Four young women. One devastating crash. And a courtroom now wrestling with a question nobody wants to ask out loud: when does reckless behavior cross the line into murder?



In today’s episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, we dive deep — not into outrage, not into assumptions, but into the uncomfortable space where law and emotion collide. The case of Fraser Michael Bohm, the 22-year-old accused of driving over 100 mph on Malibu’s Pacific Coast Highway before striking parked cars and killing four Pepperdine students, is now shaping up to be one of the most complex legal and moral debates in recent memory.



Prosecutors say Bohm knew the danger. He knew the road. He’d lost friends to high-speed crashes before. And yet, according to investigators, he pushed his BMW past triple-digit speeds on a stretch known as “Dead Man’s Curve.” They argue this wasn’t a random tragedy — it was implied malice, the level of awareness that elevates a fatal crash into murder under California law.



But the defense sees something different. They call this a catastrophic mistake — not malice. They point to his lack of impairment, his clean record, the possibility of panic or misjudgment, and the long legal tradition that separates negligence from murder. They argue that broadening the definition of malice risks criminalizing tragedy rather than intention.



So who’s right?

Does the foreseeability of danger define the crime?

Or should the law resist bending under the weight of public grief?



This episode challenges assumptions on both sides. It asks you to sit with the discomfort and think — truly think — about what justice means in a case where intent, recklessness, and tragedy all overlap.



If you’ve already picked a side in the Bohm case… this might make you reconsider.
