Best Answer

He develops psychopathic behavior due to stress and abuse. His mind lacked the control mechanisms necessary to balance the decision to kill with the appropriate time, place, and reason to do so. In Freudian terms, he lacked a "superego," and was ruled by his "id."

In Jungian terms, he had been completely conditioned as a killer, with no attention paid to his humanity; his compassion had been stripped away from his particular chain of abuse.
