The Club Kids murder sent shockwaves through the New York City club scene. Michael Alig seemed to have a propensity for shock throughout his life and his interviews that makes me wonder if Sigmund Freud would hold up this case as a quintessential example of the Death Drive.

Were Jared Loughner's attempts to achieve "mind control" out of "conscience dreaming" born of a desperate, unconscious realization that he had lost control of his mental structures? And can we say anything about the motive for targeting and shooting Gabrielle Giffords, in a case of severe mental illness?

What caused this quiet and demure husband and father of two to suffocate his entire family one night? I analyze the pharmacological and primarily psychological factors that may have contributed. I propose that Chris Watts is fundamentally a people-pleasing, passive-dependent "nice guy," who found a new love object that made nothing else matter. Internally he decided on a hard reset, and to the rest of us it appeared as a silent snap. 

I look at Burke Ramsey's behavioral history, watch his child psych interviews, and discuss diagnostic possibilities.

The primary purpose of this video is to undermine any high-paid defense experts who try to make the case that touch DNA resulting as "unknown" clears any suspects.

As for the Ramsey case - the point is not that they were involved. The point is that the DNA evidence does not clear them.
