Many studies have been done on the psychology of those that have a compulsion to kill. The evidence seems to suggest that it could be classified as a deadly compulsion which could be identified with child molestation and other addictive anti-social behaviors. What do you thin? Is someone hardwired to kill and kill certain victims?

Re: Is Serial Killing a type of pathology?

Re: Is Serial Killing a type of pathology?
Mon, March 5, 2007 - 9:31 AMI am from the PNW where we specialize in serial killers. My mother knew Ted Bundy's mother and said she was a prim woman and very nice. My aunt was best friends with the Green River Killers first wife and said he was abusive. I believe it could be an attachment disorder.
