Videos of Antisocial Personality Disorder: Psychopaths & Sociopaths

Ed Kemper. Killed 10 people including his grandparents when he was 15. Jailed as a schizophrenic, he eventually tricked his jailers that he was o.k., let go and killed more people, including his mother. A genius IQ, who stands at 6'9" and a true psychopath: Kemper is scary.

This is a long confession by Dennis Rader, the BTK killer. He tortured and killed 10 women. If you go to the parts where he talks about the killings, you can see how cold he is. He talks about killing people almost bored (no guilt, shame, anxiety). He is a true psychopath: as detached from humanity as he was prepared and methodical in his planning. Watch him confess with no emotion at 6min, 12min, and 20min and probably other places as well. A true psychopath.

Jeffery Dahmer killed 17 men and ate parts of some of them. He is more complex in that while some say he's clearly a psychopath, others disagree and think he was Borderline Personality Disorder with some Anti-Social traits (just not a pure psychopath). His confession seems to show guilt and remorse even though it's clear what his sentence will be: life in prison (there was no death penalty at the time of his crimes in his area). If you read more on Dahmer you'll see many of the complexities that prevent a simple definition among which are his homosexuality that he felt he must repress because of the prevailing values at the time. He's mother's mental stability, his father's disengagement, etc... All this could have made him act out in a way that ultimately according to many would make him a sociopath (made), rather than a psychopath (born). It could very well be that like others he has more than one personality disorder (Anti-Social: psychopathology, and Borderline Personality Disorder...?)

Richard Ramirez, the "Night Stalker." He killed 15 people, at least. He is considered more a sociopath. A terrible childhood, drug addiction, and bad influences (his cousin bragged about killing people in the Vietnamese war and showed pictures of dead people and later even killed his wife in front of young Richard) probably created the person he was more than any inborn issues with his brain like a true psychopath. More, his crimes seem more messy and random than a typical psychopathic killer.

Diane Downs. Shot her 3 children killing one of them. Diagnosed with Anti-Social, Borderline, and Narcissistic Personality Disorder. She shot them so to have a relationship with a man that didn't want to be with her because she had kids. I have some other shorter videos of her I might put up in the future.
