What kind of person does each of these cases point to? That's the behavioral question two FBI veterans take on in this long-form segment. Tony Brueski is joined by retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer — with former FBI Counterintelligence chief Robin Dreeke's behavioral lens in the room — to read the people at the center of three very different stories.
There's the masked figure who approached Nancy Guthrie's door in the dead of night and appeared to tamper with her camera before an 84-year-old woman vanished. What does that behavior say about planning, about whether the person knew her, about whether they acted alone? Investigators still haven't ruled out a second set of hands.
There's the teenager on camera in the Anna Kepner case, allegedly checking a hallway both ways before stepping out, then blocking a younger child from the cabin. The way someone moves in the minutes around a death often tells you more than any statement.
And there's Alex Murdaugh, whose murder convictions were overturned — where the behavioral question flips. Coffindaffer, who carried a weapon on FBI SWAT for two decades, takes apart whether one person could have done what the state described, and why the defense has never named the someone-else they keep implying.
This isn't about headlines or verdicts. It's about reading behavior the way the Bureau trains you to — patterns, tells, the things people do when they think no one's watching. Coffindaffer and Dreeke have spent careers doing exactly that. If you want the profiler's-eye view of three cases at once, press play.
