97. Belt Selfie: Why don鈥檛 people kill their friends?
A woman has been strangled by a belt. A selfie posted online helps police investigate. How does the divide between teens鈥� online and offline lives affect their mental health?
In 2015 a woman in Saskatoon was strangled by a belt. Did her friend do it?
She has been strangled by a belt that lies next to her body - the same belt her best friend was wearing in a photograph of the two of them that was posted on Facebook earlier that evening. What can really be learned by what we choose to post online? And what might cause a friendship to take a violent turn?
On this episode of Bad People, Dr Julia Shaw and Sofie Hagen explore the psychology of 鈥渂reaking up鈥� with friends, the role of social media for teens鈥� mental health, and why people so rarely murder their friends.
