For sure, SINSULL. These are usually cases of people who have, for some reason either wholly or partially unknown to others, reached a point of total and absolute desperation. In that extremely disturbed state of mind they kill their children, their spouse or someone else.
It could happen to anyone, in my opinion, although it doesn't happen to most people.
That's why I do not set about trying to judge such people after the fact, nor do I wish them to be tortured in some fanciful hell...because it's abundantly clear to me that they were already experiencing a personal hell of some kind anyway.
What good does it do for me or anyone else to go into a frenzy of revengeful thinking against such a person? Isn't that a bit like what they themselves just did against whoever they killed?
