In the podcast "Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski," psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott discusses the perplexing and extreme case of Sherri Papini. Papini fabricated a kidnapping story, going as far as self-inflicting injuries and involving a former boyfriend to help stage her abduction. Scott explains that Papini's actions likely stem from severe cluster B personality disorders, including narcissistic, histrionic, and borderline personality disorders, which are often rooted in childhood trauma and neglect. Despite her release from prison and her statement about making amends, Scott expresses skepticism about Papini's capacity for genuine remorse and change. Scott emphasizes the challenges in treating such disorders, noting that long-term, intensive therapy is often required. The conversation touches on the complexities of such personality disorders and the necessity of accountability and truth in any potential rehabilitation.
