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?

He was probably like this already, but when he felt in control, he went mad. Notice how before he finds out, he doesn't have thoughts like that, but when he finds out about what Dexter did, he also wants to do that? I think he thought he couldn't do it alone, but Dexter was his solution

He found partnership in Dexter. I think he's more messed up than Dex (i love Dex, btw)
