Stanford esteemed professor, Robert Sapolsky, would argue that free will doesn’t exist and a person who becomes a murderer is not responsible for how he/she acts.
The Brian can be broken via trauma or mental illnesses. I think most healthy individuals have a sense of empathy for their fellow neighbor. I do also believe that Satan can possess some individuals .
Either way, there are usually warning signs that bizarre behavior can occur with a potential serial killer. Maybe more mental hospitals need to be funded. Not sure how you keep these potential monsters off the street without violating their rights.

His interview with Skeptic Magazine's Michael Shermer was really fascinating. I thought it was going to be a philosophical discussion with a bunch of woo woo non sense but it was very grounded. Im not over the hill of completely accepting no free will but I'm much closer to the peak. Most will attack the notion because of the ramifications but its worth listen
