Maybe they are just f'ing evil folks. The same kind of people can come from a very healthy background with a supportive family and great education.

Its hard to make that argument since most of the crime like this comes from lower class communities. This has been the trend throughout history that poverty allows a greater number and more brutal (at least on the surface) crime on an individual level.
If these kids were raised in a suburban neighborhood, I have a really hard time believing they would be pulling the same shit. They would still be the "bad" kids but suburban kids that get in trouble have no comparison to urban kids that get in trouble.
In reality, it has to be a great mixture of genetics, parenting, and environment.
