‘The evil stupidity that created him.’ That is a line from a crime fiction book of Caleb Carr and he was referring to stupid parents. And I bet you know or met one psycho or serial killer without even knowing it.
‘The “Serial Killer Profile” concept was first unveiled in 1984 by FBI agent Robert Ressler in an address to the International Assoc. of Forensic Sciences. Ressler is credited with first using the term “Serial Killer”.
Ressler & the Serial Killer Profile.
‘Ressler told the International Assoc. of Forensic Sciences that many serial killers displayed a history of a troubled childhood which resulted in characteristics such as:
came from a dysfunctional family
were abused mentally, physically or sexually
often were abandoned by father, raised by domineering mothers
did poorly at school
usually hated their parents
over 60% wet their beds past 12 years of age
displayed a fascination with fire & destruction
practised sadistic torture of animals
often developed an early interest in porn
developed early psychiatric problems
had spent time in institutions…’
Noticed that four of those points (boldened) relates to parents?

The Mystery of A Medical Student’s Arctic Adventure
That is included in Arthur Conan Doyle‘s diary which is to be published
‘On Sunday 4 April 1880, a young medical student called Arthur Conan Doyle was wrestling with a two-iceberg rather than a two-pipe problem: he had yet again fallen overboard from a whaler called the Hope, into the icy Arctic. “I fell into the Arctic Ocean three times today, but luckily someone was always near to pull me out,” the 20-year-old Doyle wrote. “The danger in falling in is that with a heavy swell on as there is now, you may be cut in two pretty well by two pieces of ice coming together and nipping you. I got several drags, but was laid up in the evening as all my clothes were in the engine room drying … after skinning a seal today I walked away with the two hind flippers in my hand, leaving my mittens on the ice.”
‘Doyle’s illustrated journal, a rip-roaring account of his adventures as ship’s doctor on the Arctic whaler Hope – for which he ran away for most of a year from his medical studies in Edinburgh – is to be published for the first time by the British Library, in a facsimile edition…’
