THE MURDERERS AMONG US

This blog is about crime,killers, and related topics. According to some writers and some statistical information, though it might be higher or lower, ONE IN EVERY TEN PEOPLE YOU MEET OR PASS BY IS A MURDERER! If, as now being advocated, more criminals are poured into the street, we can perhaps expect more murders,especially if 'reformed' murderers are released Of course, this is not all I want to say on this subject but will continue things later. SOME OF THE NICEST PEOPLE YOU EVER MEET ARE MURDERERS! I took a course at UNH in criminology, which was taught by Stuart Palmer of the Sociology Department. I also took a course on Anthropology from him. But the field of sociology as taught then did not interest me as much as psychology and philosophy. Anyway, we went on a field trip to the NH State Prison where we did see some killers among the convicts. Years later, when I became a Corrections Officer at the Sullivan County House of Correction in Unity, I again had opportunity to visit the State Prison for a Correctional Officers Course and again another time. Professor Palmer had a theory that most murderers had been frustrated and killed out of that frustration but while this seemed possible to me, I did not accept this entirely and still don't. It seems to me there are other factors.
