Why do people become serial killers and mass murderers

Introduction

Every now and again the world is shocked by some brutal killings. The killings may be due to serial killers or due to mass murderers.

There are differences between mass murderers and serial killers:

For extreme acts like killing someone one has to suffer severely at a spiritual level in this lifetime or the next. But what if an entity or a ghost acted through a person? And by possessing the person, the ghost made the person commit heinous crimes like serial killing and mass murder. Is the possessed person still responsible as per the Law of Karma?
