What’s the criminal psychology of genius IQ murders, why do they almost always get caught, and how did police catch the highest IQ murders in American history?
Recently, we’ve been hearing a lot about criminals who were supposedly smart with high IQs and those in PhD programs who seemed to think that they could get away with it, but who were the smartest murderers ever and how did they get caught by police who typically have average intelligence? As you may know IQ, or intelligence quotient, measures reasoning ability and gauges how well someone uses logic and information to make predictions and answer questions. A high IQ does not tell everything about someone or whether they’ll make smart life choices, clearly since committing murder is a really stupid thing to do and people with high IQs sometimes commit murder, but also think they’re too smart to get caught.
Now in the comments: Do you think Nathan Leopold and Richard Loeb would have gotten away with it, especially back then, if their victim was a poor kid and not a rich kid? Let everyone know in the comments below.
