Something that doesn't show up on a lie detector or psychological exam. A mass murderer or serial killer doesn't tend to provide much foreshadowing of what he/she will do in a few decades, or what will lead up to it, even though people always try to go back and study or research the person's behavior, or ask people that knew them if they remember anything about the person. There's not really a simpler explanation than the person was always evil below the surface, no matter how good or humanitarian (or charitable/warm/generous) they seemed on the surface. Evil people can smile just like anybody else can.
The evil guy/girl knew that hiding in the light where everybody could see him/her would keep him/her in business longer than hiding in a dark alleyway where everybody would think to look for evil and creepy people/shit.

Just like an addict isn't going to put a neon sign to let an officer know where they congregate so that they can come and arrest them (even if everybody knows already) , an evil person isn't going to wear a neon vest saying BAD PERSON COMING THROUGH WEARING BOMB ON VEST, A LOT OF PEOPLE WILL DIE BECAUSE OF ME, STAY BACK, or hide in a dark alleywayway most of the time, somewhere that would draw suspicion that couldn't be readily deferred quickly (some might be found in an alleyway, but it's not as likely as somewhere less obvious, since an evil person wouldn't benefit much from staying in an alleyway for an extended amount of time).
Most evil people prefer to make themselves look wonderful, not evil. Once people know somebody is evil, they start to lose credibility for anything they did that people thought was good or positive, even if there intentions or nature never was good any any point in their life, and the acts people thought were good were really a way to mask their true nature.
