To become an animal like that, you need to train yourself and train your mind to be so cruel.
Some people receive the training for free: fatcats take their money and leave them to rot and become more "stiff" as the time goes; not intentionally, but when corruption invades a place, lots go to poverty. Expose them through media and culture to violence; and there is your army of freaks.
All these torture methods originated in "heathen" societies -like the Aztec society-. Back when heathens dominated Europe; for example; fear of judgement day was non existing, and torture methods were so terrible. Christianity cured the playing with peoples' souls, but the heathen history left its imprint on the faith. That's why as torture receded in Arabia with the advent of Islam; it increased to terrible levels with the Crusades and the Inquisitions. And now; as Muslims turned away from their faith, torture came back to haunt the region.
You might oppose torture as a person; but still there are people like "Trump" who say "Torture Works". And they are leaders.
God gave you the heart to hate these acts. We are born with a compassion mechanism inside of us. It's your choice to enrich it or kill it.

Brutality is due to a lack of empathy and a lust for power.
I doubt that the gangster would do what he did if he feared hell, and that the same would happen to him.
