Why We Turn to Conspiracies After Tragedy? Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott ExplainsIn this final segment, the Hidden Killers Live team unpacks the psychological pull of conspiracy theories following the Charlie Kirk assassination. Shavaun Scott explains why the human brain craves certainty after chaos, and how conspiracy thinking offers both a sense of control and emotional escape. Tony Brueski and his co-hosts reflect on the hopelessness many feel in today’s polarized climate, the erosion of problem-solving in leadership, and the psychological cost of living in constant fear. The episode closes with the FBI’s press conference, revealing new investigative details — but the focus remains on the psychology of coping, control, and collective anxiety when violence shatters the national psyche.Hashtags:#CharlieKirk #ConspiracyPsychology #ShavaunScott #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #TrueCrimePodcast #PoliticalViolence #Hopelessness #CopingWithTrauma #PsychologicalAnalysisWant to comment and watch this podcast as a video?Check out our YouTube Channel. https://www.youtube.com/@hiddenkillerspodInstagram https://www.instagram.com/hiddenkillerspod/Facebook https://www.facebook.com/hiddenkillerspod/Tik-Tok https://www.tiktok.com/@hiddenkillerspodX Twitter https://x.com/tonybpodListen Ad-Free On Apple Podcasts Here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/true-crime-today-premium-plus-ad-free-advance-episode/id1705422872
