This post has received quite a number of visits. Originally I had no text, only these photos. Among what I look for are:
- the proverbial sociopathic hollow eyes described by Cleckley (his book Mask of Sanity is linked to on the right) and Hare (as I recall) — negative in this case
- adult inappropriate mannerisms and small behaviors that seem to indicate a child in an adult’s body — negative (still images are not optimal for this of course, this is further complicated by us all still containing our child selves)
- sociopathic level of arrogance and contempt — positive
- reptilian coldness — positive.
None of these are definitive, but here we have Alcala’s behavior which is absolutely sociopathic.
