Summary/Abstract: The sadistic rapist is the most dangerous of all rapists, a sexual predator who's crime's are based on fantasy. These types of rapists get off sexually by inflicting pain on others. The more his victim cries or begs or pleads for their lives and the more pain they go through, the more aroused he gets. His attacks are the stages for his sexual fantasies. In his attacks, anger, power, control, domination, and exploitation all merge into a hideous being. His victim is nothing to him but a puppet in his own sadistic play. During the assualt there is much physical and mental torture. Usually the torture is directed at sexually significant parts of the body. His weapon will most likely be a knife because of the fear and anguish it can cause. This is the type of rape that often ends in murder. Because the whole assualt is based on a pre-visualized fantasy, that fantasy probably ends in the death of the victim. But even after death the rapist may still continue sexual activity with his victim. There is most likely no chance to escape unharmed from a sadistic rapist since his life is based on the suffering of others, particulary his victims. The sadistic rapist is usually a well educated, intelligent, white male, aged 25-37. He will have a dominant personality and collect pornography, most likely bondage and sadomosochistic. Of all the rapists, he is the rarest, but most dangerous and most difficult to aprehend.
