Statistically, it's more likely to be a learned behavior, but not always. Either a learned behavioral trait or innate trait can often be detected in some anti-social behavior as a child. You know when some idiot quotes CSI and says something like, "Torturing animals is a sign of being a sociopath"? Well they're on the right track, even though they're just trying to sound smart. Many of the warning signs that someone may be capable of murder can be detected earlier in life and steps can be taken to curb said behavior before it even becomes violent.
Even behavior that stems from neuro-chemical issues can often be curbed.
