Summary
The Kouri Richins trial put evidence, testimony, and legal arguments on the record. This conversation puts the psychology on the record — and that's the part that speaks to the widest audience.
Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins Tony Brueski and Robin Dreeke to walk through the complete psychological arc of the Richins marriage — using documented patterns of narcissistic and borderline relationships as the lens. The love bombing that makes the beginning feel like fate. The coercive control that makes the middle feel inescapable. The dangerous calculus of the exit. And what recovery honestly demands from the people who make it out.
Listeners who have followed this case will find every unanswered question about the relationship itself addressed in full here.

| 0:14.7 | We're going to talk all about the psychological end of the whole case. From Corey to Eric, how it all played out, |
| 0:24.4 | why it all worked the way it did. |
| 0:27.5 | But we're going to begin today with a video, because I found it's rather interesting to look back on this case |
| 0:35.1 | at certain aspects now that the prism has aligned itself |
| 0:39.1 | to show that she is in fact guilty, that a jury of her peers found that she was lying her ass off |
| 0:45.2 | the entire time, including to Good Day, Utah, or whatever the hell the program was, |
| 0:51.8 | where Corey goes on, and we've all heard about it, we've all seen clips of this where |
| 0:55.6 | Corey is promoting her children's book, Are You With Me? |

| 1:56.1 | this. So let's begin with this, Todd. And let's just, let's just go right into into the video and then we'll stop here at a certain point. |
