It has also been observed that there is no reason for committing the crime most of the time unless for the pure joy of doing it and sometimes for sexual gratification. If one is to go into the darkness of what these shrouded motives were, one would have to delve in to the past of the killer who committed the crime and take a good look into the features that it boasts to get a few clues there.

A study in to the past of most serial killers shows that they had issues that were either abuse (both sexual and physical), alcohol related or drugs related. The result of these childhood experiences has resulted in traits in them such as strong resentment suggesting that they have been deemed failures by the society, bipolar mode disorders, frustration (particularly that which is sexual in nature), parents that were way too protective and a fantastical world among other things.

These traits resulted in behavior most strongly characterized by masturbation (compulsive), isolation and day dreaming. The day dreaming is a friend of the tendency to be in isolation. It allows him to create his own world around him as and how he pleases so that the isolation doesn’t get to him. This is a result in anyone who is kept in isolation for a long period of time and should be no different in serial killers.
