Description

In the podcast "Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski," psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott discusses the emotional and psychological impact of the Karen Read case, particularly focusing on the harassment faced by Colin Albert and his close friends, including Ali McCabe. McCabe testifies about the ongoing harassment, including phone calls, emails, and people showing up at her house. Scott and Brueski delve into the cult-like mentality of some Read supporters who ignore facts and embrace conspiracy theories, driven by a need for rage and a sense of belonging. They criticize the Massachusetts State Police for inadequate investigations and express concern over the lasting trauma inflicted on those involved. The conversation highlights the broader societal issues of divisiveness and the addictive nature of rage, drawing parallels to political fanaticism and conspiracy theories.
