- Let's talk about
serial killers.

Was the Bay Area Butcher
born a killer,

or did his environment
turn him into one?

Is a sociopath a result
of nature or nurture?

Well, that is a question
that has plagued scientists

and academics for centuries.

In fact, some behavioral
psychiatrist at Quantico

is probably asking that
very question right now.

Unfortunately,
they're looking for an answer

they'll never find.

I propose, while environment
clearly plays a part,

it is the anatomical structure
of one's brain,

our nature,

that will determine which of us
will become the next Butcher.

they just captured a real image

- The Boston 9 case.

Guess he was more than
a person of interest.

- Boston 9--why does that
sound so familiar?

- It's an infamous unsolved
case from 1990 to 1995.

Nine bodies were found
buried in the remote woods

beside the Concord River,

each with a section
of their brain removed.

- It's never just a good old

wound up on their radar,

But before
they could build a case,

he died in a one-car accident
driving home from Harvard.

- Big air quotes on that "one."

- Sounds to me like
somebody figured out

Fairfax was the Boston 9 guy,

didn't want the public
to know the truth,

inside the Pit.

the Pit has faked the death

- All right,
Note the slightly reduced

volume in the prefrontal lobe,

the moderately
reduced connections

between the amygdala
and the prefrontal cortex.

Every serial killer
I have studied

shares a number of these
anatomical features.

Well, you may be wondering,
if we can just

scan someone's brain and
determine their predisposition

toward murderous violence,
shouldn't we be able to stop

them before they start?

Unfortunately, not so simple,

because these unique structures

are not isolated
to killers alone.

For example,

structurally,
this patient's brain

is no different from your
average serial killer.

Yet this scan belongs to...

my assistant,
Mr. Clive Alanson.

[laughter]

So far,
he hasn't killed anyone

that we know of.

[laughter]

So we have to ask,

why is one a killer

and the other my assistant?

Where is that biological
switch inside their minds?

And what flips it
from off

to on?

- Loves the sound of
his own voice, doesn't he?

- Yeah, he does.

- Five years old Fairfax
was labeled a gifted child

and wound up skipping
several grades.

In multiple interviews,
he mentions feeling

completely out of step
with his much older classmates.

It's my guess that over time,

Fairfax's antisocial traits

bloomed into
a full-blown lifestyle.

So he retreated into academia,
where his smarts were an asset,

not a liability.
- Let me guess.

He's one of those kids
that went to Harvard at 16.

- 15.

At 20,
he had his MD and his PhD.

And at 25, he was a tenured
professor and a leading voice

in the convergence
of criminal anatomy,

neuroscience, and antisocial
personality disorder.

- Doogie Howser,
the serial killer.

- Now, that is a show
I would watch.

Hey, what's the over-under on
serial killers being geniuses?

- On TV, yeah, pretty high,

but not in real life.

Sidney Fairfax was in
his own class of mind,

like a Ted Kaczynski,
another Ivy Leaguer,

or a Rodney Alcala.

- Alcala.

The Dating Game Killer, UCLA.
- Mm-hmm.

- If these guys
are such brilliant geniuses,

why are they making such
horrible life choices?

- 'Cause he didn't see it
as a horrible life choice.

Sidney savored the power
and control he felt

over killing
an innocent person.

He could recognize his victim's
distress but didn't weight it.

The consequences of
his actions on others

meant absolutely
nothing to him.

- Plus, being a professor
would have allowed him

to hide in plain sight.

I'm sure that was part
of the thrill.

- Yeah, super-thrilling stuff.

Look, I know you care about him
as much as I do.

- How can I help?

- We tracked Fairfax to a

There is no sign that
Shane or Fairfax are here.

- You're in the right place,
just not the right level.

a cranial drill

into little Shane's

temporal lobe.

I'm a pretty good shot.

- Well, you're welcome

But I'm telling you that
one flick of my finger,

Shane is not your lab rat.

He is brave and selfless.

He is a decorated marine,

and yet he is way too humble
to actually talk about that.

- Uh-huh, he also has the brain
of a killer.

So--

how many holes you drill,

you won't change who Shane is,

who he has chosen to be.

He cares more deeply
about people

than anyone I have ever met.

He is kind, he's loyal,

fall asleep wherever.

- Not everything.

There are still some pieces
I haven't shared with him.

- So what, you're gonna
share them with me now?

- There's no excuse

but there is context.

Were you ever bullied
in school, Rebecca?

- Bullies aren't just
in school.

- Indeed, but mine were.

And they were merciless.

I was 17 years old,
not comfortable in my own skin,

and I was not equipped to
navigate what was done to me.

I didn't care
about the consequences.

All I cared about was

if I became the killer,

I'd no longer be the victim.

What I didn't know was that
there was something

wrong with me,

what I would later
