Police are conducting a psychopath test on Kim Tae-hyun, who is accused of murdering three mothers and daughters in an apartment in Nowon-gu, Seoul.
The Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency is analyzing Kim Tae-hyun's psychopathic propensity based on the statements obtained by four crime analysts investigating Kim Tae-hyun and the way he committed the crime.
Psychopath, interpreted as a person with antisocial personality disorder, is a term that often appears when a'don't ask murder' case occurs, and the police have a checklist to determine whether it is a psychopath.
A total score of 25 or more is classified as a psychopath, but it is said that Cho Doo-soon, a child sex offender, received 29 points.
Serial killers Kang Ho-soon and Lee Chun-jae were also evaluated as psychopaths.
The police decided to provide the results of Kim Tae-hyun's psychopath analysis to the prosecution.
