So the book I am currently reading is “The Psychology of Criminal behaviour and Violence” and I am on the chapter on Personality. The case I am currently on right now is about a girl who offed many men due to her lack of empathy.

“As a result of these perceptions, she lived in constant fear of being abandoned, abused, and betrayed. The coping strategy that she adopted was to detach herself from her own emotions and those of the people around her.”

The perceptions being mentioned is the lack of a relationship with her parents and the abuse she suffered from her grandparents. I believe she turned out to be a criminal because of the nature of her childhood and the trauma that also played a big part.
