2001 paper describes one such case, of a woman whose rare, intractable epilepsy produced seizures virtually daily that were associated with outbursts of agitated aggression. She had been arrested thirty-two times for such violent incidents; the severity of violence escalated, culminating in a murder. The seizure focus was near the amygdala, and after surgical removal of that part of her temporal lobe, both the seizures and the aggressive outbursts stopped.[4]
