In Season Two of her true crime series, The God Hook, journalist Carol Costello investigates the complex case of the Ohio Craigslist Killings—and in doing so, unearths the untold story of the crimes that preceded the murders—and the victims who’ve never received justice. Richard Beasley was convicted of murdering three men and attempting to kill a fourth in the fall of 2011, but before that heinous spree, authorities were building a human trafficking case against him.

The Brian Walshe case is one of those situations where the behavior speaks louder than the words. And when the behavior is stacked next to the timeline, the digital searches, and the ever-shifting narratives, the discrepancy becomes the whole story.
In this episode, psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins us to break down what the psychology reveals — not in theory, but in the real patterns prosecutors say Brian Walshe followed. We’re looking at the contrast between everyday lies and the kind of calculated misdirection that reshapes reality for everyone around it.
Shavaun brings decades of clinical experience to explain why certain behavioral choices — from early-morning Google searches to inconsistent statements to elaborate cover stories — raise red flags that aren’t just “suspicious” but psychologically telling. We analyze how serial deceivers rationalize their actions, why they believe they can outrun the truth, and how they maintain “normalcy” while living a double life.
We also unpack the defense’s version of events: the claim that Ana Walshe suddenly passed away, that Brian panicked, and that the dismemberment and disposal were responses to shock. Shavaun walks us through what genuine shock looks like, what guilt looks like, and how investigators typically spot the difference.
Then we widen the lens: what the psychology says about leaving dangerous relationships, why the time when a partner prepares to leave can be the most volatile, and how betrayal, financial stress, and loss of control can escalate risk in ways friends and family often overlook.
If you’ve ever wondered how trained professionals evaluate credibility, deception, and emotional performance in cases like this, this is the breakdown you need.
