Have you ever known someone who is a bit off? It could be a boss, co-worker, or your significant other. It can start with someone too good to be true, filled with charm and fake empathy. Then, they begin to show their true colors by controlling, manipulating, and destroying your life, or worse, ending it. Well, today we are going to be talking about psychopaths and how we can hopefully identify the red flags and protect ourselves from these predators. My guest on the show, Kerrie Droban, is an expert in psychopathy, studying this phenomenon, being recognized as an expert consultant on criminal pathology, and writing her newest book, Surviving a Psychopath: In Court. In Life. In “Love.” 

Kerrie Droban is a bestselling author, lawyer, public speaker, true crime television host and journalist seen on Netflix, 20/20, and ID TV, and host of her own podcast, Crime Stands Still.

Kerrie draws on her personal experience being in relationships with partners who exhibited psychopathic traits and being a capitol defense attorney representing inmates on death row for years.

Please enjoy part one of my interview with Kerrie Droban that I guarantee will send chills up your spine and give you some diagnostic tools to help you recognize a psychopath before it’s too late.   

In today’s episode we discuss:

·      Kerrie Droban being the original ‘spy kid’ having both parents as CIA operatives and spending her youth living in Africa.

·      How she balances being a bestselling author, lawyer, public speaker, true crime television host seen on Netflix, 20/20, and ID TV, and host of her own podcast, Crime Stands Still.

·      How she suggests others break into show business.

·      What is the definition of a psychopath, and how many has she known? 

·      Are all psychopaths predators?

·      How do we spot the traits of a psychopath, and why do we sometimes choose to ignore them?

·      Why do humans choose to ignore their intuition?

·      Gavin de Becker’s book, The Gift of Fear.

 All of this and more on today’s episode of the Cops and Writers podcast.
