Why We Turn to Conspiracies After Tragedy? Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott Explains

Why We Turn to Conspiracies After Tragedy? Psychotherapist
Shavaun Scott Explains

In this final segment, the Hidden Killers Live team unpacks the
psychological pull of conspiracy theories following the Charlie
Kirk assassination. Shavaun Scott explains why
the human brain craves certainty after chaos, and how conspiracy
thinking offers both a sense of control and emotional escape.
Tony Brueski and his co-hosts reflect on the hopelessness many
feel in today’s polarized climate, the erosion of problem-solving
in leadership, and the psychological cost of living in constant
fear. The episode closes with the FBI’s press conference,
revealing new investigative details — but the focus remains on
the psychology of coping, control, and collective anxiety when
violence shatters the national psyche.
