    Интересно знать: In Russian, can one correctly describe Hannibal Lecter as a маньяк? (My understanding is that Lecter is NOT a "маньяк" because there was no sexual element to his crimes. But does "маньяк" always imply "sexual predator"?)

    sexual predator => сексуальный маньяк
    serial killer => серийный убийца или маньяк
    sexual predator + serial killer => маньяк
    Словом можно обидеть. Словарём - убить.
