What Makes Him Pure Evil?[]
- Preferred a life of "freedom", as opposed to following in his father's footsteps, he would later take a wife in a like-minded woman named Agnes, where they made a home in a cave and lived a life of vice; mainly cannibalism and incest.
- Their union produced dozens of children and subsequent grandchildren from inbreeding.
- Over the years they would kill, rob, and cannibalize thousands of people,
- In turn would get innocent people lynched when they were blamed for the murders.
- When Sawney and his family were revealed to the world when they attacked a married couple on their wedding night, and in the ensuing manhunt, their cave was found decorated with the bones, body parts and possessions of their victims.
- Mutilation of victims, he would also steal their valuables - bodies became so rampant people would find body parts washing up on beaches around the area.
- His exact death toll in legend varies but can get as high as a thousand (if true would of made him one of the most prolific serial-killers of all time)
- Chose to only eat people, despite there being so many more food sources available.
- Showed no remorse or care even after his family's executions, instead declaring that his terror would never end.
- Defiled corpses to eat.
- While there are slight variations to the story, a constant was the King orders Sawney and his family to be inhumanely executed without a trial, as they were no longer considered human at this point
