    Nov 6 2026
    After 520 days missing, 17-year-old Kylie Arellano has been FOUND ALIVE—but the horrifying details emerging from a newly filed federal criminal complaint are raising serious questions about what happened during her disappearance. Kylie was just 15 years old when she vanished from Garden City, Utah, in May 2025. While her mother desperately searched for answers and challenged claims that Kylie was simply a runaway, investigators now allege she was being held captive inside an Oregon basement. Lauren Matthias breaks down the investigation and how Kylie, along with the help of another child, saved herself from captivity.

  • Lori Vallow Daybell Wants a New Trial. Could She End Up Facing Death?
    Nov 4 2026
    *This episode was originally recorded live* 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.

  • Her Killer Pleaded Guilty. We Uncovered Another Investigation | Summer Roney —Utah House of Horrors
    Oct 27 2026
    Jacob Holt Johnson has pleaded guilty to aggravated murder in the death of Summer Roney. Now, newly uncovered search warrants raise disturbing questions about the Utah murder case, potential security camera footage, and evidence investigators reported finding on a computer seized from his home. Hidden True Crime’s Lauren Matthias was inside the courtroom for the October 22, 2026, plea hearing. In this update, she breaks down the agreement calling for life without parole, Summer’s family’s emotional reaction, and a troubling discrepancy between the account presented during the plea hearing and Summer’s documented cause of death. We also examine Johnson’s statements to detectives, a recorded jail call about saved Blink security videos, a warrant for his Google account, and the reported discovery of child sexual abuse material that prompted a separate search warrant. What did investigators ultimately recover—and what questions remain unanswered? More importantly, are there more victims who deserve justice?

  • She Exposed Her Ex on Peoples Court...Hours Later, She Vanished | Michelle Parker
    Oct 18 2026
    On November 17, 2011, Michelle Parker appeared on The People's Court alongside her ex-fiancé, Dale Smith, exposing their troubled relationship, allegations of infidelity, and a history of abuse. Just hours after the episode aired, the 33-year-old Florida mother of three mysteriously vanished after dropping off their twins at Dale's Orlando condo. Her abandoned Hummer, a bizarre one-word text message, and a cellphone recovered from a lake left investigators with more questions than answers. For nearly 15 years, Michelle Parker's disappearance remained one of Florida's most haunting unsolved mysteries—until October 14, 2026... But what finally led to an arrest after all these years? In this Hidden True Crime deep dive, Lauren Matthias investigates the FULL STORY of Michelle Parker's disappearance, the explosive People's Court episode, the evidence, the searches, the family's fight for justice, and the new forensic developments that could finally reveal what happened to Michelle Parker.
