Does anyone else see the parallels between Todd Kohlhepp compared to Kylr Yust?I know this will not garner many fans, but after reading the entire psych evaluation and all supplemental documents, it didn't sound like he ever had a chance. His mother didn't want him, his father didn't want him. He sounded like collateral damage from their toxic relationship, and a 15 year old in an adult prison really doesn't stand much chance. I'm actually surprised he came out with the ability to blend back into the world as much as he did. His entire life eval talks about his desire for attention/love/acceptance. I hate to blame the mother here, but I wouldn't be surprised if her resentment towards bio father was transferred onto TK from the earliest of age. Not every child can handle/overcome the yo-yo of "I love you/I hate you". I'm guessing that may have been the theme of his formative years.
Of course all that is not to condone his crimes, more to just try and understand what makes a person do what they do. Sometimes your nature and your nurturing are a toxic mix.
I dont believe either was 'born evil'. They were molded into perceiving things a certain way (nurture), plus the insanity they inherited (nature), which ultimately led to evil. It's tragic that an innocent little baby can be turned into such a frightening monster. If they had both been adopted out or raised by loving, nurturing families I don't think they would have grown up to be the horrible people they are today. It didn't have to go that way for either of them, but it did. The scarier part is that they were both identified as broken and dangerous at a young age, yet left to their own accords. And now here we are.
