from In Good Health · host Rasmus Larsen, Kristen Farrah, Elizabeth Westfield
Are Psychopaths As Dangerous As The Legal System Believes?For decades, judicial systems in North America have been using formal assessments to identify these psychopathic individuals. Scoring high on these tests can lead to harsher sentencing and exclusion from rehabilitation programs based on the controversial belief that such inmates cannot be changed. However, our expert pushes back against these procedures and discusses what modern research is revealing about psychopathy.
