a hillside in Ansan, Gyeonggi-do, serial killer Kang Ho-soon said there was a kennel where dogs were caught and sold from 2004 to 2006.

Today (16th) we are going to talk about the relationship between cruel animal cruelty and serial killers.



Of course, not all cruelty to animals leads to murder, but we cannot conclude that there is no relationship.



Let's look at the FBI analysis first.



When the FBI analyzed 387 murders in the past, they found a common point: serial killers went through a period of training against powerless small animals before committing a crime.



The FBI has classified animal cruelty as an antisocial crime for the past five years, and has been working on statistics by classifying it into four categories: animal neglect, torture, genocide, and sexual abuse.



The goal is to prevent the possibility that crimes against animals may lead to crimes against people in advance.



In short, animal cruelty may be a precursor to violent crime.



Another serial killer, Yoo Yeong-cheol, was found to have practiced with animals before his first murder, according to the verdict.

Of course, not all cruelty to animals leads to crimes against people.



But given the recent surge in cruelty to animals that are beyond news, it seems clear that we need to pay more attention to these signs.
