About this listen
Description:
Sandra Birchmore was just 23 and pregnant when she was found dead in her Canton, Massachusetts apartment in 2021. The initial ruling? Suicide. But according to federal prosecutors, this was no mental health crisis—it was a murder designed to silence years of grooming and abuse at the hands of a police officer she trusted. In this episode, we speak with psychotherapist Shavaun Scott to unpack the psychology behind coercive control, trauma bonding, and why so many victims of abuse believe they’re in love with their predator. What happens when the only affection you’ve ever known is transactional? And what happens when it ends in death?
This isn’t just a cautionary tale—it’s a gut punch reminder of how abuse hides in plain sight. If you think you understand consent, grooming, or survivor psychology, this conversation will challenge everything.
