How to spot a psychopath
Published: Thursday, May 26, 2011 | Posted By: Dennis
I would like to say I'm pretty good at the "guess who is crazy" game but sometimes the worse of the bunch also appear perfectly fine, in fact that is the real danger.
It was visiting hour at Broadmoor psychiatric hospital and patients began drifting in to sit with their loved ones at tables and chairs that had been fixed to the ground. They were mostly overweight, wearing loose, comfortable T-shirts and elasticated sweatpants. There probably wasn't much to do in Broadmoor but eat. I wondered if any of them were famous. Broadmoor was where they sent Ian Brady, the Moors murderer, and Peter Sutcliffe, the Yorkshire Ripper.
So how do you get out of the "mad house" once you have gotten yourself in there? Simply put, you don't!. Most of the time you have committed a crime and while you avoid jail time you are still locked away until you can prove you are ready for the jail time.
Double edged sword for sure.
Its a good read, give it a look
