Aww Moiraine, can't we? Pweese?

Seriously, I know some things that definitely can cause this.

A) Drug abuse, especially "heavy" drugs such as LSD and alcohol. If they destroy the right, or in this case wrong, part of the brain control over instincts is lost. And after all, humans are animals with a killing instinct. Let that instinct rule and you will get a killer.
B) Genetaics. I know at least one gene has been found that promotes violence. I'll see if I can dig up an article about this. It's a quite old finding.
C) Errors during the cerebellar organization. If the brain does not develop correctly there is bound to be errors.

I'm bound to believe that this kinds of humans have some bodily disfunction. Answers will come when we are able to screen the entire human genome for errors. When it comes to environmental factors such as education etc I'm not sure what to believe. Each finding contradicts another.

So perhaps if we disect him and study his brain, perhaps we could come up with new ways to treat such problems?

I don't mind using killers for research. Especially if it helps catch future killers before they commit an atrocity.
