title: [Murder as fun].
abstract: Aggressive behaviors are often accompanied by excitement. Violence is often triggered to as a means of helping a felon reach an emotional thrill. This is also true in the case of homicides. Hedonistic motivation of a murderer derives from a need to feel an emotional 'high' from killing a human being. In such instances, a murderer's pattern of behavior reflects elements of fun and entertainment.
