The Importance Of Serial Killers

Decent Essays
For the greater part of us, killing a man is inconceivable. It takes an incredible level of inspiration and determination to at last draw the trigger, realizing that the one doing this is going to watch until the victim’s blood drain out. That last demonstration of rebellion needs to defeat a mental obstacle that keeps all of us from going out and slaughtering individuals. Furthermore, once that has been succeed, it is less demanding to do it the second time. That is the reason serial executioners are frequently the most merciless criminals. For most killers, killing for the second time is less demanding than killing the first run

    My view is that serial killers can’t be rehabilitated, killers such as Holmes, Bundy, Dahmer, etc. cannot change and cannot be rehabilitated into normal society. There has been many studies that research on new methods to help and prevent serial killers (psychopaths) from their behavior. Many of the serial killers know how to play the role once they are in prison, and we know that once they are in prison they aren’t coming back out, so why waste resources on killers who are irredeemable.
