What's Next?

So I was reading an interesting article this morning (well, it was less of an article and more of an information sheet) but it was all about the back story of some famous psychopaths. People like Leonard Fraser, Raymond Garland and Robert John Fardon who were proved to be legitimate psychopaths and put away.

But what really got me thinking was Leonard Fraser's background. He was sentenced to twenty years in prison in the 70s for being a serial rapist, but as soon as he got out he strolled through his new neighbourhood, automatically getting the attention of the policemen in the area. He poked his head through their car window and asked them what the women were like around there. That man had guts; to be able to walk up to the people who represented the very institution that had kept you caged and trapped for a full twenty years, only to pretty much let them know that you were up to your old tricks takes a courage that is considered to be unnatural. However, in Fraser's case it is not considered as courage. This 'bravery', coupled with his complete lack of respect for women, creates the beginning of a psychopath. His rapist stature increased to murderer in 2000 when he was found guilty of the murder of three women. The strangely curious thing was when they convicted him, he yawned and shrugged. Yawned. And shrugged. He had spent most of his adolescent years in prison due to the fact he raped women habitually, then got let out and murdered another three women and sentenced to the rest of his life in that same prison, only to treat it as another day.

Most people would see Fraser as a loony. A freak. A murderer. A madman. However, I see his actions as that of a good crime novel's main villain. What he did was something I would find on a murder mystery television series. I would be very interested in reading the case notes and the court transcript, just to find out his reactions in certain situations. I, being desenistised to this sort of violence due to the books I read/write, consider this as something I could write into a best seller. I'm still unaware as to whether this is a bad thing or not ...

Anyway, I found it interesting.
