[Nick Nigro speaking]

10
00:01:33,517 --> 00:01:37,689
In the moment, it sounds like
somebody who's scared, somebody who's panicked.

11
00:01:37,724 --> 00:01:39,551
Somebody who is desperate.

12
00:01:39,586 --> 00:01:43,206
<i>And it's what</i>
<i>I think many of us</i> <i>would expect to see and hear</i>

00:01:43,241 --> 00:01:48,034
from someone who has
just come home and found a crime scene.

14
00:01:54,965 --> 00:01:57,758
When I got here
they were taking out the two bodies.

19
00:02:43,103 --> 00:02:44,172
[Nick Nigro] Uh...

20
00:03:00,517 --> 00:03:02,586
This is a 25-year-old
grown adult

21
00:03:02,620 --> 00:03:05,758
who is still living
in his parents' home, doesn't really have a job.

22
00:03:05,793 --> 00:03:08,862
<i>He doesn't have a meaningful</i>
<i>sense of purpose</i> <i>or routine.</i>

23
00:03:08,896 --> 00:03:11,000
So what we see
is this parasitic tendency,

24
00:03:11,034 --> 00:03:13,379
which is absolutely a marker
of psychopathic behavior.

25
00:03:44,551 --> 00:03:48,482
Nigro is really
putting on display this perfect relationship,

26
00:03:48,517 --> 00:03:50,241
<i>giving detectives</i>
<i>what he thinks they want.</i>

<i>This is what we might call</i>
<i>'impression management'.</i>

28

Everything was perfect.

31
00:04:44,724 --> 00:04:47,655
That is not someone
who's experiencing genuine sadness.

32
00:04:47,689 --> 00:04:51,379
He... He didn't have
actual tears coming out.

33
00:04:51,413 --> 00:04:53,551
<i>Psychopaths often</i>
<i>replicate emptions.</i>

34
00:04:53,586 --> 00:04:55,413
<i>They'll try to say</i>
<i>the right thing.</i>

35
00:04:55,448 --> 00:05:00,586
They'll try to do what
they think is the most logical action at a certain time,

36
00:05:00,620 --> 00:05:02,275
uh, to come off as,
as normal.

37
00:05:29,413 --> 00:05:33,103
He's first talking about her
in this perfect relationship,

38
00:05:33,137 --> 00:05:35,724
idolized way.
He switches positions that

39
00:05:35,758 --> 00:05:37,896
she must have been
into something that I didn't know about.

40
00:05:37,931 --> 00:05:43,000
And what we also see
is that Nigro is making this all about himself.

41
00:05:43,034 --> 00:05:46,896
"I have to get to the bottom
of this, I have to figure this out, I'm confused."

42
00:05:46,931 --> 00:05:50,896
It's now about his reaction,
not two dead human beings.

43
00:06:56,137 --> 00:06:59,034
It's a very common sign
of someone who was lying

44
00:06:59,068 --> 00:07:01,965
where they will,
uh, change the narrative

45
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:05,206
and then they'll try
to sprinkle in parts of the truth.

46
00:07:05,241 --> 00:07:08,137
<i>He's saying,</i>
<i>"I have this drug problem.</i> <i>So look there."</i>

47
00:07:08,172 --> 00:07:11,517
And the drug problem
is going to lead you to who did this.

48
00:07:11,551 --> 00:07:13,724
<i>He has a whole</i>
<i>red herring figured out.</i>

49
00:07:13,758 --> 00:07:16,896
He has the whole story planned
for how he wants this to go.

50
00:08:12,448 --> 00:08:14,482
You see an arrogance
that's emerging.

51
00:08:14,517 --> 00:08:17,310
<i>Somebody who thinks</i>
<i>he's clearly smarter</i> <i>than the detectives.</i>

52
00:08:17,344 --> 00:08:19,517
Both detectives pull
at the sweater string,

53
00:08:19,551 --> 00:08:21,448
and then things start
to come unraveled.

54
00:08:21,482 --> 00:08:24,137
Because individuals
who are psychopathic

55
00:08:24,172 --> 00:08:28,137
<i>and have an unhealthy level</i>
<i>of narcissism or arrogance</i>

56
00:08:28,172 --> 00:08:29,793
<i>can't resist taking that bait.</i>

57
00:08:30,793 --> 00:08:32,413
<i>He, like most psychopaths,</i>

58
00:08:32,448 --> 00:08:34,965
often feel like
they're the most clever person in the room.

59
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:38,310
They often feel as though
no one can trick them,

60
00:08:38,344 --> 00:08:42,827
and they have the skill
to get what they want out of the world

61
00:08:42,862 --> 00:08:46,241
by, by manipulating them
and tricking them.

62
00:09:24,896 --> 00:09:29,206
You can hear the escalation
in his voice when he's emotional here.

63
00:09:29,241 --> 00:09:33,000
<i>He's so upset that</i>
<i>they did not buy his story.</i>

64
00:09:33,034 --> 00:09:36,896
And I think there you can
actually see genuine emotion coming out of him.

65
00:09:36,931 --> 00:09:39,758
But it's just not for
the reason that you would expect.

66
00:09:58,896 --> 00:10:00,689
[Jonathan Deright]
<i>I hear him snapping.</i>

67
00:10:00,724 --> 00:10:03,241
He's saying these statements
that he's doing it mockingly.

68
00:10:03,275 --> 00:10:07,068
But, but it's an easier way
to, to try to, um,

69
00:10:07,103 --> 00:10:09,241
make it come across
as, as truthful.

70
00:10:35,068 --> 00:10:37,413
Detectives have tried a bunch
of different strategies

71
00:10:37,448 --> 00:10:41,586
and they might just have
finally hit on one that was motivating to him.

72
00:10:41,620 --> 00:10:45,413
And it's likely about
Nigro saving face with his own parents,

73
00:10:45,448 --> 00:10:46,965
<i>and with his younger brother.</i>

74
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:48,655
<i>"They're gonna turn</i>
<i>their back on me.</i> <i>And they're gonna move on."</i>

75
00:10:48,689 --> 00:10:51,206
<i>And, "I know how I look</i>
<i>to other people."</i>

76
00:10:51,241 --> 00:10:54,000
So it's manipulative
in its own right, and it's self-serving.

[bleeping]

78
00:11:42,137 --> 00:11:45,413

straight at the camera and pauses,

00:11:45,448 --> 00:11:47,379
<i>we realize that</i>
<i>this is all an act.</i>

<i>room watching,</i>

[bleeping]

84
00:12:10,827 --> 00:12:12,517
He's very angry

85
00:12:12,551 --> 00:12:17,965
that his attempts to control
the whole situation is subverted.

86
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:21,655
And he's not able to keep
his family out of this.

87
00:12:21,689 --> 00:12:23,482
<i>So he has his back</i>
<i>against the wall.</i>

88
00:12:23,517 --> 00:12:26,000
He tries to change tact again.

89
00:12:52,517 --> 00:12:53,379
[detective 1] Well...

90
00:13:28,551 --> 00:13:31,724
Nigro's attitude is,
he's doing them a favor.

91
00:13:31,758 --> 00:13:35,689
<i>I think it's still his attempt</i>
<i>to try and stay in a position</i> <i>of power.</i>

92
00:13:35,724 --> 00:13:38,103
He's trying to control
the narrative.

93
00:13:38,137 --> 00:13:41,241
Part of the manipulation
may be that he's hoping for leniency.

94
00:13:41,275 --> 00:13:43,103
<i>He's hoping if he gives them</i>
<i>what they want,</i>

95
00:13:43,137 --> 00:13:45,517
<i>they'll back out of</i>
<i>throwing the book at him.</i>

96
00:13:45,551 --> 00:13:48,517
But what he also wants
is for his family to be pulled out of this.

97
00:14:06,310 --> 00:14:07,724
I wanted her to-- Yeah.

98
00:14:33,034 --> 00:14:36,206
It's clear from the way
he talks about his rage

99
00:14:36,241 --> 00:14:37,793
that he feels emasculated.

100
00:14:37,827 --> 00:14:41,034
So this starts to move us
away from impulsivity

101
00:14:41,068 --> 00:14:44,068
and more towards giving into
the impulsive rage.

102
00:14:44,103 --> 00:14:48,482
Majority of us may have urges
at times to hurt someone or have them feel pain.

103
00:14:48,517 --> 00:14:50,793
<i>But we have enough</i>
<i>internal regulation.</i>

104
00:14:50,827 --> 00:14:52,517
Psychopaths don't
have that regulator.

105
00:15:13,034 --> 00:15:14,172
[detective 2] Um...

106
00:15:52,655 --> 00:15:56,241
He's talking about it
almost like they're not real people, they're puppets.

107
00:15:56,275 --> 00:15:58,793
And that lack of emotion,
that lack of connectedness

108
00:15:58,827 --> 00:16:01,827
to somebody that he was
prepared to marry and live with

109
00:16:01,862 --> 00:16:06,068
really highlights that lack
of emotional experience.

110
00:16:55,724 --> 00:16:59,241
He really has
this mentality of 'it's me against the world.'

111
00:16:59,275 --> 00:17:02,000
We see that a lot
in psychopaths.

112
00:17:02,034 --> 00:17:04,482
<i>Uh, he's really tried</i>
<i>to make himself believe,</i>

113
00:17:04,517 --> 00:17:07,413
if I wouldn't have done this,
she would've done it to me.

114
00:17:07,448 --> 00:17:09,034
I had to protect myself.

115
00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:41,000
[siren wailing]

116
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:53,517
Nigro is telling us
that he's not sadistic,

117
00:18:53,551 --> 00:18:58,379
and yet, he's also told us
that he deliberately chose to kill her mother first

118
00:18:58,413 --> 00:19:01,862
so that his girlfriend
would be aware that her mother was being killed,

119
00:19:01,896 --> 00:19:04,241
which is nothing short
of a sadistic act.

120
00:19:28,482 --> 00:19:31,448
He really portrays himself
as a victim of women.

121
00:19:31,482 --> 00:19:34,137
When really, he was the one
victimizing women.

122
00:19:34,172 --> 00:19:37,206
<i>I think that what</i>
<i>we're all thinking when</i> <i>he's saying that is,</i>

123
00:19:37,241 --> 00:19:38,793
he says,
"I created a monster."

124
00:19:38,827 --> 00:19:41,241
And the natural
progression is,

125
00:19:41,275 --> 00:19:44,413
"Are you talking about
a monster in you, or in her?"

126
00:19:47,655 --> 00:19:49,517
Years of relationship.

127
00:19:49,551 --> 00:19:50,931
Yeah. Yeah.

128
00:20:22,068 --> 00:20:23,965
[Nameeta Sahni]
<i>Nigro understands he tried</i>

129
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:25,862
<i>to give a narrative</i>
<i>that wasn't believed.</i>

130
00:20:25,896 --> 00:20:27,586
He's accepting his fate.

131
00:20:27,620 --> 00:20:29,793
And because people
are dispensable to him,

132
00:20:29,827 --> 00:20:31,620
he's projecting that onto
his mother and brother.

133
00:20:31,655 --> 00:20:33,310
<i>They're gonna</i>
<i>turn their back on me.</i>

134
00:20:33,344 --> 00:20:36,275
I think at this point
what we're seeing is somebody who's accepting his reality.
