Gary Colton joins Nules once again on the podcast, this time to discuss the psychology of serial killers and recent true crime cases. They explore the "Dark Triad" personality traits common in serial killers, the motivations behind familicide, and the impact of social media on high-profile cases like Chris Watts. Gary offers insights into the mentality of killers, the role of childhood experiences, and society's fascination with true crime. The conversation covers recent Irish cases, including the Michael Gaine and Tina Satchwell cases, as well as international incidents. Gary's expertise in psychology provides a deep dive into the complexities of the criminal mind and the factors that contribute to extreme acts of violence.
