Zombies, Cults & Kids: Lori Vallow’s Mental Spiral Explained

from Mind Behind The Crime | The Psychology Of Killers · host True Crime Today

Zombies, Cults & Kids: Lori Vallow’s Mental Spiral ExplainedLori Vallow didn’t rant about zombies in court—and that might be the most chilling part. Instead of invoking bizarre religious visions or preaching about doomsday prophecies, she showed restraint. But why? Was this calculated control, or something deeper, darker? Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott unpacks the eerie awareness Lori displayed on the stand, how delusional disorders manifest beneath high-functioning exteriors, and the deeply disturbing loyalty of her brother Alex. From histrionic behaviors to detached justifications for murder, this conversation reveals a psychological profile that’s even more unsettling than the cult beliefs. Why did a respected doctor harbor secret delusions about euthanasia? Could Lori’s Burger King excuse actually be strategic? And how do cult dynamics explain family loyalty that ends in bloodshed?#LoriVallow #ChadDaybell #AlexCox #DelusionalDisorder #TrueCrimePsychology #ShavaunScott #HistrionicPersonality #LoriVallowTrial #TrueCrimeAnalysis #HiddenKillersPodcastWant 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
