  • The Psychology Behind Karen Read’s 'Confession' – Shavaun Scott Breaks It Down
    What happens when a woman with a hazy memory, a high blood alcohol count, and a house full of police becomes the center of a homicide investigation? Day one of Karen Read’s retrial kicks off with the kind of courtroom tension and narrative twists that force you to question everything. Was it an accident fueled by alcohol and chaos, or a convenient scapegoating wrapped in power dynamics and alleged cover-ups?

    Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott joins to dissect the psychology behind Karen Read’s shifting statements—from early speculation and remorse to outright denial. Is she a woman genuinely haunted by blank spaces in her memory, or is she rewriting reality to survive? We dive into how trauma, peer pressure, and legal strategy might be colliding in one of Massachusetts' most polarizing trials. Featuring analysis of her Dateline interview, courtroom developments, and deeper insight into gaslighting and false memory, this episode explores what makes this case so disturbingly unforgettable.
