I just don't understand the demented criminal mind. I cannot imagine taking pleasure in doing harm to other people. I don't consider myself sheltered, but compared to what LEO's have to rub up against every day, I am definitely sheltered. It's truly, truly sad that this vermin wore the uniform of law enforcement.
People of course are not born bad or as a "criminal" if you ask a psychiatrist why people end up like this. They will most likely respond its "Due To Social and Economic Problems". Unless the person is born a true Psychopath but that's like only 1% of the population. Evil is all around us, we must stay paranoid to just survive nowadays.

I disagree with this (in part). While I certainly understand and agree that Social Aspects (environment and how you were raised) influences our behavior...I am equally convinced that other components are at play as well.
I've been on this Earth 65 years now and have witnessed my share of nonsensical/unexplained acts by the Human Race. And I can assure you 'psychiatrists' DON'T have all the answers.
It is my belief that quite aside from our 'environment' (Social, Economic, etc) that
each of us is born somewhat 'pre-wired'.
What I mean by that is a predisposition for intelligence, love (or lack of), patience (or lack of), humility (or lack of)...etc. Perhaps these are inherited 'traits' and I've seen these things skip generations or even one person to another in the case of siblings, so I have no biological answer for it.
But I can tell you without doubt...there exists such a thing as a 'Bad Seed'.
And for their entire live's these 'Bad Seeds' will make mistake after mistake...never seeming to learn. No matter what opportunity you provide them, no matter their upbringing (can be the same as others around them) they will manage to do the wrong thing. I would love for a psychiatrist to explain that one.
Now I don't mean to suggest that any person's life is 'predestined'...but I do subscribe to the thought that each of us hits the ground wired a certain way. Predisposed if you will, and whether that is good or bad...it will take a LOT of external influence to change that individuals tendencies.
