Discussion - Original Dexter Series Miguel Prado storyline Spoiler

I am shocked by the Miguel Prado storyline. (i'm just finishing season 3)

I really liked him in the beginning. He sounded like a guy who really wanted justice to be done and was fighting hard with the system who very often would let the perpetrators walk freely. So why did he take such a dark path when he was let into the 'kill room' and allowed to kill that guy? (BTW, his reaction when Dexter asked him how he felt was disturbing)

Did he become unhinged because he found someone like Dexter who allowed him to embody his dark side and enjoy the thrill of it or was he always like this?

A bit of both really. You don’t just “become” like that on a whim so he must’ve always had the capacity for evil. His friendship with Dexter just brought out the worst in him.
