I mean, it's kind of hard to even define evil, and for every act you might call "evil" there's a bigger or another context in which the same act dictates the survival of a majority, so evil actually is a matter of moral subjectivity and emotional appeal, on wars for instance, both sides usually regard the other as evil.
I think what exists is twisted psychologies, psychiatric disorders and instabilities that lead some "agressors" to their acts, but i would say that all of these people can't really be called "evil" as for them, there's a rational explanation/motivation for their acts that are actually not so "evil", they are just , "peanuts".
I'm pretty sure sending women and children to the gas chambers because of their blood line and inability to participate in hard labor is evil in the purest sense of the word.

Yeah, nothing Yahweh does can be impure.
