Summary

“Your F-ing Kids”? Therapist Explains the Psychological Toll of Karen Read’s Rants
What kind of person lies in bed next to two children—John O’Keefe’s niece and nephew, the very kids he raised after their parents died—and unleashes a verbal tirade about how their uncle is a “f-ing pervert,” a “f-ing loser,” and is “f-ing another girl”?

In this eye-opening episode, psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins us to dissect the disturbing behavior allegedly exhibited by Karen Read. With decades of experience in analyzing narcissistic rage, emotional dysregulation, and psychological manipulation, Shavaun offers deep insight into what these outbursts might signal—and why they’re so damaging to Read’s credibility.

We explore:
– Why Karen Read’s own words are undermining her defense
– The psychological toll on the children present during her verbal explosions
– How rage triggered by a woman’s name used for directions may point to deeper pathology
– The difference between grief, guilt, and reputational panic
– How jurors may perceive unfiltered emotional outbursts when children are involved

This isn’t just a legal case—it’s a window into unchecked emotion, possible narcissistic traits, and the damage done when raw emotion becomes courtroom evidence.
