A mom fights off an intruder on camera—but police say this terrifying Arizona home invasion wasn’t a random attack. Bella Torres was home with her two young children in Buckeye, Arizona, when a stranger allegedly forced his way inside and attacked her. Home surveillance footage captured her screams, her fight to protect her family, and a chilling exchange that would raise disturbing questions about why she was targeted. As detectives investigated, alleged Reddit messages and a revealing timeline took the case in an unexpected direction. Join Lauren Matthias on Hidden True Crime as she examines the security camera footage, court documents, and allegations behind an attack that may be far more calculated than it first appeared. All defendants are presumed innocent unless proven guilty.

Lori Vallow Daybell is fighting to overturn her Idaho murder convictions—but could a new trial put the death penalty back on the table? Hidden True Crime’s Lauren Matthias breaks down the Idaho Supreme Court appeal hearing, the justices’ tough questions, and the arguments surrounding the removal of Lori’s former attorney, Mark Means. At the center of the hearing: whether Lori’s constitutional rights were violated while she was deemed incompetent to proceed, and whether evidence involving Charles Vallow’s death and the attempted shooting of Brandon Boudreaux should have been admitted at trial. We examine the defense’s push to overturn her convictions in the deaths of JJ Vallow, Tylee Ryan, and Tammy Daybell, Idaho’s response, and what could happen next as the court considers her appeal.

Forensic psychologist Dr. John Matthias joins Lauren Matthias to examine the disturbing questions surrounding Jacob “Jake” Johnson, who pleaded guilty to the aggravated murder of Summer Roney. What can his past relationships reveal about power, control, and possessiveness? How might family enmeshment help us understand his relationship dynamics? And what does the discovery of alleged CSAM mean—and what can it tell us about his  interests? Hidden True Crime explores the reported evidence, warning signs of abuse, and psychological questions that remain in the Summer Roney case, known as the Utah House of Horrors.
