Months. That's how long prosecutors allege David Anthony Burke carried on after Celeste Rivas Hernandez was allegedly last seen alive at his Hollywood Hills home. A late-night trip to Santa Barbara. Coachella. Album release. World tour. Smiling on stage in Minneapolis while her remains sat in a trunk across the country in Los Angeles.

And around him, an inner circle that allegedly knew pieces of the story — and said nothing until a grand jury forced the issue.

In Part 2 of a three-part interview series, psychotherapist and violence psychology expert Shavaun Scott sits down with Tony Brueski to unpack the psychology of silence, compartmentalization, and the behavior of those allegedly connected to the aftermath. What does it mean clinically when someone can allegedly function publicly after extreme violence? What drove Neo Langston from silence to fleeing to eventual cooperation and public hostility toward Burke? What is actually happening inside a family that fights to avoid testifying about their own child's alleged actions?

Scott is the author of The Minds of Mass Killers and brings three decades of forensic and clinical experience to every question. This is the installment that examines not just what allegedly happened — but what the behavior afterward reveals about the people involved.
