Psychology / sociopaths
English term or phrase: cold blooded detachment
Context

A sociopath is not always a serial killer, or, for that matter, any kind of killer. Yes, some sociopaths kill, and they can do it with a coldblooded detachment that shocks the humanity in the rest of us.

con espeluznante sangre fría


Explanation:
La verdad, es lo que yo diría: "con espeluznante sangre fría"... pues luego llega el aspecto "shocking"...

Pero, vale...

... cada vez se emborrachan más menores, conducen sin carné, apalean y matan con espeluznante sangre fría y hasta lo graban, a sabiendas de que estas leyes son un chollo que apenas les va a castigar.
