Dateline just leaked explosive evidence in the Bryan Kohberger caseâand now the defense claims someone else did it. With the trial coming up late summer... is justice unraveling before it even begins?
#STSNation,
Welcome to Surviving the Survivor â the podcast that brings you the #BestGuests in all of #TrueCrime, covering the cases that matter most.
Tonight, we dive into the Bryan Kohberger legal earthquake.
First, the Dateline NBC special aired surveillance footage, phone pings, and graphic search historiesâall evidence that may have been under court seal.
Now, Judge Steven Hippler says the courtâs gag order was âlikelyâ violated, a special prosecutor may be appointed, and the entire case could be jeopardized.
Then came another curveball: At a May 15 hearing, Kohbergerâs defense dropped a sealed motion suggesting âalternate perpetratorsâ may be to blame. The judge wasnât buying itâat least not yet. Heâs demanding actual evidence before deciding whether the theory will be admissible.
Meanwhile, victim families are speaking out. Angela Navejas, mother of Madison Mogenâs best friend, says the defense is weaponizing distraction while ignoring the pain of the victimsâ loved ones. The Goncalves family posted: âOne step forward, two steps back.â Is this trial about to implode?

In the second week of Sean âDiddyâ Combsâ trial witness Danity Kane Singer Dawn Richard returns to stand and today she's up against the Defense in a heated Cross Examination.
Welcome to Surviving The Survivor, the podcast that brings you the #BestGuests in all of true crime. In this LIVE Diddy episode STS Host Joel Waldman will break down the very latest testimony and share the most important details about the case.
Dawn Richard testified about a 2009 incident where she witnessed Combs allegedly attack his ex, Casandra âCassieâ Ventura, with a frying pan while she was making him eggs. Richard's testimony explains the abuse she saw and the fear instilled in her.
Sean "Diddy" Combs is facing five criminal charges of sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy and transportation to engage in prostitution. The music mogul has pleaded not guilty to all charged.
Combsâ defense team agrees Diddy and Cassie Ventura had a volatile relationship in which both parties were violent. They even claim Combs may be guilty of domestic abuse â but not the crimes he is actually being charged with. So the question remains...will the state prove their case? Is there reasonable doubt?
The trial is expected to last eight weeks. Combs also faces more than 70 civil complaints, including one by Richard. He has denied all the allegations against him.

Charlie Adelson, already convicted in the Dan Markel murder and serving life, has filed a 91-page appeal. We break down what it reveals â and what it could mean for Donna, Wendi, and Harvey Adelson.
#STSNation,
Welcome to Surviving the Survivor, the show that brings you the very #BestGuests in all of #TrueCrime on trending criminal cases and this story is one that is close to our hearts.
Itâs the case that started it all for STS â the shocking murder-for-hire of FSU law professor Dan Markel. And we've been covering #JusticeforDanMarkel for a while now...
Convicted killer Charlie Adelson has filed a 91-page appeal seeking to overturn his life sentence â even as his mother, Donna Adelson, awaits trial and a new investigation is unfolding behind the scenes. Charlie Adelson is the brother of Wendi Adelson, Dan Markel's ex-wife, who was in the middle of a custody battle when Dan Markel was shot and killed after pulling into the driveway of his Tallahassee, Florida home in 2014. Charlie Adelson was convicted of hiring Latin King gang members to take out his ex brother-in-law, Dan Markel.

A new trial date has been set for Donna Adelson â August 19. But a secret investigation and recent wiretaps could have major consequences for the rest of the Adelson family.
#STSNation,
Welcome to Surviving the Survivor, the show that brings you the very #BestGuests in all of #TrueCrime on trending criminal cases.
This is the twisted murder-for-hire that started it all â the case of Dan Markel. Dan Markel was shot and killed moments after he pulled up his driveway and into his garage. He died the next day. Now, almost 11 years later the story is still unraveling as alleged co-conspirators, like Donna Adelson, are going on trial one by one.
Markel was killed in Tallahassee, Florida, in 2014, in a murder for hire in what prosecutors say was motivated by child custody issues with Markel's ex-wife, Wendi Adelson. Wendi Adelson's brother, Charlie Adelson, was convicted of the murder of Dan Markel in 2023 just days before his mother, Donna Adelson, was also arrested.
Weâre now learning that Donna Adelsonâs trial, which was supposed to start in June 2025, is now set to begin August 19, but major questions still remain.
A hearing is scheduled this Friday, and at the center of it all:
⢠An apparent secret investigation involving new wiretaps that went through February 2024
⢠Speculation is mounting that the case may expand beyond Donna and Charlie
⢠What could this mean for the other Adelsons like Wendi and Harvey?
