In the podcast 'Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski', Tony discusses the trial of Karen Read, focusing on her controversial statement, "I hit him," at the scene. The episode features psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott, who provides insights into the reliability of such statements made under distress. The discussion revolves around the confusion at the crime scene, with conflicting accounts from first responders and the influence of alcohol, which may have led Karen to be in a blackout state. The podcast examines the challenges of interpreting statements made by individuals in high-stress situations, particularly when influenced by substances, raising questions about the actual events and Karen’s culpability.

Main Points:
