Seriously, what did Jerry do to Stephanie that was so bad... Had she not been such a huge pain in the butt he wouldn't have had to take care of business!

Weird thing to bring up when the guy's a psychotic murderer.

Not always, but the point is the OP knew the real answer and was just trying to be funny.

Wanting the perfect family isn't a crime. Murder is though.

im not sure but i think it becomes a crime after youve already murdered one of your previous families and then go on to try and find another and then try to do the same to them.

Jerry was a murderous psychopath and wanting the "perfect family" through his eyes means control over everyone, and murder if all else fails.

While I'm sure this question isn't meant seriously, I'll answer it in a serious way. While not a crime to want the perfect family, since that desire is a chimera, the obsessive and utterly uncompromising insistence upon having the perfect family plants the seeds of the crime of murder. Nobody is perfect, so clearly a group of people are even less capable of being perfect, but the self-righteous insistence on perfection in others, while ignoring your own flaws (like the willingness to slaughter people because they disappoint you) can lead to very bad results.
