A boatload. Many of them have fetishes with violence and death (this includes canabalism, necrophilia, pedophilia, gerontophilia, incest, physical assault and many others). Lots of them grew up in dyfunctional homes, so to say that they have "psychological problems" is a huge understatement. They're called psychopaths for a reason.
