Have You Heard...?-3
A biological defect in the way blood flows in the brain rather than a psychological defect could be one reason why some people become criminal psychopaths, a new study shows.
Researchers from the Institute of Psychiatry, King's College London monitored the emotional responses of six men who had committed repeat offences such as attempted murder, rape with strangulation and grievous bodily harm.
"We've never been able to look directly in the brain before and what we found is that when psychopaths were exposed to frightened faces the distress cue didn't increase the psychopath's blood flow. It decreased it," Declan Murphy, a professor of psychiatry at the institute, told Reuters. Tom Fahy, professor of forensic mental health and co-author of the study, said the condition may be inherited or acquired through very deprived and abusive childhoods.

I asked Monk Anselmo what one meant by deprived childhood.
Master Crapper was sure it meant some children could get hands on all the latest model of i-pods and Wil," because they have rich parents who buy their silence with whatever money can buy.Whereas many others cannot.”
I countered it saying,” When I wanted to play I had a hoop and a stick, and my sister had her dolls made from potatoes and dresses made from discards.”
“Master Twaddle, have your sister still got those potato dolls? I am curious to see.”
“Sorry fellow,”I replied," We ate them after one bad winter.”
The monk wanted to know if we have had abusive childhood. We both were sure we had uneventful childhoods and we didn’t miss a thing. How we chattered of the moral values to be had from being in want of worldly goods. “ Spiritual riches! That is what we have acquired in abundance!”
Monk Anselmo boxed our ears and said, “ The way you both have been patting your own backs I wish God let you to be manor born and mollycoddled by an army of nannies. Must you twaddle… ?”
“That is Crapper you are speaking to, and I am Twaddle.” I said.
