In 2014, a quiet California town became the epicentre of a chilling tragedy. Behind the headlines was a young man whose story—marked by loneliness, obsession, and agrowing detachment from reality—raises urgent questions about mental health and digital influence.

 

This episode explores the psychological and societal threads that led to the Isla Vista incident, offering insight without sensationalism. It’s a journey into the mind behind the violence—and what we might learn from the warning signs.
