Can a person be predisposed from birth to inflict violence at a certain age? And what if this homicidal tendency was created by someone looking to weaponize genetics?
Germline editing is happening today to make changes to heritable traits a parent does not want to pass down to their offspring. Imagine if, unbeknownst to the mothers-to-be, someone altered the DNA of their embryos to create an evil that no one knew how to stop.
