Why Did Three People Help the Quadruple Murder Suspect Austin Drummond HIDE?

Why Did Three People Help the Quadruple Murder Suspect Austin Drummond HIDE? After four people were found dead in Lake County, Tennessee, and a baby was abandoned in a stranger’s yard, authorities launched a manhunt for Austin Robert Drummond. But Drummond wasn’t hiding alone. Prosecutors say three people — Tanaka Brown, Dearrah Sanders, and Giovonte Thomas — helped him along the way. They allegedly gave him shelter, clothing, phones, and rides, keeping him ahead of police for days. Each now faces their own charges for aiding a fugitive. But here’s the question: did they believe his bizarre FBI informant story? Or were they simply protecting a fugitive no matter what? In this segment, retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke joins Tony Brueski to break down the psychology of accomplices. Robin explains how manipulation works, how people with chaotic personal histories can still recruit others to their cause, and why loyalty, fear, or desperation can override common sense. Were these three co-conspirators? Or were they victims of manipulation themselves — convinced by Drummond’s narrative that they were helping someone on a covert mission? Robin explores both sides and exposes how violence radiates outward, pulling people into the destruction long after the crime itself is committed. Watch as we dissect the accomplice angle, and uncover what it tells us about Drummond’s power to manipulate, deceive, and control those around him. #AustinDrummond #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #RobinDreeke #CourtCase #MurderCase #CrimeAnalysis #Accomplices #DeathPenalty #TrueCrimeCommunity Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
