What Makes A Serial Killer-Response Essay This essay is written by La Donna Beaty. There is no definite reason what makes a serial killer. Beaty uses this to her advantage by providing several speculations. She begins by trying to capture the readers attention with rhetorical questions. Many of the theories she provide suggest that becoming a serial killer is largely impacted by childhood. She also covers the impact of deinstitutionalization of the mental health care system. Beaty then discusses biological research that may give some insight. Beaty is very good at covering the topic without stating her own personal feelings. Instead, she shares grisly stories that can make most people shudder.
