Inside the Mind of a Mass Murderer: Unpacking the Psychology of Heinous Acts

As an expert, that's kind of where I get frustrated, because I do think that we can do things about it.
What drives someone to commit unthinkable acts of violence? In this episode of 'Weekly Infusion', Dr. Drew and Dr. Bruce Heischober sit down with Dr. Jonathan Metzl, a leading expert on mass murder, to explore the dark psychology behind events like the Las Vegas shooting. Dr. Metzl brings a nuanced perspective, emphasizing that the causes of mass shootings are complex and multifaceted.
It's not just about mental health disorders or gun control; it's about understanding the interplay between personal, social, and community factors. He challenges listeners to consider the limitations of labeling mass shooters and stresses the importance of taking a balanced approach to gun control debates. By examining these intricate dynamics, Dr. Metzl offers valuable insights and potential solutions for preventing such tragedies in the future.
If you're looking to understand more about what drives these horrific acts and how we can address them as a society, this episode is a must-listen.
