We can never truly understand what goes through the mind of a murderer, for some it is a moment of insanity in which they cannot explain the event or their feelings towards the act in any manner that makes sense to the system or the potential psychiatrist who wishes to probe into the complexity of the situation; for others it is a marker, of dominance, of power, of holding a life in the grip of their hands and understanding full well the implications of their actions, and the possible thrill they get as they watch from a close enough distance their act being investigated.
