5. Eric Smith (Born – 1980)
At 13, Eric Smith was subjected to bullying for of his thick glasses, freckles, long red hair, and his elongated ears. These were supposedly the side effect of a medicine his mother had taken for her epilepsy when she was pregnant. One day Smith was charged for the murder of a 4 year-old boy, Derrick Robie. Smith had strangled the boy and had smashed his head by large stones, and after all this had even sexual assaulted the corpse. For some reason Smith could not give a definite answer as to why he had committed the crime. A psychiatrist diagnosed Smith and found out the answer, he was suffering from intermittent explosive disorder (a dangerous condition where a person loses control of the inner rage). Smith was convicted of second-degree murder and sent to prison.
