Evil In Devil's Den: The Andrew McGann Case3 Aug 2025

How Will The Children Survivors Of The Devil’s Den Tragedy Find Healing After Trauma

In this emotional and clinically grounded episode, psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins Tony Brueski to explore the long road ahead for the two young girls who survived the horrific double homicide at Devil’s Den State Park. After witnessing the brutal murder of their parents—Clinton and Cristen Brink—these children are now left to navigate trauma most adults can’t begin to process.

Shavaun breaks down what happens to a child's brain in the aftermath of violent trauma, from recurring nightmares to hypervigilance and survivor’s guilt. This is not a pain they’ll just “grow out of”—it’s a neurological and psychological injury that will shape their development, behavior, and relationships unless properly treated with trauma-informed therapy.

We talk about what recovery could look like, the types of therapy that may help, and the role of their new guardians in helping them feel safe again. This episode is a must-watch for anyone who’s asked, “How do you begin to rebuild a life after witnessing something like that?”

This isn’t just about true crime—it’s about survival, healing, and the kind of community support it takes to carry that weight.
