I think there could be lots of reasons behind a mental state like that.
I listen to lots of morbid podcasts and the topic of what causes a mentality with little or no empathy is talked about a lot.
Being isolated or abused during childhood is one. A culture that glamorizes a cold hearted lack of empathy is another. From all the prison, Nazi, mafia and serial killer documentaries I watch these things are pretty common.
There might be culture within cartels of some kind of competitive heartlessness, atrocious acts being used as hazing in rituals.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.

It's also worth noting that people become capable of behavior when done as part of a group which they would not be inclined toward if alone.

This type of "mental illness" can be cured by a timely application of a high speed projectile through the brain.

You need to create the same "mental illness" in order to get a man to pull -that- trigger, is the irony.
