Katlyn Harp Was Missing for 9 Days… Then They Found the Box

When Katlyn Marie Harp missed her daily check-in with her twin sister, something felt off. Nine days later, that feeling turned into a nightmare when her decomposing body was found stuffed in a green metal box—hidden in the woods on land once owned by her husband, Vincent Harp.

In this episode, we break down the chilling murder of Katlyn Harp and how her husband’s lies unraveled under the weight of evidence. From surveillance footage showing him buying gloves to GPS pings placing him exactly where her body would later be found, investigators built a case brick by brick. Vincent Harp said his wife vanished in the night. But cameras caught him loading the box. Cell towers caught him near the dump site. And luminol caught blood on an ATV he tried to sell.

The clincher? Her sister saw the box and recognized it from his truck. Police opened it and found Katlyn’s remains—confirmed by a tattoo.

Vincent Harp is now facing charges for homicide, corpse abuse, and evidence tampering. If convicted, he’ll never see the outside again.

Get the full breakdown of this disturbing case—including how a web of surveillance, digital tracking, and sisterly instinct brought a killer to justice.

Ret FBI Chief Explains Why NO Administration Wants The Epstein List To Get Out

No matter who’s in power, the Epstein list remains locked behind closed doors. Why? In this searing follow-up interview, former FBI Counterintelligence Chief Robin Dreeke returns to explain why no U.S. administration—Democrat or Republican—wants that list to go public.

Tony Brueski and Dreeke unpack the harsh reality behind political self-preservation, institutional loyalty, and the bipartisan fear of what could happen if the full truth were released. Dreeke offers an insider’s view of how administrations weigh risk—not just legal or reputational, but geopolitical. If certain names on Epstein’s flight logs were officially acknowledged, Dreeke suggests, the ripple effect could destabilize trust in public institutions for a generation.

We’re not talking about conspiracy theories here—we’re talking about behavioral patterns, decision-making psychology at the top of federal agencies, and the carefully calibrated avoidance tactics used when inconvenient truths threaten the system. Dreeke explains how redactions, reclassifications, and “plausible oversight” operate as strategic tools—not glitches.

The real kicker? This isn't about protecting victims. It's about protecting the powerful.

If you've ever wondered why justice keeps stalling in the Epstein case, this episode lays out the psychology and institutional motives in chilling clarity.

In this episode, we shift the focus to prevention. If you’re a parent, guardian, teacher—or just someone paying attention—how do you protect the people you love from falling into incel ideology? Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins me to walk through the practical, no-BS steps that can help stop this before it starts.

We talk about early warning signs—not just in behavior, but in language, media consumption, and social withdrawal. We cover the kinds of conversations adults need to be having with kids about rejection, self-worth, and masculinity. Because incel culture doesn’t just appear—it creeps in through TikTok, Reddit, and anonymous forums disguised as support.

Shavaun also explains how to create space for emotional vulnerability, especially in boys, before that vulnerability hardens into anger. We talk about the role schools should play, what healthy masculinity actually looks like, and why emotional literacy might be the most powerful tool we have.

This isn’t just a parenting episode—it’s a survival guide for anyone who wants to understand how radicalization happens quietly, and how we stop it from becoming deadly.

When high-profile cases like Sean “Diddy” Combs end with silence, dismissal, or inaction, the consequences stretch far beyond the defendant. In this compelling episode, Eric Faddis, a seasoned defense attorney and former prosecutor, unpacks how the handling of the Diddy allegations might deter future victims from ever stepping forward.

This isn’t just about one man. It’s about the chilling effect of celebrity-driven justice: the message it sends to survivors, the fear it instills in witnesses, and the public backlash that often greets those who dare to speak up. Faddis digs into how media bias, influencer loyalty, and the normalization of abuse within power structures can create an atmosphere where victims are silenced before they even speak.

Do verdicts like this fuel more silence? Does celebrity status come with an unspoken immunity clause? And is the legal system truly equipped—or even willing—to confront icons with blood on their hands?

If you're looking for honest, intelligent analysis with real-world consequences, this is the conversation you need to hear.

Ret FBI Agent On How To Spot The NEXT 'Bryan Kohberger' Before It's Too Late

Is there a way to spot the next Bryan Kohberger—before they kill?

In this powerful episode, retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer breaks down the psychological and behavioral red flags that could help stop the next lone wolf killer in his tracks. From Kohberger’s emotional detachment and incel ideology to his carefully hidden online footprint, we explore the early signs that were missed—and how society can do better next time.

What does it really look like when someone’s about to snap? What role do parenting, technology, academia, and toxic masculinity play? And how do you know the difference between someone who’s just "awkward"… and someone planning something unspeakable?

This is essential listening for anyone trying to understand how monsters hide in plain sight—and how we can stop them from taking more lives.

Because hindsight doesn't save lives. Awareness does.

Slender Man Stabbing Accomplice Approved for Conditional Release from Mental Hospital After More Than a Decade

A Wisconsin woman who nearly killed a classmate at age 12 in an infamous attack inspired by the fictional character Slender Man will be conditionally released from a psychiatric hospital more than a decade later, a judge ruled Thursday.

Morgan Geyser, now 22, has been confined to the Winnebago Mental Health Institute since she was found not criminally responsible for the 2014 stabbing of her friend, Payton Leutner, in Waukesha, Wisconsin. On Thursday, Waukesha County Circuit Judge Scott Wagner signed off on a new conditional release plan developed by the Department of Health Services. The plan comes after an earlier version was rejected in April over concerns raised by Leutner’s family, including that Geyser’s proposed group home was located just eight miles from Leutner’s residence.

The exact details and timing of Geyser’s release have not been made public for safety and privacy reasons. Her attorney did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

On May 31, 2014, Geyser and her friend Anissa Weier, both 12 at the time, lured Leutner into the woods at David’s Park following a sleepover. There, Geyser stabbed Leutner 19 times with a kitchen knife while Weier encouraged her. One of the stab wounds narrowly missed Leutner’s heart. Severely injured, Leutner managed to crawl to a nearby bike path where a passerby found her and called for help. She miraculously survived the attack after emergency surgery and weeks of recovery.

The motive, according to investigators, was chilling: Geyser and Weier believed that murdering Leutner would please Slender Man, a fictional internet character, and prove themselves worthy to become his “proxies.” They feared that if they didn’t comply, Slender Man would harm their families. After the stabbing, the two girls began walking toward northern Wisconsin, claiming they were trying to find Slender Man’s mansion, which they believed was in the Nicolet National Forest. They were arrested hours later on Interstate 94 in nearby Waukesha County.

In 2017, Geyser pleaded guilty to attempted first-degree intentional homicide as a party to a crime but was found not criminally responsible due to mental illness. In 2018, she was committed to the Winnebago Mental Health Institute for up to 40 years.

Weier also pleaded guilty in 2017 to attempted second-degree intentional homicide with a deadly weapon and was sentenced to 25 years in a mental health facility. She was conditionally released in 2021, agreeing to live with her father and wear a GPS monitor.

Prosecutors and state health officials initially opposed Geyser’s release. In March 2024, they cited concerning behavior, including her reading a novel involving murder and organ trafficking and communicating with a man known to collect “murderabilia.” Geyser reportedly sent him a graphic sketch and a suggestive postcard. However, her defense attorney countered that her reading materials were approved by staff and that her communication with the man had ceased after she learned he was selling items she had sent. The presiding judge at the time, Judge Michael Bohren, concluded she wasn’t concealing anything and allowed the release planning to proceed. Judge Wagner assumed the case after Bohren retired in April.

Widow of Slain Ohio Deputy Sues Alleged Killer’s Family Over Fundraisers

The widow of a retired Ohio sheriff’s deputy has filed a civil lawsuit against the family of the man accused of killing her husband, accusing them of profiting off his alleged crime through online fundraisers.

Rodney Hinton Jr., 38, is currently in the Clermont County Jail, charged with aggravated murder for the May 2, 2024 death of Larry Henderson, a 57-year-old retired Hamilton County Sheriff’s deputy who was working a special duty traffic detail during the University of Cincinnati’s commencement ceremonies.

Authorities say that Hinton deliberately accelerated his silver Ford Focus and struck Henderson from behind while he was directing traffic at the intersection of Jefferson and Corry Streets near the university’s Fifth Third Arena. Surveillance footage reportedly shows Hinton turning around after initially driving past Henderson, circling back, and intentionally aiming the vehicle at the deputy. Henderson was thrown several feet and suffered fatal injuries. He was pronounced dead shortly after being transported to a hospital.

Police say the attack appeared to be motivated by rage and grief, as just one day earlier, Hinton’s 26-year-old son, Ryan Hinton, was shot and killed by Cincinnati police officers during an altercation. According to the Cincinnati Police Department, Ryan Hinton was involved in a domestic violence situation and allegedly charged at officers with a knife before being fatally shot. Body camera footage was shown to Rodney Hinton shortly after the incident, and his defense attorney has since claimed that seeing the video triggered a psychotic break.

Prosecutors, however, allege that Hinton acted with intent, describing the incident as a targeted and deliberate attack on law enforcement. They charged him with aggravated murder, felonious assault, and vehicular homicide. At his arraignment, prosecutors noted the calculated nature of the attack and emphasized that Henderson had no connection to the officer who shot Ryan Hinton.

Following Hinton’s arrest, members of his family created crowdfunding campaigns on platforms including GoFundMe and GiveSendGo to raise money for legal expenses and family support. These fundraisers were met with swift backlash from law enforcement organizations and political officials, who condemned them as an exploitation of a tragic crime. Both platforms ultimately removed the campaigns after public outcry.

On July 14, 2025, Henderson’s widow filed a wrongful death lawsuit in Clermont County Common Pleas Court against Rodney Hinton and several of his family members. The lawsuit, claims that the fundraisers amassed over $100,000 and that the family capitalized on Hinton’s "public status and notoriety gained solely through his criminal act of killing Deputy Henderson."
