I recently read an online entitled ‘How to spot a serial killer – Five key traits’. The traits were: A power junkie A manipulator An egotistical bragger A superficial charmer An average Joe It struck me that these traits are the same traits often seen in perpetrators of domestic abuse. The Freedom Programme covers all of these, albeit named slightly differently, their meaning is the same. I have often wondered how many people who are abusive to their partners, go on to be serial killers? Yes, I know it is not particularly a light-hearted thing to think about but when you do the job I do, there is a temptation to look at everyone and wonder if they are a perpetrator Although I honestly do try to resist that temptation!
