Getting unknown Segmentation Fault "(address) in std::__cxx11::basic_string

I'm making a program in c++ that represents a forum which has those classes and structs:

struct Date{            /* struct used to get a random day for each comment */
    int d,m,y,h,min;
    Date();
    void GetDate() const;
};

class Post{
  private:
    std::string Title;
    std::string Creator;
    std::string text;
    Date PostDate;
    int id;
  public:
    Post();
    ~Post();
    void postprint() const;
    int idprint();
    std::string get_creator() const; //returns the creator of the post
};

class Thread{
  private:
    std::string Subject;
    std::string Creator;
    Date ThreadDate;
    int post_nums = rand()%10+1;   // this will be the number of posts that will be made in the thread, used in threadprint()
    Post *posts = new Post[post_nums]; //so the randomizer doesn't return 0 array cells, max 10 posts for each thread
  public:
    Thread();
    ~Thread();
    std::string subjprint() const;
    void threadprint() const;
    int getnums() const; //returns the number of posts in the posts array
    Post *getposts() const; //returns to a pointer the array of posts
};

class Forum{
  private:
    std::string Title;
    Thread *threads = new Thread[3];
    //void printt(int) const;
  public:
    Forum(const std::string);
    ~Forum();
    void Print_threads() const;
    void Print_specified_thread(const std::string);
    Thread *Find_thread_subject(const std::string);
    void Print_specified_post(const int);
    Post *Find_specified_post(const int);
};

struct Post_list{
  Post *post;
  Post_list *next;
  Post_list *prev;
};

struct Tree_node{
  std::string Creator;
  Post_list *list_ptr;
  Tree_node *left;
  Tree_node *right;
};

class Thread_tree{
  private:
    Tree_node *node_root;
    void Tree_create(Tree_node *);
    int Tree_empty(Tree_node *);
    void Tree_sort(const Thread *, Tree_node *);
    void Tree_insert(const std::string, Tree_node *);
  public:
    Thread_tree(const Thread *);
};

Now I am trying to put the creators of the comments of each Thread into a BST, sorting them out, where each node struct Tree_node has a creator string and his comments on a list.The constructor of class Thread_tree is something like this

Thread_tree::Thread_tree(const Thread *Thread1){  //constructor only to be called once
  cout << "Creating tree of post creators from thread " << Thread1->subjprint() << endl;
  Tree_create(this->node_root); //points root to NULL
  Tree_sort(Thread1, this->node_root);
}

while Tree_sort() is

void Thread_tree::Tree_sort(const Thread *Thread1, Tree_node *root){
  int k = Thread1->getnums(); //k is assigned to the number of the posts that the thread has
  Post *post_ptr = Thread1->getposts(); //ptr is assigned to the posts array of the thread
  for (int i=0; i<k; i++){
    cout << "\ni is " << i << endl;
    Tree_insert((post_ptr+i)->get_creator(), root);
  }
}

and Tree_insert()

void Thread_tree::Tree_insert(const string creator, Tree_node *root){
  if (Tree_empty(root)){
    root = new Tree_node;
    root->Creator = creator;
    root->list_ptr = NULL;
    root->left = NULL;
    root->right = NULL;
  }
  else if (creator.compare(root->Creator) < 0){ //creator in string1 is smaller than the root->Creator
        Tree_insert(creator, (root->left));    // in ascending order

      }
   if (creator.compare(root->Creator) > 0) {//creator in string1 is bigger than the root->Creator
        Tree_insert(creator, (root->right));   //in ascending order
      }
}

In main() when I make a tree Thread_tree Tree1(thread); with 'thread' being a pointer pointing to an existing thread, I get a segmentation fault. I run the gdb debugger and after using bt I get this message:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

#5  0x0000000000402f03 in main () at main.cpp:19

I can't understand what the problem is, as from what I understand from the message, the program crushes at the second call of Tree_insert()
