What is it with women and murderers?

A man charged for triple murder in Norway this year sent in personal contact ad with the title “Charged killer in Trondheim seeks”. How many replies do you think he got? In my head I would say 0, who would be interested in such guy?

But I was wrong, 84 women replied! 16 of them were married and 30 of them attached their nude photo.

I’ve noticed some groups of women who is attracted by violent men and get beaten up, leaves them and later gets together again, or they find another violent guy. What is with these women? Is it a mother instinct?

In an interview the guy says that he looks forward meeting some of them, but when he soon get released he will leave the country. While in prison he studies languages and teology.
