I didn't recognise this word - although I have heard about people forming sexual attractions to criminals.
I had to look up the etymology -
The second part of the word is well known as in philia having its origin in a Greek word meaning love as in bibliophile being a lover of books.
But the initial Hybris was unknown, but apparently, this also traces to a Greek word which means "To commit an outrage against someone" it also links to the word hubris.

It's also known as Bonnie and Clyde syndrome.
Hybristophilia is a condition in which one is sexually and romantically attracted to who commits crime.
