In this episode of No Contest: Kolsrud and King Report, attorney Josh Kolsrud and former police officer and domestic violence expert Claudia King examine the latest developments in the Brian Hooker case and discuss newly reported evidence that could play a critical role in the investigation.

The conversation explores an Apple Watch allegedly belonging to the victim and an infrared camera reportedly connected to Brian Hooker, raising important questions about what investigators know and what they may still need to prove. Josh and Claudia break down the legal and investigative challenges facing prosecutors in a case where a body has not been recovered, discussing why determining cause of death, manner of death, and time of death can be crucial in a homicide prosecution.

They also examine the role of circumstantial evidence, the realities of building a criminal case without a body, and whether additional evidence could strengthen or weaken the allegations against Hooker. Throughout the discussion, Josh and Claudia emphasize a principle at the heart of the justice system: the victim's family deserves answers and justice, and Brian Hooker deserves a fair process, whether that ultimately leads to exoneration or accountability.

Plus, they discuss the growing influence of public opinion, trial-by-media, and how a suspect's actions can shape perceptions long before a jury hears the evidence.

If you're following the Brian Hooker investigation, true crime cases, criminal law, missing persons investigations, homicide prosecutions, or high-profile criminal cases making headlines, this is an episode you won't want to miss.

A 14-year-old girl’s decomposed remains were found bagged in the frunk (front trunk) of a rising star’s abandoned Tesla, and yesterday, that star, D4vd (David Burke), was arrested on suspicion of her murder.

In this episode of No Contest, co-host Claudia King, former law enforcement officer and domestic violence expert, sits down with high-profile defense attorney and co-host Josh Kolsrud to break down the explosive new developments in the Celeste Rivas Hernandez case.

We examine the significant holes in the prosecution’s circumstantial case, the critical importance of presumption of innocence, the unusual procedural path from grand jury to yesterday’s arrest, and what happens when the DA reviews the case on Monday.

Josh and Claudia also discuss potential statements from friends in D4vd’s circle, the family dynamics surrounding Celeste’s multiple runaway reports, and the question of whether her parents could face any legal scrutiny for the circumstances leading up to her disappearance. Was this grooming, trafficking, domestic abuse, or simply an accident covered up in the worst way?

From forensic challenges caused by advanced decomposition to coercive control red flags in the relationship, this conversation cuts through the headlines with legal insight, investigative perspective, and a commitment to due process.

Timely, unfiltered, and essential listening as this high-profile case moves forward.

In this explosive episode of No Contest, hosts Claudia King, Josh Kolsrud, and Holland Reid break down the shocking OnlyFans model Courtney Clenney (aka Courtney Tailor) murder case. Charged with second-degree murder in the April, 2022, stabbing death of her boyfriend, Christian Obumseli, Clenney claims self-defense, but her story raises major red flags.

How did a thrown knife allegedly plunge 3 inches deep into Obumseli’s chest from across the room? We dissect her bizarre account, the forensic evidence that challenges it, and the toxic relationship dynamics at play. Was this a clear case of domestic violence with one abuser and one victim, or were both Courtney Clenney and Christian Obumseli caught in a mutually abusive cycle? We also tackle the racial undertones of the case, with Clenney being white and Obumseli black, and whether the defense will steer clear of this dynamic or try to use it in their case.

Plus, we explore the darker side of true crime fandom: Why are so many people drawn to writing letters to killers behind bars? And in the age of social media, do we ever really know anyone? With curated highlight reels showing only the best versions of ourselves, how often are people living completely different realities offline?

From Miami luxury apartment to courtroom delays (with the trial now pushed to August, 2026), this high-profile case is full of twists, contradictions, and uncomfortable questions about love, violence, and authenticity.

If you love deep dives into controversial true crime cases, domestic violence debates, and the psychology of crime and attraction, this is one you don’t want to miss.

Nancy Guthrie missing update February 17 2026 – Day 17 of the shocking abduction of 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie, mother of TODAY show anchor Savannah Guthrie, from her Tucson, Arizona home. In this urgent No Contest episode, our attorney and former law enforcement officer break down the latest twists in the Nancy Guthrie case.

Key revelations: Glove DNA yields NO matches in CODIS national database (and doesn't match unknown home DNA) – what this dead end means for the investigation. FBI secures a federal warrant for a major search near the scene, but reports of friction between FBI and Pima County Sheriff's Office raise questions about coordination in this high-profile kidnapping.

Another anonymous Bitcoin ransom demand hits TMZ (the fourth so far) – our experts explain why paying ransom could be dangerous and counterproductive, per FBI protocols. We dive into the real motive: Is it a botched burglary gone wrong, personal grudge, fame-related obsession tied to Savannah Guthrie, or something else? No leading theory yet, but we break down why some options are more likely than others.

The Bluetooth "sniffing" tech – FBI deploys advanced signal sniffers (including helicopter-mounted devices) to hunt Nancy Guthrie's pacemaker MAC address for location clues. Why going public with this high-tech tool was likely a misstep that could tip off the suspect and what it could have forced them to do.

Plus: The 16 total gloves collected near the home – most discarded by volunteers and searchers, contaminating the scene and complicating forensics...was it sloppiness or was there a deeper meaning? Why limited camera footage in the Catalina Foothills area (no widespread surveillance) is hurting the case, and what investigators are doing next.

Attorney insights on warrants, evidence admissibility, motive in prosecutions, and why family clearance shifts focus. Former LEO perspective on suspects inserting themselves into investigations, additional possibilities with the DNA on the glove, and why the Sheriff may have wanted to take a step back once the FBI came in.

Nancy Guthrie Missing: Savannah Guthrie's Mom Abducted – Timeline, Masked Intruder Video, Person of Interest Detained & Released, Motive Theories | No Contest Podcast

In this gripping episode of No Contest, we break down the shocking disappearance of Nancy Guthrie, the 84-year-old mother of TODAY show co-anchor Savannah Guthrie. Nancy Guthrie was abducted from her Tucson, Arizona home on February 1, 2026 – we walk through the full timeline, from her last sighting on January 31 to the chilling Nest doorbell camera footage showing a masked individual with a gun tampering with the camera.

We dive deep into the latest developments: a person of interest detained south of Tucson (near Rio Rico) during a traffic stop, his home searched under a sealed warrant, and his release without charges after hours of questioning. Was he truly cleared? We explore Miranda rights, the role of polygraphs in investigations like this, and why authorities haven't charged anyone yet.

Is Nancy Guthrie still alive? Her family believes she is and has offered to pay ransom, but with no confirmed contact from kidnappers and her medical vulnerabilities (limited mobility, daily medications, pacemaker), time is critical. We analyze whether this was a professional kidnapping or an amateur operation – the "amateurish" camera tampering, lack of immediate ransom demand, and botched elements raise red flags...but what do those red flags mean?

Join us as we discuss the real motivation behind the crime: personal grudge, obsession tied to Savannah Guthrie's fame, botched robbery gone wrong, or something else?

If you're searching for Nancy Guthrie update, Savannah Guthrie mom missing, Nancy Guthrie abduction details, masked gunman doorbell cam, person of interest Nancy Guthrie, or theories on why Nancy Guthrie was kidnapped – this episode has the analysis you want from the people you can trust to always deliver their thoughts, no holds barred.

VA vs Brendan Banfield is heating up as we enter a week where Banfield may testify and the defense will likely rest its case. This will shift the trial back to the prosecution for a rebuttal. Today, we will discuss whether or not Banfield will or should testify, and we'll talk more about the what the digital forensics are or are not telling us. Is there reasonable doubt? Or has the prosecution proven their case already?

We then shift our conversation to ICE in Minnesota. After recent highly publicized events in Minnesota, is Governor Walz promoting peace or pushing a false narrative to get people angry? We talk about ICE operations from a legal and moral perspective, and we discuss what one thing that isn't being done would give everyone peace of mind regarding the recent ICE-involved incidents.

Charlie Kirk's assassination set off a firestorm of opinions: some felt he deserved to die because of his beliefs, while others believed he was murdered by a left-wing radical who was afraid of Kirk's growing popularity among young men. In this episode of No Contest, we talk about the overarching concept of free speech. We talk about what it really means legally and socially, and we debate whether Kirk was spreading hate or debating with others to allow conflicting viewpoints to be heard and discussed. We also talk about the possibility of conspiracy charges for people who may have encouraged or helped Tyler Robinson along the way.

Don't be fooled: Our panel often disagrees and argues passionately, and this episode is no different.
