Serial Killers & Murderous Minds
Joel the Ripper: Joel Rifkin 1

The amygdala is where the fight or flight response is, which is where anxiety, fear, and empathy are. So it's more likely than not that it's a combination of psychological and biological causes for why he's quick thinking, but also not very reactionary.

So he's had four years of the same murder, right? So after four years of having the same repeat of a stimuli, he is getting a decrease in his reaction or his response to it. And what drives him is that thrill, right?

It's interesting that they're able to identify that they died from strangulation wounds because generally speaking, strangulation doesn't really leave any outward signs. It's like a silent killer in that way. Generally, what they find is that there are signs of strangulation internally versus externally.
