Had an in law that abused and assaulted many people in Ontario area. Including kidnapping and elderly person.

Entire extended family was begging police To arrest him. They absolutely would not do anything. I personally spent thousands on efforts to assist him.

Some people are just scum.

Oh and he always had some sweet girlfriend that he abused like crazy. Each one would take a couple of years to wake up that he was just using them.

"Some people are just scum."

Sadly yes. There are usually thousands of reason, why they became scum in the first place and it is important to ask those questions and find ways of improvement - but those are not helpful for the present situation at hand, when others have to deal with actual fear.

He had a mother that gave him everything he wanted, and made excuses for him at every stage.

His sister was raised by a strict dad.

She has her own problems from it, but can function in society.

"He had a mother that gave him everything he wanted, and made excuses for him at every stage."

Yeah well, that sounds like the reason. Pretty much Eric Cartman stereotype (from south park).
