy. Dreeke emphasized the importance of maintaining public trust in law enforcement agencies through transparency and accountability. He criticized the handling of the investigation, particularly the decision to allow the same agency that may be implicated in the misconduct to lead the investigation. Dreeke argued that such actions undermine trust in the justice system and complicate the pursuit of truth in the case. The discussion also touched on the challenges organizations face when admitting errors, the impact of these challenges on public perception, and the difficulty in changing course once an official narrative has been established. Main Points: - Robin Dreeke discussed the critical role of trust and transparency in law enforcement, particularly in high-stakes cases like that of Karen Read. - The conversation highlighted concerns about law enforcement improprieties, such as inappropriate searches of Read's phone, which suggest a potential cover-up. - Dreeke criticized the decision to not assign an independent agency to investigate, which he believes compromised the integrity of the investigation. - He discussed the psychological and organizational challenges that prevent institutions from admitting mistakes and correcting course. - Dreeke expressed skepticism about conspiracy theories but acknowledged that poor decisions and lack of transparency can lead to public mistrust and speculation. #RobinDreeke #TonyBrueski #KarenRead #HiddenKillersPodcast #LawEnforcementTransparency #TrustInJustice #ConspiracyTheory Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

In this episode, Bob Motta discusses the ongoing trial of Karen Read, highlighting potential issues of impropriety and conflict of interest involving state police detective Michael Proctor. Motta points out that Proctor, who has close ties with the Albert family involved in the case, might have shown bias in his investigation. The defense suggests that evidence like taillight fragments were conveniently found only after significant delay and Proctor's involvement, raising suspicions of evidence manipulation. The conversation also delves into the complexities of coordinating a conspiracy, arguing that it's highly unlikely for a large group to maintain a consistent false narrative, especially under scrutiny. The focus shifts to discussing the possibility of accidental involvement by Karen Read, considering her mental state and hysterical reactions at the scene.

In the podcast 'Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski', Tony discusses the trial of Karen Read, focusing on her controversial statement, "I hit him," at the scene. The episode features psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott, who provides insights into the reliability of such statements made under distress. The discussion revolves around the confusion at the crime scene, with conflicting accounts from first responders and the influence of alcohol, which may have led Karen to be in a blackout state. The podcast examines the challenges of interpreting statements made by individuals in high-stress situations, particularly when influenced by substances, raising questions about the actual events and Karen’s culpability. Main Points: - **Conflicting Testimonies:** First responders provided varying accounts of Karen's statements at the scene, complicating the understanding of her involvement. - **Impact of Alcohol:** Shavaun Scott highlights that Karen's possible blackout state due to alcohol consumption could distort her awareness and reliability of her own statements. - **Challenges in Crisis Interpretation:** The episode discusses how the chaotic nature of the scene and the time elapsed since the incident can affect the accuracy of witnesses' memories and interpretations. - **Expression of Guilt:** Karen's repeated statements, perceived as admissions of guilt, are scrutinized for their sincerity and accuracy given her mental and emotional state. #HiddenKillersWithTonyBrueski #ShavaunScott #KarenRead #TrialCoverage #Psychotherapy #LegalAnalysis #CrimeSceneInvestigation Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

In the recent episode of 'Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski', former prosecutor Eric Faddis discussed controversial aspects of Karen Read's trial, particularly focusing on misconduct by law enforcement. Key issues include a state trooper accused of searching for nude photos of Read on her phone and possibly threatening her, which feeds into the defense's narrative of a conspiracy against her. Additionally, there was debate around a statement made by Read at the crime scene, which was initially taken as a confession but later contested due to possible mishearing by a paramedic. The conversation also touched on digital evidence from Read's phone, showing her speeding away from the scene, which could be interpreted in multiple ways. Faddis highlighted the broader implications of such behavior by law enforcement, questioning whether it reflects a systemic issue within the department. Main Points: - A state trooper allegedly searched for nude photos on Karen Read's phone and sent threatening texts, potentially undermining the prosecution's case. - The defense claims there's a conspiracy against Read, bolstered by evidence of inappropriate behavior by law enforcement. - Read's alleged crime scene confession ("I hit him") is now questionable, with conflicting testimonies about what was actually said. - Digital evidence from Read's phone shows her speeding away, which the defense argues could indicate she was fleeing from a conflict. - The episode explores whether unethical behavior by one officer indicates a wider issue within the police department. #KarenRead #TonyBrueski #EricFaddis #HiddenKillersPodcast #LawEnforcementMisconduct #TrialControversy #DigitalEvidence Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

In this episode of "Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski," Tony and Jennifer Coffindaffer discuss the ongoing trial of Chad Daybell, highlighting key testimonies and insights into the case. They focus particularly on the testimony of Chad's mother regarding her first meeting with Lori Vallow at a Texas Roadhouse, shortly after the death of Chad's previous wife, Tammy. The conversation reveals how Chad and Lori used religious justifications and manipulated close family members to mask their alleged criminal activities. The testimony from Chad's mother, considered highly credible, proves crucial in establishing a timeline that contradicts the couple’s public narrative, suggesting that they were honest with some individuals about their actions while deceiving others. Main Points: - **Surprising Testimony from Chad's Mother:** Chad's mom was shocked to learn of his sudden marriage to Lori, a month after Tammy's death, highlighting the deceitful speed of their union. - **Lori's Deceptive Statements:** Lori misled Chad's parents about her marital history and the status of her children, falsely claiming her daughter was deceased. - **Manipulation of Religious Beliefs:** Chad and Lori leveraged religious narratives to justify their actions and gain trust within their community. - **Credibility of Witnesses:** The testimony of Chad’s mother is seen as damning due to her proximity and relationship to Chad, adding significant weight to the prosecution's case. - **Public vs. Private Truths:** The episode discusses how Chad and Lori presented different truths to different people, complicating the community's ability to uncover their crimes. - **Community's Trust:** Chad's established reputation within the community might have delayed suspicion and investigation into Tammy’s unusual death. #HiddenKillersWithTonyBrueski #JenniferCoffindaffer #ChadDaybell #LoriVallow #TexasRoadhouseMeeting #ReligiousDeception #TammyDaybellMurder Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

In an emotionally charged day 19 of the Chad Daybell murder trial, the courtroom was presented with harrowing details of JJ Vallow's autopsy, which painted a grim picture of the young boy's last moments. Dr. Garth Warren, the medical examiner, provided testimony that left many in the courtroom, including members of the jury, visibly distressed. Dr. Warren's testimony focused on the cause of JJ's death, which he confirmed as asphyxia caused by a plastic bag secured over the head and duct tape covering the mouth. "The abrasions could have been from someone putting the bag over JJ’s head or JJ trying to get the bag off his head," Dr. Warren explained, suggesting a desperate struggle. Throughout the morning, jurors were shown a series of unsettling photos detailing the condition of JJ's body when found. These included images of his bound wrists and ankles with duct tape, bruises and scratch-like abrasions on his arms, neck, and ears, and his face after the removal of the duct tape. The photos showed significant signs of physical struggle and restraint, contributing to a somber atmosphere in the courtroom. The impact of these graphic depictions was palpable among the jury. Several jurors were seen crying, and others looked away from the disturbing images, reflecting the heavy emotional toll of the case. The meticulous detail with which Dr. Warren described the injuries underscored the brutal nature of JJ's death. Chad Daybell, the accused, remained stoned-faced, occasionally shaking his head as the photographs were displayed on the monitor at his table. The courtroom setting was tense, with the prosecution methodically presenting evidence linking Daybell to the alleged crimes against JJ and his sister, Tylee Ryan, whose remains were also discussed. In a revealing session on day 19 of the Lori Vallow trial, Chandler Police Detective Ariel Werther took the stand to dissect the intricate web of cell phone data and movements on the day Charles Vallow was fatally shot. The courtroom, filled with key family members including Lori's uncle and Charles's relatives, was presented with a minute-by-minute breakdown of the events leading to the tragedy. Later in the day, using advanced data analysis tools, Detective Werther laid out a timeline that meticulously tracked the locations and communications between Lori Vallow, her brother Alex Cox, and Chad Daybell. At the heart of the testimony was a series of early morning phone calls and texts that painted a detailed picture of the hours before and after Charles Vallow's death. At 7:33 a.m., just hours before the fatal incident, Charles’s device, which was later found with Lori, sent a text message to her phone. By 7:52 a.m., Lori was actively communicating with Alex Cox. These communications continued right up until the 911 call was made at 8:36 a.m., highlighting a crucial window that raised questions about the sequence of events that morning. The jury was shown animations based on GPS data that tracked Lori's movements, including stops at a Burger King and Walgreens, where she was seen purchasing flip-flops — mundane details that took on sinister overtones given the context of the day’s events. “The data does not lie,” Werther stated, as he presented slides that showed the geographical positions of the involved parties' cell phones. These positions corroborated the prosecution's timeline, which suggests that Lori had possession of Charles’s phone during key moments of the morning. This forensic presentation was not just a technical showcase but also a narrative device, linking digital traces to human actions. The detailed mapping of phone calls and locations helped illustrate a premeditated sequence of events, according to the prosecution. As family members looked on, the weight of the digital evidence was palpable. The detailed cell phone records not only traced Lori's steps but also seemed to isolate her actions in relation to the timing of her husband's...

Day 7 of the Karen Read murder trial brought pivotal new evidence and witness testimonies, casting light on the hours leading up to the tragic death of Boston Police Officer John O'Keefe, whose body was found in a snowbank in Canton, Massachusetts. In a courtroom crowded with media and local residents, surveillance footage from CF McCarthy’s bar was presented, showing Read and O'Keefe in a seemingly affectionate embrace, mere hours before the fatal incident. This footage contradicts the portrayal of their relationship as troubled in the lead-up to O'Keefe's death. Witness testimonies painted a picture of the couple's last known hours. Canton Police Lt. Charles Rae and residents like Nicholas Kolokithas, along with his wife Karina, provided accounts of the couple's behavior. “They were very loving toward each other,” Karina Kolokithas testified, noting an incident where her husband was playfully chastised for not being as affectionate as O'Keefe. The narrative continued with descriptions of the group's movement from the bar to a gathering at 34 Fairview Avenue, the home of Brian Albert. Surveillance footage from the bar and subsequent events at Albert’s home were scrutinized, highlighting the interactions within the group and the couple's last public moments together. Drama escalated with the testimony of Katherine Camerano, who recounted a frantic early morning call from Read. “She just kept saying, ‘Where’s Mike?’” Camerano recalled, before revealing that she later received a chilling text from Read stating, “He’s dead. He’s in the snow.” The court also viewed a dashcam video showing Read's Lexus SUV in O'Keefe’s driveway shortly after his body was discovered, further complicating the timeline of events. Additional footage from a Ring video camera captured the moment police conducted a well-being check at O'Keefe's home, responding to concerns about his whereabouts. As the trial progresses, the collection of digital evidence and firsthand accounts continue to build a complex picture of the night O'Keefe died. The jury, tasked with piecing together these snippets of their last hours, faces the challenging task of determining the truth behind the tragic event that led to O'Keefe's untimely death. The community and observers nationwide remain gripped by the unfolding narrative, awaiting further revelations as more witnesses are set to take the stand in the coming days.

In the continuous coverage of the Chad Daybell trial, both "The Hidden Killers Podcast" and "True Crime Today" delve into the significant aspects and developments of the case, bringing to light the allegations and evidence that have captivated true crime audiences. The case involves Chad Daybell and Lori Vallow Daybell, who are accused of a series of grave crimes, including murder, conspiracy, and grand theft, related to the deaths of Lori's two children, JJ Vallow and Tylee Ryan, and Chad's previous wife, Tammy Daybell. Key points highlighted in their coverage would likely examine the intricate web of beliefs held by the Daybells, including apocalyptic visions and claims of dealing with "zombies" or dark spirits, which prosecutors argue motivated the alleged crimes. The trial has unveiled a complex narrative featuring evidence ranging from suspicious deaths followed by quick remarriages to the discovery of the children's remains in Chad Daybell's property. This evidence is crucial to understanding the prosecution's case, which posits that the Daybell’s extreme beliefs led them to commit these acts to fulfill their doomsday prophesies. Moreover, the coverage would touch upon the legal proceedings, including the charges against the couple, the defense's counterarguments, and the emotional testimonies from friends and family members. These elements combine to provide a comprehensive view of a case that is as perplexing as it is tragic, shedding light on the actions and motivations of Chad and Lori Daybell amidst a tale of manipulation, religion, and murder.
