most serial killers are motivated by power that's at the core of everything and its control over life and death it's
00:00:12
an enjoyment of victims sufferings and oftentimes there is an intermingling a blending of sexual drives with the power
00:00:22
needs so circulars typically will have a preferred victim that under ideal circumstances for them
00:00:30
meaning opportunity that they would select but the fact that he's choosing people close by that's convenient
00:00:37
it also lessens the chances that he's going to be caught in some ways because he's got a reason for being there in the
00:00:44
neighborhood the risk factor for him on the other side though is police are naturally going to look close by
00:00:52
surveilling and stalking a victim and repeated visits before the actual offense of killing the victim serves a
00:01:01
lot of needs that the offender may have he may imagine that he has a relationship with the victim
00:01:07
he may be envisioning scenarios while he's out there watching and coveting them he may also be getting the thrill
00:01:15
of the hunt and getting away with this the transition from watching to actually implementing those violent fantasies is
00:01:25
often based upon the fact that just simply fantasizing isn't good enough anymore
00:01:31
the cooling-off period is very much the offender regrouping he's gonna be figuring out what he liked about it what
00:01:40
was frustrating what was scary if he almost got caught how he can avoid that and so you will find that in that
00:01:50
cooling-off period they will be thinking about how it can be better
