Some of the shared traits in serial killers are interesting. Like, 70% suffered from severe head trauma as children.

And abuse is quite common as well. "For serial killers, the prevalence of
physical abuse was 36%; sexual abuse was 26%; and psychological abuse was 50%."

Are you a My Favorite Murder fan? That's the first place I heard about the head trauma thing.

I am not but I am definitely going to add it to my list! I heard it from Last Podcast on the Left.

The head trauma thing reminds me of a story I saw once about Charles Whitman, who went on a shooting spree at a university in Austin, Texas in the 1960s.

Before he committed his crimes, he wrote a LOT of letters, and he talked in some of them about wanting his brain to be examined after his death, because he was certain there was something mentally wrong with him.

After his death, it was revealed that there was a brain tumor on a certain part of his brain. Apparently, a study of serial killers' brains shows that many of them have some form of damage in the exact same part of the brain that Whitman's tumor was in.

Yes! That is such a crazy story.
