Dr. Dorothy Lewis, a professor of psychiatry at NYU Medical School, says that while most damaged individuals do not transform into killers, practically every killer is a damaged person. She reasons that most murders are formed by the combination of harm to the brain, particularly to the frontal lobes, which control hostility and impulsiveness, and the even more complex damage visited by repeated, violent child abuse (mansnerus).
Given that serial killers are only a small fraction of the population and that when they are caught they are either executed or left to live out their lives in a maximum security penitentiary, access to their brain is exceptionally constrained. As I would like to think, this makes their brain considerably all the more
