Overview of the criminal profile of an offender
The individual in question was involved in an unexpected terror attack at a place of work. He, alongside other masked suspects, walked into the meeting and fired at everyone. This report hence, figures out the situation and motive behind his acts seeing as the case in question is not straightforward. Terik seems composed, has no criminal record, and based on his presupposed love for America, his destination country, he seems incapable of being involved in such a terror case.
What could have triggered this unusual behavior?
Demographic summary of the individual

Impact of biological factors on the individual
He could have the genetic predisposition where he acquires such terrorism genes from his kin. Supposing that one or more of his relatives are terrorists, he could be such himself seeing, as we do not choose the genes that we inherit
Developmental factors
While growing up, he was always quiet and uninvolved seeing as he kept minimal friends and had no siblings. This introvert behavior could raise many questions as one could be harboring previous pains.

Even his colleagues define him as quiet and awkward, meaning that his behavior was questionable and that his social skills were unaligned. Conclusively, lack of social support from family and friends could be detrimental to the future of a child. The case witnessed is that of a child neglected by the community this with no moral compass. At this point, he is unable to connect with his peers thus going by the strain theory; he could be suffering from the oppositional defiant disorder that according to Rodden, (2008. P.1) ‘is characterized by chronic aggression, frequent outbursts, and a tendency to ignore requests.’
He also witnessed multiple fights and commotions between his parents. The report says that his father beat up the mother frequently. It could thus be possible that he emulated the violent behavior of the father naturally. Children from such unstable homes present with a 50 percent probability of being ferocious. Probably he might have turned out differently if it had not been for this constant exposure to the same pattern of agitated behavior. On another perspective, he could have been angered by the habit of the father and is exhibiting sadism as a cry for attention. Abusive fathers conventionally set bad examples for their children, as they are always rough, unapproachable and hateful. Probably the son hated himself for having been born of such a father and opted for delinquency to channel his revenge.
Environmental factors
Evidently, his previous neighborhood played a huge role towards shaping who he is. Considering that he is a Pakistani immigrant, one can conclude that the longstanding terrorist and extremist tendencies in that particular state came in handy in instilling the current conduct that he illustrates. From his records, he had sworn to involve in jihadist and martyrdom. He could not have forged these behaviors elsewhere but from his surroundings. Individuals from such war-waged states automatically qualify as terrorists because of the lasting influence that their compatriots provoke. Radicalized villains who harbor deep spite for Christians and Americans in particular flood the countries. In effect, one would expect him to possess a certain degree of abhorrence for the Americans.
Another factor of the surroundings could be the animosity that he gets from his colleagues. This theory explains best why he would harbor a motive to harm his fellow workmates. They could have sidelined him and given him the third degree. Indeed, they described him as silent and unassuming, descriptions that depict dislike. This behavior could have been enough to throw such an emotionally unbalanced person off balance. Conventionally, direct profiling usually has devastating impacts on introverted individuals.
Explaining the emerging hypothesis of the motivation for crime using theories
Going by the data, the study hypothesis is that biological, developmental, and environmental factors inspired criminal behavior in Terik. According to the social learning theory, a person acquires such uncouth actions from the context of their lives. Children from dysfunctional families are usually irritable, depressed, and of hot-tempered behaviors. He adapted to the aggressive living in his own home. The psychological theory of crime attributes crime to personal or familial pathology. According to Kings (2012, p.1), ‘The pathways to violence are considered at an individual level that includes internal characteristics of perpetrators, and their immediate circumstances.’ That said, one could argue that indeed, the violence in question was committed because of a damaged psyche. The combination of self-hate, low self-esteem, poor social skills, and introvert nature drove the individual into the crime. Biological theory, on the other hand, argues that violation occurs mainly due to factors beyond personal control. The individual might have acquired the same traits from the bloodline. The criminal violence theory on the other hand deems the perpetrator as one with inherent violent characteristics. It comes in handy in explaining why a seemingly calm employee decided to shoot at the same people he works with. Arguably, this person results in ferocity at the slightest trigger thus might hurt people he did not intent to. Judging by these arguments, Terik had the motive to hurt the colleagues.
