What do a murdered judge in rural Kentucky and a teenage girl found dead in a Tesla in Los Angeles have in common?

Power. Silence. And the terrifying psychology of what happens when no one speaks up—until it’s too late.

In this special Hidden Killers hour, we’re joined by Robin Dreeke, retired FBI Special Agent and former Chief of the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program, to break down two high-profile cases where power dynamics, manipulation, and narrative control aren’t just side plots—they’re the main event.

🚨 Segment One: The Sheriff & The Judge
In September 2024, Sheriff Shawn “Mickey” Stines walked into Judge Kevin Mullins’ chambers and opened fire. The killing was caught on courthouse surveillance. But the deeper story? A civil rights lawsuit, women coming forward with allegations of sexual coercion tied to courthouse officials, and a justice system so insular that it turned on itself. Dreeke unpacks the behavioral collapse, the institutional rot, and what it means when the courthouse becomes the crime scene.

🚗 Segment Two: The Tesla Trunk & the Dead Girl
Celeste Rivas Hernandez, a teenager, was found dead in the front trunk of a Tesla linked to music artist d4vd. No one reported her missing. The car sat for weeks. And since the discovery? Nothing. No arrests. No statement. Just silence. Robin Dreeke helps us explore the psychology of concealment, celebrity protection, and how behavior always tells a story—even when the public statements never come.

Together, these cases ask one chilling question: What happens when those in power are the ones who cross the line—and everyone else looks away?

This episode dives deep into warning signs, behavioral red flags, and the emotional detachment that often precedes tragedy. From rural corruption to celebrity image control, Dreeke brings his years of FBI experience to help us see what these silences are really saying.
