The Curious Deaths Of Grace Holland & Sarah Sweeney

Feb 19, 04:00 PM

 What happens when repeated tragedies strike under the same roof, raising questions of foul play and potential cover-ups? This enigma is the focus of a recent episode of "Hidden Killers," where host Tony Brueski and former felony prosecutor and attorney Eric Faddis discuss the perplexing case involving firefighter Robert Daus.
Daus, who has not been charged with any crime, has been linked to the deaths of two fiancées, Grace Holland in and Sarah Sweeney, both occurring in his home near St. Louis. Brueski highlights the unusual circumstances of Holland's death, particularly her use of the non-dominant hand in what was ruled a suicide. Faddis, bringing his legal expertise, points out the alarming pattern: "Either this dude is the most unlucky person in the world, or there is something fishy going on."
The conversation then shifts to potential issues with the investigation, including a too-cozy relationship between the Krav Corp police department and the fire department. A suspiciously casual phone call from a detective to Daus requesting his phone, a potential key piece of evidence, is particularly concerning. Faddis notes, "To think that this thing doesn't happen would just be naive. It absolutely does happen."
Faddis shares his experience as a prosecutor, recalling a case where a police sergeant was given preferential treatment in a DUI investigation, suggesting a possible parallel with Daus's situation. He expresses concern about the impact of potential investigative delays and biases on the pursuit of justice.
As Brueski and Faddis delve deeper into the case, questions about the integrity of the investigation and the possibility of lost evidence emerge. "What evidence has been lost? What evidence are we never going to get again in what could be a very serious homicide investigation?" Faddis asks, underscoring the challenges in such cold cases.
The Daus case, still unresolved and shrouded in mystery, leaves the public wondering: In a situation where the lines between professional camaraderie and investigative integrity blur, can justice truly be served?
