Yes, most criminals aren't sociopaths. A friend of mine has done some time in jail, and he said that most criminals are just folks who made mistakes.
However, there IS a population of honest to god fucked up sociopaths who need to be locked up forever, like in a insistution for the criminally insane.

Yes, there are those individuals who are so sociopathic that no amount of treatment serves to rehabilitate. Their mental illness prevents them from seeing the wrong intheir actions, and they fully believe that they "have done no wrong." They are amazingly adept at justifying their behavior. And they do need to be incarcerated in specialized forensic facilities to prevent them preying on other inmates in the general prison population.
