Psychopath Criminal Profile - YOU know a few of them

Profile of the psychopath

(I don't know how to say this, but whatever you do, don't dismiss anyone with these traits, not parts of it, the whole lot) 

A summary some of the common features of descriptions of the behavior of sociopaths.

Jekyll and Hyde personality. 'Wears one hat' with regular crowd. He's devious, not stupid. 

Intimidating with wit/knowledge,/acquisition. Primary need to brag/boast (how does that manifest)

Glibness and Superficial Charm 

Manipulative and Conning 

Team-Player. Ambitious, looking for new spin/more empowerment to secure his place of importance regardeless of reasoned and rational  truth and logic, found hunting prey/porn when under pressure/challenged 

Self-serving behaviors are permissible. No matter what. They appear to be charming, yet are covertly hostile and domineering, seeing their victim as merely an instrument to be used. They may dominate and humiliate their victims. 

Coldly rational

Grandiose Sense of Self  Must have the best available.  Dangerous when thwarted/challenged. 

Feels entitled to certain things as "their right." 

Pathological Lying 
Has no problem lying coolly and easily and it is almost impossible for them to be truthful on a consistent basis. Can create, and get caught up in, a complex belief about their own powers and abilities. Extremely convincing and even able to pass lie detector tests. 

Lack of Remorse, Shame or Guilt 
A deep seated rage, which is split off and repressed, is at their core. Does not see others around them as people, but only as targets and opportunities. Instead of friends, they have victims and accomplices who end up as victims. The end always justifies the means and they let nothing stand in their way.

 (They are in YOUR profession) 

Shallow Emotions 
When they show what seems to be warmth, joy, love and compassion it is more feigned than experienced and serves an ulterior motive. Outraged by insignificant matters, yet remaining unmoved and cold by what would upset a normal person. Since they are not genuine, neither are their promises. 

Incapacity for insightful Love (regard and respect for 'loved' ones interests nor promotion of autonomy in partners/colleagues)

Need for Stimulation 

Living on the edge. Dangerous sport. Verbal outbursts and physical punishments are normal. Promiscuity and gambling are common.

Callousness/Lack of Empathy 

Unable to empathize with the pain of their victims, having only contempt for others' feelings of distress and readily taking advantage of them. 

Poor Behavioral Controls/Impulsive Nature 

Rage and abuse, alternating with small expressions of 'love' and approval produce an addictive cycle for abuser and abused, as well as creating hopelessness in the victim. Believe they are all-powerful, all-knowing, entitled to every wish, no sense of personal boundaries, no concern for their impact on others. 

Early Behavior Problems/Juvenile Delinquency 

Usually has a history of behavioral and academic difficulties, yet "gets by" by conning others. Problems in making and keeping friends; aberrant behaviors such as cruelty to people or animals, stealing, etc. 

Irresponsibility/Unreliability 

Not concerned about wrecking others' lives and dreams. Oblivious or indifferent to the devastation they cause. Does not accept blame themselves, but blames others, even for acts they obviously committed. 

Promiscuous Sexual Behavior/Infidelity 

Stalking, Control-freak, Promiscuity, BDSM,  child sexual abuse, rape and sexual acting out of all sorts. 

Lack of Realistic Life Plan/Parasitic Lifestyle 

Tends to move around a lot or makes all encompassing promises for the future, poor work ethic but exploits others effectively. 

Loyalty is based on gain, not for what's good.

Convoluted speech. Non malicious seek to simplify as much as possible. 

Removing autonomy. Fighting against independent thought. 

Criminal or Entrepreneurial Versatility 
Changes their image as needed to avoid prosecution. Changes life story readily.

Contemptuous of those who know the truth

Does not perceive that anything is wrong with them
Authoritarian
Secretive
Paranoid
Only rarely in difficulty with the law when in receipt of 'supply', but seeks out situations where their tyrannical behavior will be tolerated, condoned, or admired
Conventional appearance
Goal of enslavement of their victim(s)
Exercises despotic control over every aspect of the victim's life
Has an emotional need to justify their crimes and therefore needs their victim's affirmation (respect, gratitude and love)
Ultimate goal is the creation of a willing victim
Incapable of real human attachment to another
Unable to feel remorse or guilt
Extreme narcissism and grandiose
May state readily that their goal is to rule the world

(The above traits are personal experience and mostly based on the psychopathy checklists of H. Cleckley and R. Hare.) 

In 1830's this disorder was called "moral insanity." By 1900  changed to "psychopathic personality." More recently it has been termed "antisocial personality disorder" 
DSM-IV Definition .
