In this episode of "Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski," guest Robin Dreeke, a retired FBI Special Agent, discusses the perplexing case of Chad Daybell, who is accused of multiple crimes, including murder. The conversation explores Daybell's motivations and the psychological manipulations he may have experienced from Lori Vallow, described as the cult leader in their dynamic. Dreeke questions why Daybell would engage in such extreme actions, especially considering his obligations to his children from a previous relationship. The discussion also delves into the potential financial motives behind the alleged crimes, such as collecting insurance money, and the impact of failed personal careers on Daybell's decisions. Dreeke emphasizes the influence of cult dynamics, including the lack of isolation typically necessary for cult control, which may have contributed to leaks and eventual legal scrutiny. The episode provides a deep dive into the psychological and social elements that can drive individuals to commit heinous acts under the influence of manipulative partners.
