Is the truth really hidden, or is it “not-not” hidden? Tonight at 7:30 PM CT, we peel back the layers on the history you haven’t heard.
For years, Hidden True Crime has explored the psychological depths of others; tonight, we turn the lens toward the source. This is a comprehensive look into the “Not-Not” Hidden History of Lauren Matthias. We aren’t just looking at the psychology of cases; we are looking at the history of the historians—the patterns, lineages, and facts that aren’t suppressed, just overlooked.
This is about how we consume true crime and the accountability of those telling the story. 📝✨
About the Researcher: The “Not-Not” Hidden History
The foundation of Hidden True Crime is built on a very public, traceable history:
LDS Lineage: Raised in the LDS Church with a mission to Cleveland, Ohio. This “insider” lens used for the Vallow-Daybell case carries the inherent biases of a “not-not” hidden culture.
Professional Lineage: A decade as a reporter/anchor for ABC, NBC, and FOX. Lauren reported from the exact hubs of the Vallow-Daybell saga—East Idaho and Southern Utah—long before the “Hidden” brand existed.
Family History: Significant public events, including her father’s legal proceedings and her brother’s tragic accident, which shaped her relationship with the justice system and the “fear of death” narrative.
The Paradox: “Not-Not Hidden” refers to the reality that while the branding suggests a secret psychological dive, the perspectives are direct results of these visible, public-facing life experiences.
