Episode Synopsis

Hybristophilia, also known as the "Bonnie and Clyde Syndrome," is a psychological phenomenon defined by a sexual or romantic attraction to individuals who have committed crimes, especially heinous or violent acts. This rare and controversial paraphilia gets its name from the Greek words "hybristos," meaning "to commit an outrage against someone," and "philia," meaning "love" or "attraction." It is a complex topic that delves into the interplay of psychology, sociology, and human relationships.
