Episode Details

Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins Hidden Killers LIVE to break down the family dynamics that trapped Rob and Michele Reiner in a 30-year cycle with their son Nick. We're taking your questions on how families normalize dangerous behavior, why "trying everything" sometimes isn't enough, and what other families can learn from this tragedy.

TMZ reported the Reiners had "grown used to" Nick's alarming behavior. Michele reportedly told people "we've tried everything." They brought Nick to Conan O'Brien's party because they were afraid to leave him alone—then apologized and left when his behavior alarmed other guests. What happens psychologically when crisis becomes the baseline?

The surviving Reiner siblings oppose the death penalty for their brother. After a parricide, is that forgiveness, guilt, exhaustion, or something else? Join us live with your questions as Shavaun explains the psychology of families torn apart by severe mental illness.
