I don't understand how studying them can only be at the victim's expense, can you explain please?

Of course not all murderers boast but then not all murderers have such twisted minds. There are however cases where the murderer showed signs of their twisted minds prior to their crime; if we could learn to recognise these signs we could prevent murders by those of a similar lik.

I quite clearly explained about the do gooders who allow through their study & understanding which goes quite some way in the release of these objects!

I'm sure studying and understanding does not have to involve release!

If you read through the board you will see the poster who said these things & it's clearly publicised about such cases.

Yes there are too many cases where people have murdered again after release, but I am not advocating release, just efforts to understand. Efforts that may lead to future prevention in other cases.

In an ideal world we would be able to spot these misfits, we neither live in an ideal world nor do we have enough knowledge of the human mind nor the capabilities to fathom the criminally insane,

Which is precisely why we need to study them!

no amount of study & understanding will prevent other like minded people from achieving their goal!!

I disagree; if people had taken notice of his behaviour I believe the possible outcome could have been pre-empted and perhaps stopped! He could perhaps have been recieving support in a mental institution having committed no crime rather than the circumstances we now have. Instead of a victim and murderer perhaps we could have had neither!
