I know that people who have undetected brain tumors can act out of rage, mentally ill can commit homicide but not necessarily know they are doing it. People with undetected mental illness, emotional instability, sociopathy and psychopathy could commit homicide due to their illness. Not all people who commit homicide have a physiological problem. Think about it. What are the most common reasons for people killing others? Greed, jealousy, hatred, fear, self-defense, money, sex and a lot of other reasons.
