no most were all psychopaths or sociopaths but all of those who weren't were not famous. also the serial killers killed for a specific reason mostly related to a psychopathic or sociopaths disease.
There are 1 in 100. Not all are serial killers but many are white collar sociopaths or psychopaths. These cheat people out of money, are dishonest, and don't think they are wrong in what they do.
Probably, but just to point out that being a psychopath doesn't mean you have the urge to kill, it just means you don't have the same range of emotions (if any) as "regular" people, which i guess makes it easier to kill. I like to think that most politicians are psychopaths
Contrary to what many people believe, most serial killers are not 'insane'. This of course does not mean they are normal, they aren't. Serial killers, with few exceptions, are not suffering from this kind of mental illness. They are usually clear headed and calculating. They try to keep mistakes to a minimum because if they don't they are bound to be caught. Someone with a psychosis has enough to deal with just getting through the day. They seldom have the capacity to consistantly scheme and plot serial murder. There are always exceptions to every rule but the majority are calm and and paying strict attention to details.
Most of the serial killers that had a successful career killing, were functional psychopaths meaning that they could go with daily life like anyone else and some of them had family like normal persons.
Japan gave the serial killers hitory with 12 serial killers to date.
There is no patron saint specifically for serial killers. Saints are typically recognized for their holiness and virtue, so it is unlikely that a saint would be designated for individuals who commit heinous crimes.
Yes. A psychopath is not necessarily a criminal. They lack empathy though. A psychopath does have the ability to control their behavior, unlike a person with something such as antisocial personality disorder. Psychopaths tend to be extremely intelligent and thus can put there intelligence to good use. The only reason that psychopaths have a bad rap is due to the fact that many serial killers are diagnosed as psychopaths.
Yes, most serial killers are male.
