  • BREAKING: Devil's Den Accused Andrew McGann Pleads NOT GUILTY
    2025/08/14
    BREAKING: Devil's Den Accused Andrew McGann Pleads NOT GUILTY
    Andrew James McGann — the man accused of slaughtering Clinton and Cristen Brink during a family hike at Devil’s Den State Park — stood in a closed-door courtroom today and pleaded not guilty to two counts of capital murder. The plea comes despite what Arkansas State Police say was a clear, detailed confession just days after his arrest.

    On July 26, 2025, the Brinks were hiking with their young daughters when they were brutally attacked. Clinton was killed first; Cristen ran with the children toward safety — then turned back for her husband, losing her life in the process. The girls escaped and led rescuers back to their parents.

    After a four-day manhunt, McGann was arrested in a Springdale barbershop — mid-haircut — and reportedly admitted to the killings. DNA evidence, eyewitness accounts, and surveillance all pointed to him. Yet today, behind closed doors with no cameras or public gallery, McGann spoke two words that will define the next chapter of this case: “Not guilty.”

    Why would someone reportedly confess, then plead not guilty? It’s the standard move in a capital case, where prosecutors are seeking the death penalty. But the contradiction between his alleged words to police and his words in court has left the public stunned, the victims’ family heartbroken, and the community on edge.

    This episode dives deep into the plea, the timeline of the murders, McGann’s background as a former teacher with troubling past allegations, the possibility of other crimes under investigation, and what this means for the trial ahead.

  • THIS Legal Failure Is Putting Your Kids at Risk! Why YOU NEED To Demand Change NOW!
    2025/08/14
    THIS Legal Failure Is Putting Your Kids at Risk! Why YOU NEED To Demand Change NOW!

    How does a man like Andrew McGann move from district to district, facing red flags and disturbing allegations, only to land in another classroom? How does he end up the suspect in a brutal double homicide just days before he was scheduled to start teaching again? And how is that story not rare?

    In this full-length conversation, defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis joins Tony Brueski on Hidden Killers to break down what’s gone catastrophically wrong in our nation’s school systems. Across four deep segments, we expose the legal cracks, cultural cowardice, and systemic failures that allow predatory teachers to keep slipping through.

    We start with the collapse of mandatory reporting, where laws exist but accountability doesn't. Then we pull the curtain back on how districts “pass the trash”—quietly pushing out problematic employees with no record or warning. Faddis explains how internal investigations are used not to protect children, but to protect institutions from lawsuits.

    We explore the liability-first culture that paralyzes schools from acting even when patterns emerge. And we close with the reforms that must happen if we’re ever going to stop seeing headlines like the one out of Devil’s Den.

    This is not a conspiracy. This is happening — in your state, in your district, maybe even in your kid’s school.

    If you care about transparency in education, this conversation is essential. Watch the full breakdown and share it — because silence is what keeps these predators protected.

  • Reform or Repeat — What Needs to Change NOW To Protect Kids From Dangerous Teachers
    2025/08/13
    Reform or Repeat — What Needs to Change NOW To Protect Kids From Dangerous Teachers

    We’ve exposed how predators get passed from district to district, protected by law and apathy. Now—it’s time to fix it.

    In our final segment, Eric Faddis turns the lens on reform. What policy changes, laws, and protections can break the cycle?

    We explore proposals like:

    • Mandatory national misconduct database for educators

    • Timely cross-state reporting of resignation or misconduct

    • Criminal penalties for administrators who conceal abuse

    • Mandatory visual documentation in classrooms for transparency

    We also confront the cultural resistance: fear of teacher shortages, union backlash, and budget constraints. Eric argues that real change requires legal accountability, community outrage, and public pressure that outlasts headlines.

    If you’re ready for solutions—not more excuses—this episode lays them out in sharp, actionable detail. Then we close with the hard truth: until the system is restructured around kids, not careers, we’re just preparing the ground for the next tragedy.

  • Liability vs. Justice — Why Schools Protect Predators Over Students!
    2025/08/12
    Liability vs. Justice — Why Schools Protect Predators Over Students!

    By now you know the cracks in the system. But what drives schools to ignore them? Hint: it’s not protecting kids.

    In Part 3, Eric Faddis dives deep into the culture of liability protection that empowers cover-ups. Districts prioritize image and insurance premiums, not student safety. Internal investigations become bureaucratic buffers instead of truth-seeking safeguards. Talent gets rehired; adults get protected; kids get endangered.

    Explore how union contracts, reputation fears, and well-meaning—but compromised—administrators contribute to systemic failure. Eric also discusses how these self-protective practices discourage staff from reporting misconduct and exclude accountability.

    We break down why this isn’t just administrative inertia—it’s baked into the legal incentives. When risk outweighs righteousness, kids lose every time.

    If you’re fed up with excuses and want to understand exactly why the system shields predators, this episode cuts straight to the truth.

  • The School HR Emails You Won’t See About "Passing The Trash"! And Why It Matters
    2025/08/11
    The School HR Emails You Won’t See About "Passing The Trash"! And Why It Matters

    If a teacher gets caught in an investigation—why can they still get hired elsewhere? Welcome to the epidemic of “passing the trash.”

    In Part 2, Eric Faddis walks us through the horrifying reality: when allegations surface, many districts quietly let problematic teachers resign under vague terms like “personnel issues.” Because they didn’t file formal complaints or mandate reporting, those red flags vanish. The teacher walks into a new district with a clean résumé and no paper trail.

    Research shows that the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) explicitly prohibits rehire of teachers with known abuse records—but almost 40 states have yet to implement related policies.

    Eric explains why administrators choose self-preservation over safety and how, in many states, districts are legally allowed to keep misconduct off official records—so long as no criminal charges were filed. Parents aren’t warned, students aren’t protected, and predators stay on the move.

    This is how Andrew McGann, the Devils Den suspect, bounced from district to district with no red flag—until tragedy struck.

    If you’ve ever wondered how someone like that wasn’t stopped before, this episode lays it bare. Watch, share, and start demanding reform.
