Unmasking the Mask: 69 Shocking Signs Psychopaths Use to Hide in Plain Sight
But my area of professional and academic expertise is child sexual victimisation. I’ve very occasionally seen psychopaths in the making, as it were. Victims who have been so terribly victimised and neglected that you can see them setting out on the path of an a****r or other type of criminal. It wasn’t my responsibility to intervene (and I don’t have any expertise in that area of things), but knowing the case histories it was sad to watch. I’ve talked to a few police officers, social workers and so forth about a few of them. It’s like watching a large tree toppling in slow motion–you know it’s going to crash into the ground, but there’s not much you can do about it.
I have met (in a professional capacity but in a roundabout sort of way as it’s not the usual stuff I do) the relative of a serial k**ler who was also once a suspect. I came away from that meeting knowing with certainty that they were the guiding hand behind the crimes of the serial k**ler. The police were pretty sure as well, but there was simply no evidence. Both are now deceased, and frankly I’m not going to shed any tears for them. There was definitely familial a*&se there as well.
I have encountered some persons, a very small number, that were psychopathic and quite smart. This was through working within my field. One of these persons indicated that they were a*****e towards animals in lieu of, or to work up to, children. I’m not going to repeat it, but what they said was something that haunts me to this day and I haven’t even been able to repeat to my closest friends or even my psychologist.
