Robert Telles, The Textbook Definition Of Narcissistic Personality Disorder

FBI Unscripted | Real Agents On Real Crime

In the podcast "Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski," retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke joins the conversation to discuss the peculiar and self-sabotaging testimony of Robert Telles, who is on trial for the murder of journalist Jeff German. Dreeke highlights Telles' narcissistic behavior as he takes the stand, focusing more on his personal narrative and opinions rather than addressing the damning evidence against him. Telles' testimony, filled with irrelevant details and self-centered remarks, such as his unusual healing process and ownership of three cars, only serves to alienate the jury and detract from any credible defense. Dreeke points out that Telles' behavior, marked by a superiority complex and lack of authenticity, is not only ineffective but potentially damaging to his case. The conversation underscores the significance of likability and genuine remorse in court, elements that Telles seems to completely lack, making his testimony more of a spectacle than a serious defense.
**Key Points:**
- Robert Telles’ testimony is marked by self-centeredness and irrelevant details, making him unlikable to the jury.
- Telles displays extreme narcissism, believing his opinions should hold as much weight as expert testimony.
- His defense attorney appears to allow him to testify despite the damaging nature of his narrative, possibly recognizing the futility of his case.
- Telles’ testimony fails to address key evidence and instead focuses on trivial matters, further undermining his credibility.
- Dreeke emphasizes that Telles' approach is a textbook example of what not to do when testifying in one's defense.
- The discussion highlights the importance of authenticity, likability, and addressing the core issues in court, all of which Telles fails to do.
- Dreeke suggests that Telles may have convinced himself of his own innocence, despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary.
