Description: Before the fentanyl. Before the alleged forgeries. Before the affair. Before any of what prosecutors say happened in the Kouri Richins case — there was a beginning. A courtship. A relationship that by all outward appearances looked like love.Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins Tony Brueski and Robin Dreeke to examine what that beginning likely looked like through the lens of narcissistic and borderline relationship psychology. How someone with this pattern selects a partner. How they make that partner feel chosen, seen, and irreplaceable. And how by the time the mask begins to slip, the trap is already fully set.If you've followed the Kouri Richins case and found yourself asking how Eric didn't see it — this episode answers that question in full.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
