Yeah, underneath all that cruelty is lots of pain, rage, anger, sadness, unfulfilled needs to be loved/respected/acknowledged, and all sorts of stuff. They are humans who have not fully experienced what it's like to be respected/cared for or 'lost their humanity' along the arduous journey called 3D life. When you're able to understand how they've become the way they've become, and hear what they need and how they feel, you may begin to build compassion. I hypothesize that since they perpetrated something so morally egregious, they are treated as evil and undesirable, unworthy members of society. They live out this outcast role. They, nor others, cannot imagine that these perps may be 'human' and they are not treated as humans. They're accountable for their actions (both by law and by cosmic law). Not subject to our judgments about them.
The important part about building compassion is to understand one's own biases and assumptions or distortions or whatnot when touching upon topics like cruelty. That colors the way you understand them and what opinions you have about it.
