There is nothing in principle wrong with having empathy and compassion for all people, including history's great villains. However, that empathy must be expressed in a way that is also empathetic towards their victims.
And to experience or evince greater empathy for murderers than for their victims... even in the moment of expressing empathy... that should DEFINITELY encourage you to self-reflect and change course.
