Could A Brain Scan Of Robert Telles Predict His Alleged Murderous Behavior?

True Crime Today | A True Crime Podcast

In this episode of "Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski," psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott discusses the psychological traits of Robert Telles, who is on trial for the murder of journalist Jeff German. Scott suggests that Telles exhibits a combination of narcissistic and histrionic personality traits, which could explain his dramatic and unusual behavior in court. These traits, often seen in people who crave attention and believe they deserve special treatment, can lead to extreme actions, particularly when combined with underlying psychopathy. Scott explains that individuals with such personality disorders rarely seek therapy because they lack insight into their behavior and often blame others for their problems. The conversation also touches on the potential for future scientific advancements in identifying these traits early in life through brain scans, which could lead to more effective interventions and parenting strategies.
**Main Points:**
- Robert Telles may exhibit a mix of narcissistic, histrionic, and psychopathic traits, contributing to his dramatic behavior.
- Histrionic personality disorder involves exaggerated emotions and a strong need for attention.
- People with these traits often struggle to recognize their own problems and blame others for their issues.
- Early identification of such traits through brain scans could improve interventions and parenting approaches.
- There is skepticism about whether society will effectively address these issues in the future.
