Live on Hidden Killers — psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins Tony Brueski and Robin Dreeke to break down what the Kouri Richins case puts in sharp focus: how someone with narcissistic or borderline patterns pulls their partner in before the target ever sees it coming.
This isn't about the crime. It's about what came before it — the relationship architecture that prosecutors say was built around control from day one. The love bombing. The mirroring. The children. The pace of it all. And why someone like Eric Richins — capable, grounded, and by all accounts nobody's fool — didn't see the trap until he was already inside it.
Shavaun Scott brings over 30 years of clinical experience working with intimate partner violence — as both a therapist and a survivor — and she doesn't speak in clinical terms. She speaks like someone who has sat across from the people living this and the people who caused it.
We're taking your questions live tonight as we explore the opening phase of a narcissistic relationship and what the warning signs look like before you can see them clearly.
