Good point............I mean why didn't he apologize to Elisabeth? I think you're right. He's just parrotting what he thinks the police wants to hear. Believe me, I didn't fall for that "Oh I kinew it was wrong but I did it any way" You can SO tell behind those words, he feels perfectly justified in his actions.
I would LOVE to be one of the psychologists examining him. This is a really fasinating case. You know......I would love to have Oliver Sacks do one of his Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat analysis articles on a severe sociopath. It's interesting. How is it that one person with sociopathic tendancies in childhood grows up to be borderline psychopathic disorder (mentally ill, but doesn't do bizare stuff like be a serial killer or eat people or imprison and rape their own daughter) and another person grows up to be severely socio/pyschopathic. Is there a diffy between antisocial personality disorder and pychopathy? For some reason I thought that pyschopathy was more severe then APD.
