Dark Matters Episode 23 Most burglars want to enter an empty home, take what they can, and leave without ever being seen. Why, then, do some intruders deliberately target occupied homes in the dead of night? In this episode of Dark Matters, Dr. Eric Hickey examines the psychology of "hot burglaries"—break-ins driven not by theft, but by power, voyeurism, and sexual fantasy. Drawing from his own experience interviewing a 19-year-old offender, Dr. Hickey traces how childhood trauma and unchecked behavioral red flags can escalate from window peeping to crossing the threshold of a stranger's home. ________________________________<br...
