Step 4 Robert Hansen is a man who has problems his entire life. Whether it was dealing with his abusive father or his mother that wouldn’t give him any attention. Over the years he has created a hatred for women and that’s why I believe he falls under the psychological deviance. His mother had ruined his life at an early age and wouldn’t let him be a normal kid. Constantly making him transfer schools and being under a very high command of his mother. She had forever changed his life and that’s why I believe he has killed over 15 women. But then he took it beyond what a normal person would do. That is when I think he fell under the deviance of sociological because he would kill a bunch of women. His behaviors were not like an average person so that is why I think he had many sociological and psychological problems. Robert growing up was very difficult to him and he could never adapt correctly. I don’t believe this was physiological because both of his parents were not criminals. So I don’t believe any of this was passed down by genes or from older family members.
