What Caused Karen Read's RAGE Towards John O'Keefe, Psychotherapist Explains
from Mind Behind The Crime | The Psychology Of Killers · host True Crime Today
What kind of person burns their life down to support someone they’ve never met—especially someone accused of murder?Tony Brueski and psychotherapist Shavaun Scott dig into the psychology behind the super fans of alleged killer Karen Read, questioning what drives ordinary people to lose their grip on reality in the name of "justice." From people flying across countries and going bankrupt just to protest outside courtrooms, to disturbing voicemails and bizarre courtroom behavior, this episode dives headfirst into what might be going on in the minds of Read’s supporters—and Read herself. Is it narcissism? Projection? Insecurity? Why does someone accuse their partner of cheating with the same breath they use to try seducing his friends?As Brueski and Scott dissect her emotional tirades, courtroom smirks, and lack of empathy—especially towards the children of the man she's accused of killing—it raises a chilling question: what kind of person identifies with this behavior, and why are they so eager to defend it?What does it say about us when red flags look like rally cries?#KarenRead #TrueCrimePodcast #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #ShavaunScott #PsychologyOfCrime #TrueCrimeTodayWant to listen to ALL our podcasts AD-FREE?
