Narcissus schoolboy who killed his parents is cleared of murder
A gifted schoolboy who butchered his elderly parents was not guilty of murder because he suffered from a syndrome that gave him a grandiose sense of self-importance, a judge decided yesterday. Mr Justice Royce accepted that Brian Blackwell, 19, who took his girlfriend on a £30,000 international spending spree after the killings, had acute narcissistic personality disorder. He ordered that a double murder charge be dropped, allowing Blackwell to admit manslaughter on the grounds of diminished responsibility.
This one reallyreally hurt my head.

"If you've read much about serial killers, they go through what they call different phases. In the trolling stage, basically, you're looking for a victim at that time. You can be trolling for months or years, but once you lock in on a certain person, you become a stalker. That might be several of them but you really hone in on one person. They basically become the ... that's the victim. Or at least that's what you want it to be."
