4. Objective: How a person was treated as a child can easily determine what that person
will become in the future. This is the root cause of most serial killers. This is not done
voluntarily, so serial killers should not be categorized as being of no use to them. The part of
the brain that distinguishes between good and bad is diminishing. It should be a known fact
that studies of serial killers have shown that they had mental trauma since childhood that
made them this way. There is no way to change the feelings from this trauma. So, society
should understand their situation and stop equating them with monsters. The goal of my
report is
1. To compare the thinking way of a normal human and a serial killer
2. To analyse the brain of a serial killer
3. If there were any serial killers in Sri Lanka and how many people in Sri Lanka are
aware of such a person.
