I assume that each of the cannibalistic child killers had two cannibalistic child killers as parents, who each had two cannibalistic child killers, and they....so on?

Otherwise you don't really have much of a point.

If it was as simple as criminals are criminals because their parents were criminals, then back in the middle ages those families would probably have been drowned and crime would have died out with them.
