As per many accounts of people that have been close to him throughout his life, Ted had a loving family and a perfectly normal upbringing. While he wanted to blame this and that for his actions, the truth of the matter is that he was a psychopath and could not assume responsibility for what he did so he had to find things to blame it on: his family, porn, his ex, etc. Often times after confessing to his crimes, he'd often recant, displaying either a lack of understanding of what he'd done and a lack of willingness to claim responsibility. So let's not give him credit and excuse it because there is no excuse.
That said, I've always been curious to know if given the chance to achieve notoriety and a level of personal power in a different manner, would he have done it? He was a brilliant and quite a capable man who could've handled his demons differently. There are plenty of douchebags that thrive in society and are able to use that level of manipulation and possession to their own means, so why not him?
