Psychology of Serial Killers Scott Bonn Part 1
Dr. Scott Bonn is a criminologist, podcast host, TV commentator, public speaker, and author of the best-selling popular culture book Why We Love Serial Killers: The Curious Appeal of the World’s Most Savage Murderers. He provides expert commentary and analysis for a number of high-profile true crime TV shows and documentaries on A&E, Discovery Network, Oxygen, Investigation Discovery, and Travel Channel.
Serial killers have long captivated the public's imagination, leaving us engrossed in the dark recesses of their twisted minds. In this episode of All Things Crime, Jared Bradley is joined by criminologist and serial killer expert, Dr. Scott Bonn, to unpack the psychology behind these disturbing individuals.
Contrary to popular belief, the majority of serial killers are not mentally ill but rather fall into the categories of psychopath or sociopath, which are characterized by antisocial personality disorders. Psychopaths, unlike sociopaths, lack the ability to feel a normal range of emotions and empathy. Their unflappable nature makes them particularly dangerous and difficult to identify.
Drawing from real-life cases, the episode explores the chilling similarities between a high-profile coworker currently facing trial for mass murder and notorious serial killer Dennis Rader, also known as BTK. Both individuals share backgrounds in criminal justice, a propensity for stalking, and a fixation on targeting women.
Delving deeper into the topic, Dr. Scott also sheds light on the various motivations that drive serial killers. Ranging from sexual gratification to missions and responses to perceived higher powers or authorities, these individuals operate on psychological and visceral hunger rather than typical emotions associated with homicide. They exhibit a calculated approach, carefully planning their crimes and demonstrating a cooling-off period between killings.
Ultimately, this episode offers listeners a fascinating glimpse into the minds of serial killers. By understanding the psychological factors at play, we gain valuable insight into their motivations and behaviors.
Takeaways
1. Most serial killers have antisocial disorders.
2. Serial killers act on self-desire.
3. Knowing the killer's motives can prevent violence.
