September 8, 2019. Yellowstone National Park. The last known photo of Tylee Ryan.According to investigators, she was dead within twenty-four hours. Her remains were found nine months later in Chad Daybell's backyard.This is Part 3 of "The Chosen Ones" — our deep dive into the psychology of spiritual abuse and religious trauma through the Daybell case. Today we examine Chad Daybell's "zombie" doctrine in detail: how it worked, who it targeted, and how it justified the murders of Tylee, JJ, Tammy, and Charles.According to trial testimony: Chad Daybell taught that demons could possess people after death Once possessed, the original person was gone — only a "zombie" remained Zombies couldn't be saved or cast out — they could only be destroyed Chad Daybell assigned "light and dark ratings" to categorize who was possessed Everyone rated "dark" ended up dead We trace how each victim was labeled: Charles Vallow: renamed "Ned," killed by Alex Cox Tammy Daybell: declared possessed, asphyxiated in her sleep Tylee Ryan: called "dark" after questioning her mother, dismembered and burned JJ Vallow: declared a "zombie," wrapped in plastic and buried This episode provides essential context for understanding how Chad Daybell's belief system enabled the murders — and why dehumanization is central to spiritual abuse in high control religion.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

October 2018. A "Preparing a People" conference in Utah. Chad Daybell walks up to Lori Vallow and tells her they were married in a past life.This is the moment everything changed.Part 1 of "The Chosen Ones" examines how Chad Daybell used spiritual love bombing to transform Lori from a devoted LDS mother into someone who believed she was "a god assigned to carry out the work of the 144,000."We break down the mechanics of spiritual abuse:First, he made her feel seen. Chad Daybell told her she was special, chosen, set apart. He said he could recognize her spiritual significance when no one else could.Then, he made her feel exempt. According to testimony, Lori would say "It doesn't count for me" when doing things that would normally require repentance. Chad Daybell had convinced her the rules didn't apply to someone at her level.Then came the labels. Charles wasn't her husband anymore — he was a demon named "Ned." The children weren't her children — they were "zombies" possessed by dark spirits.This episode traces the path from that first conference to Charles Vallow's death in July 2019. We examine the AVOW community, the fringe LDS conference circuit, and the belief system Chad Daybell built that would eventually justify murder.If you're following the Daybell case — or if you've experienced religious trauma yourself — this episode provides essential psychological context.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Three women. Three abductions. Same beliefs. Same geography. Same church.Elleshia Seymour is now in Croatian custody after allegedly fleeing Utah with her four children because she believed the apocalypse was coming. She left behind a to-do list instructing herself to shred documents and buy a burner phone. She left a note she described as a "message from God." And she left a secret TikTok account filled with videos warning that Salt Lake City would be destroyed and COVID vaccines were turning people into zombies.Her children — ages 11, 8, 7, and 3 — are now trapped in a state-run orphanage in Dubrovnik. Their father is there. He can see them two hours a day. The three-year-old doesn't understand why he can't go home.This case would be disturbing enough on its own. But Elleshia Seymour isn't an anomaly. She's a pattern.Lori Vallow believed the same things. Her children J.J. and Tylee were murdered — their bodies found in her boyfriend Chad Daybell's backyard. Spring Thibaudeau believed the same things. She fled toward Canada with her teenage son before the FBI caught her.All three women came from LDS backgrounds. All three developed apocalyptic beliefs centered on the same theology — the same "end times" doctrine the Church teaches as mainstream. All three left children traumatized or dead.The LDS Church is worth an estimated $265 billion. It was fined by the SEC for hiding its wealth. It excommunicated Chad Daybell — but only after the murders. It excommunicated Julie Rowe — but only after years of influence.This is the story of a radicalization pipeline that keeps producing victims — and an institution that keeps looking the other way.#ElleshiaSeymour #LoriVallow #ChadDaybell #MormonDoomsday #LDSChurch #DoomsdayMom #TrueCrime #CroatiaAbduction #ChildAbduction #ReligiousExtremismJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

As part of our Hidden Killers 2025 Year in Review series, we revisit the opening week of one of the most sensational murder trials in America — the Arizona case of Lori Vallow Daybell, the self-proclaimed “Doomsday Mom” now defending herself against charges of conspiracy to murder her fourth husband, Charles Vallow.In this two-part breakdown, Tony Brueski teams up with former prosecutor and defense attorney Eric Faddis and retired FBI Behavioral Analysis Chief Robin Dreeke to unpack the chaotic courtroom drama, bizarre legal strategy, and psychological meltdown that have turned this trial into both a legal cautionary tale and a study in delusional self-belief.In part one, Tony and Eric dissect the prosecution’s sharp, disciplined opening statement — a methodical narrative of motive, manipulation, and murder. Prosecutors allege Lori conspired with her brother, Alex Cox, to eliminate Charles for a $1 million life insurance policy and clear the path to marry apocalyptic author Chad Daybell. With evidence including religious texts misused to justify killing, texts to Alex invoking scripture (“I will be like Nephi”), and forensic proof that Charles was shot twice — one bullet fired after he collapsed, the state paints a chilling picture of faith twisted into fanaticism.Then comes the chaos. Lori, representing herself, opens with rambling monologues, misplaced objections, and narcissistic cross-examinations that seem designed more to satisfy curiosity than to construct a defense. Her fixation on her late husband’s private life leaves jurors bewildered and prosecutors almost amused. As Faddis notes, “It’s like watching someone try to build a house without knowing what a hammer does.”Part two turns darker, as Robin Dreeke analyzes the devastating testimony of Alex Cox, now deceased but still very much present in the trial through recordings, statements, and evidence. Dreeke explores how narcissism, shared delusion, and familial loyalty intertwine in Lori’s world — and how her brother’s past words now serve as the prosecution’s most powerful witness.Was Lori’s courtroom confidence a sign of faith — or pure delusion? And how does a woman who once claimed divine authority handle being her own undoing?🎙️ Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski — 2025 Year in Review: The Trials, The Psychology, and The Crimes That Defined the Year.#LoriVallowDaybell #CharlesVallow #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #EricFaddis #RobinDreeke #TrueCrimePodcast #DoomsdayMom #CultPsychology #CourtroomDrama #SelfRepresentation #ChadDaybell #FamilyConspiracy #YearInReview #TrueCrimeTodayWant to comment and watch this podcast as a video?Check out our YouTube Channel. https://www.youtube.com/@hiddenkillerspodInstagram https://www.instagram.com/hiddenkillerspod/Facebook https://www.facebook.com/hiddenkillerspod/Tik-Tok https://www.tiktok.com/@hiddenkillerspodX Twitter https://x.com/tonybpodListen Ad-Free On Apple Podcasts Here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/true-crime-today-premium-plus-ad-free-advance-episode/id1705422872

As part of our Hidden Killers 2025 Year in Review series, we revisit the opening days of one of the most chilling courtroom dramas in modern true crime — the Arizona trial of Lori Vallow Daybell, the self-declared prophet now serving life sentences in Idaho for the murders of her children, JJ Vallow and Tylee Ryan, and the conspiracy to kill Tammy Daybell. This time, Lori stands accused of murdering her fourth husband, Charles Vallow — and she’s decided to be her own lawyer.In this two-part special, Tony Brueski and Stacy Cole dissect the emotional and strategic fireworks from both sides of the courtroom, starting with the prosecution’s explosive opening statement. Prosecutor Treena Kay laid out a devastating narrative of greed, manipulation, and religious delusion — alleging that Lori orchestrated the deaths of her husband and children to secure life insurance payouts and remove any obstacles to marrying Chad Daybell. Through phone records, witness testimony, and forensic evidence, the prosecution painted Lori as a woman willing to kill for prophecy, power, and profit.Tony and Stacy break down the psychological weight of the prosecution’s arguments — from the use of religious ideology as control to the manipulation of her brother Alex Cox, who became her self-proclaimed “angel of death.” They also analyze the jury’s visible reactions and the emotional undercurrent of a courtroom haunted by victims’ families still seeking answers.Then, in Part Two, the focus shifts to Lori’s stunning self-representation — and her surreal decision to stand as both defendant and defense counsel. Lori’s opening statement cast herself as misunderstood and unfairly vilified, arguing that her brother acted in self-defense during Charles’s death. But Tony and Stacy reveal how Lori’s calm, confident demeanor may mask deep narcissism and delusion — a belief that she alone can rewrite the narrative of her crimes.As Tony and Stacy unpack the legal and psychological implications of Lori’s “sovereign” defense, listeners gain rare insight into a defendant whose blend of charisma and chaos continues to defy legal logic and human empathy.🎙️ Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski — 2025 Year in Review: The Trials, The Delusions, and The Crimes That Defined the Year.#LoriVallowDaybell #CharlesVallow #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #StacyCole #TrueCrimePodcast #DoomsdayMom #CultCrimes #ChadDaybell #SelfRepresentation #PsychologicalDelusion #CourtroomDrama #YearInReview #TrueCrimeTodayWant to comment and watch this podcast as a video?Check out our YouTube Channel. https://www.youtube.com/@hiddenkillerspodInstagram https://www.instagram.com/hiddenkillerspod/Facebook https://www.facebook.com/hiddenkillerspod/Tik-Tok https://www.tiktok.com/@hiddenkillerspodX Twitter https://x.com/tonybpodListen Ad-Free On Apple Podcasts Here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/true-crime-today-premium-plus-ad-free-advance-episode/id1705422872

In this full episode of Hidden Killers Live, Tony Brueski, Stacy Cole, and Todd Michaels take you inside the minds of two of America’s most notorious convicted murderers — Donna Adelson and Chad Daybell — through the words they wrote themselves.Segment 1: Donna Adelson’s Prison Letter From a Florida jail cell, Donna Adelson wrote a 2024 letter to her husband Harvey describing how her heart “breaks” over missing her grandsons’ first day of school. What could have been a rare glimpse of remorse quickly spirals into denial and bitterness:“If I don’t get out, then hopefully I die soon so no one remembers me in prison garb.”She paints herself as the victim of “vigilante justice” and a “southern sweetheart prosecutor,” refusing to accept any role in the plot that left her former son-in-law, Dan Markel, dead. The Markel family’s official statement, read in court, shredded that illusion — accusing Donna of callous indifference and of cutting off Markel’s parents from their grandsons for six years. Tony unpacks the psychology of control, image management, and moral blindness that define the Adelson saga — and why Donna’s letter might be the most revealing confession she never meant to write.Segment 2: Chad Daybell’s Ghost Story Letter Then, we shift from manipulation to mysticism. In “Letter #7,” Chad Daybell — the self-proclaimed prophet now convicted of multiple murders — recounts his time as a Utah cemetery sexton. He writes of being haunted by a thief’s ghost, attacked by unseen forces, and taunted by demonic voices shouting, “We hate your books!” He interprets it all as proof that Heaven had chosen him for a divine mission.Tony dissects how this “ghost story” maps the arc of Daybell’s descent — from fantasy and grandiosity to apocalyptic belief — showing how delusion and ego fused into a theology that justified murder.Two letters. Two minds. One terrifying common thread: a total inability to see reality — or remorse — through the walls they built around themselves.#DonnaAdelson #ChadDaybell #HiddenKillers #TrueCrime #DanMarkel #LoriVallow #MurderForHire #CultCrimes #PsychologyOfEvil #TonyBrueskiWant to comment and watch this podcast as a video?Check out our YouTube Channel. https://www.youtube.com/@hiddenkillerspodInstagram https://www.instagram.com/hiddenkillerspod/Facebook https://www.facebook.com/hiddenkillerspod/Tik-Tok https://www.tiktok.com/@hiddenkillerspodX Twitter https://x.com/tonybpodListen Ad-Free On Apple Podcasts Here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/true-crime-today-premium-plus-ad-free-advance-episode/id1705422872

Big Breakdown - Lori Vallow & Chad Daybell's LOVE LETTERS EXPOSED! Just when you thought the Chad Daybell and Lori Vallow case couldn’t get any stranger, it does.In this Hidden Killers Live with Tony Brueski, Stacy Cole, and Todd Michaels, we dive into the disturbing new prison writings being released by convicted killer Chad Daybell — the same man sentenced to death for murdering his wife Tammy Daybell and conspiring with Lori Vallow in the killings of her children Tylee and JJ.Now from prison, Daybell is sending out letters that read like a twisted mix of Harlequin romance, religious prophecy, and cringe-inducing erotic fiction. In one infamous “love letter” to Lori — disguised through characters named James and Elena — Chad writes about their supposed eternal bond, their past lives alongside Jesus Christ, and a sexual “scientific phenomenon” he dubs “loin fire.” Yes, loin fire.The Hidden Killers team reads through these jaw-dropping passages, pausing to analyze how Daybell uses language to manipulate, justify, and romanticize a relationship that ultimately fueled murder. Why does he constantly insist they were married in past lives? Was this repetition a psychological tactic to control Lori? Or was he simply feeding his own delusion while trying to make their crimes feel “ordained”?Beyond the infamous letter, Daybell’s prison correspondence includes reflections on his Mormon mission, his excommunication from the LDS Church, and even his love for Whitney Houston’s “So Emotional” — which he bizarrely describes as a “sacred hymn.”It’s part delusion, part manipulation, and part window into a man who continues to craft his own narrative even behind bars.From loin fire to eternal sealing ceremonies, this episode isn’t just about shock value — it’s about understanding how people like Chad Daybell wrap destructive obsessions in layers of religion, romance, and fantasy.Want more breakdowns of the darkest and strangest corners of true crime?

The Near-Death Fantasies of Chad Daybell: A Cult Leader’s MindChad Daybell’s prison letter #5 dives headfirst into his so-called near-death experiences, and the results are as disturbing as they are absurd. From claiming he “died” four times to describing heaven with the soundtrack of Van Halen’s Jump, Daybell’s words show the twisted belief system he used to justify his crimes.The hosts break down each claim, exposing how Daybell recasts traumatic events as supernatural confirmation of his “prophetic” status. They also unpack the psychology of why he frames himself as chosen, and how he warps basic LDS doctrine into a personal mythology. At its core, this isn’t just a man telling tall tales — it’s a manipulator creating a story he hopes will excuse the inexcusable.With humor, skepticism, and sharp analysis, the conversation pulls apart the contradictions. Daybell insists that God kept sparing him for a higher purpose — but the hosts point out that maybe, just maybe, the universe was trying to get rid of him before things turned darker.Hashtags: #ChadDaybell #PrisonLetters #NearDeathExperience #CultCrimes #IdahoMurders #VanHalen #TrueCrimePodcast #LoriVallow #DarkPsychology #HiddenKillersWant to comment and watch this podcast as a video?Check out our YouTube Channel. https://www.youtube.com/@hiddenkillerspodInstagram https://www.instagram.com/hiddenkillerspod/Facebook https://www.facebook.com/hiddenkillerspod/Tik-Tok https://www.tiktok.com/@hiddenkillerspodX Twitter https://x.com/tonybpodListen Ad-Free On Apple Podcasts Here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/true-crime-today-premium-plus-ad-free-advance-episode/id1705422872

Chad Daybell’s Prison Letters + Sandra Birchmore’s Murder: The Complete BreakdownThis episode combines two disturbing true crime arcs into one sweeping discussion. First, the bizarre and delusional prison letters of Chad Daybell — filled with near-death fantasies, ghostly companions, and a warped theology he used to justify unspeakable acts. With humor and sharp analysis, the hosts dismantle his narrative and expose how Daybell’s self-image as a prophet masks deep dysfunction and danger.The second half pivots into the Sandra Birchmore case, one of the most disturbing examples of police abuse and systemic cover-up in recent memory. Groomed by Officer Matthew Farwell from the age of 14, Sandra was later found dead in a staged suicide. Her death, and the investigation that followed, revealed not only Farwell’s betrayal but a network of corruption within local law enforcement that looked the other way for years.With Bob Motta joining in, the conversation spans delusion, grooming, corruption, and the human cost of unchecked authority. It’s a double case study in power abused and justice delayed.Hashtags: #ChadDaybell #SandraBirchmore #MatthewFarwell #TrueCrimePodcast #PoliceCorruption #CultCrimes #JusticeForSandra #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimeCommunity #DarkPsychologyWant to comment and watch this podcast as a video?Check out our YouTube Channel. https://www.youtube.com/@hiddenkillerspodInstagram https://www.instagram.com/hiddenkillerspod/Facebook https://www.facebook.com/hiddenkillerspod/Tik-Tok https://www.tiktok.com/@hiddenkillerspodX Twitter https://x.com/tonybpodListen Ad-Free On Apple Podcasts Here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/true-crime-today-premium-plus-ad-free-advance-episode/id1705422872
