    In Cold Blood is one of the most famous and first true crime novel from the author, Truman Capote. Following the traumatic events of the Clutter family murder, Capote “…uses a number of different perspectives — the killers themselves and also neighbors and investigators — to weave his story together” (Wiener). By including multiple perspectives from the murderers to the residents, the novel contains many themes; one of those themes I easily saw was the community’s loss of innocence following murder of the Clutter family.

    A lot of people want to blame the parents of the offenders, asking “what did you turn your child into?” 36% of serial killers were physically abused, 26% were sexually abused, and 50% were psychologically abused (Mitchell and Aamodt 45). Many people have logically come to the conclusion that just because someone is abused, it does not mean that they will become a serial killer; or even a murderer; which is true. In the general population (people who have never committed murder) only 6% are physically abused, 3% are sexually abused, and 2% are psychologically abused (Mitchell and Aamodt 45). The dramatic difference of abuse frequency between people who are serial killers and people who are not seems evident enough to support that serial killers are created.…
