Unorganized serial killers, share a slightly different profile. These
types of serial killers tend to have below average intelligent levels
and are considered to be socially inadequate; often living alone and
someone who does not date. They are usually high school drop outs and
have minimal interest in the media. They tend to keep a messy house and
have poor hygiene. They tend to leave the body intact with a crime scene
high in evidence.

There are seven types of motives that drive serial killers to kill.
These include visions that the killer claims have come to them "guiding
them to kill", a desire to rid the population of a certain race or type
of individual, hedonistic reasons; meaning the killer gets pleasure from
the violence, lust; in which they kill for sexual gratification (whether
the actual act of sex occurs or not), for thrill, for personal gain such
as money or material goods, and power seekers, who like to control the
death time of others in order to feel in control of their own lives.

Serial killers usually spread out their killings and are typically
repeat offenders because the actually act they committed did not live up
to their expectations. The killings tend to gain in severity as the
killer becomes more experienced and are not stopped until they are
jailed, or die themselves. Arrested serial killers who have received
counseling and therapy have shown no improvements in their mental
condition after treatment and these rehabilitation practices have even
worsened the problem.

Scientists now believe that in the future there might be a cure for the
defect in the brain on the medulla oblongata which is responsible for
emotional reaction. While the technology, availability and ethical
concerns are limiting this possibility right now, the theory is out
there being worked on.
