It's only true if it's universal, and it's not. As an abuse victim I can tell you people assuming that the fact you were abused means you will commit abuse is infuriating.

I agree with you 100%. But the way stereotypes work, is that what is true in the macro is not true in the micro, but humans do the work that make the “true in the micro” part work for them.

And your evidence that it's true in the macro?

I did actually start researching, but then you get all these weird google warnings and banners (“there’s help!”) so gave up.

Point taken though. Anecdotal and media common != true, esp with these crimes where sensationalization plays a key role and constant anguish from reliving this shit.
