In this episode of "Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski," psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott explores the psychological dynamics surrounding Scott Peterson, who continues to receive significant attention from women despite his conviction for murdering his wife, Laci Peterson. The conversation delves into why certain women are drawn to men like Peterson, suggesting that these women often have low self-esteem and a desire to rescue perceived victims, despite overwhelming evidence of guilt. Scott explains that these women may fantasize about the innocence of such criminals and are often charmed by their manipulative behaviors. The discussion also touches on the impact this attention has on Peterson, noting that it likely boosts his ego and fuels his sense of grandiosity while he is in prison. Scott dismisses the idea that Peterson might believe in his innocence due to a psychotic break, emphasizing that he is grounded in reality and fully aware of his actions.
