MY REVIEW

This was like watching your favorite crime movie with the exception, this was real. They broke down each famous criminal and the crime they committed. It was watching the history of criminals all the way back to Al Capone. It's not that you went inside the criminals mind but you heard the opinions of medical professional give medical explanations of why people do bad things and why they act out fantasies or become what the are. These range from a imbalance in the brain to sexual abuse or  Parental/adult abuse. Bottom line is all this criminals had a passion to big something bigger then they where no matter who stood in the way with out and any reguard for the written laws of the land or the authority of law enforcement.
