  1. No don't go there, psychopathy is NOT genetic! Also most extremely driven people are sociopaths but they're not violent but they have no empathy so it's easy for them to climb the corporate ladder. We all have the ability to be violent and some are prone to it but it always comes down to a choice which is an ability we are all born with.

  2. I've read that psychologically a traumatic event can halt emotional development and he sounds like his was halted at the age when this was committed. If I didn't know, after listening to him here I'd guess he was 18-20 years old. Just like sexual fantasies the reality is never like the fantasy and until you've experienced that you believe the reality will be exactly like what is fantasized. I can only think it's the same for any fantasy because I've seen other young people who have wanted to murder someone say how much they wish they never did it because it was nothing like what they thought and wasn't worth losing their freedom at all. He is right when he said if they never met this wouldn't have happened, as the French say Folks à deux or folly of two. Just so sad and preventable, wish we had better mental health care in schools!
