Blueprint of a Psychopath

''Learn the rules and break them’ was written on his T-shirt when we played tennis together for the first time. Should I have noticed it?Much, much earlier?Yes, I should have.But by then, it was already far too late.Psychopaths weave a sticky web of lies, slander, and intrigue. Once you''re caught in it, it''s almost impossible to escape.You flail around, but it’s completely futile.4% of the general population are psychopaths. Not all of them become murderers.I wish for close cooperation between courts and psychiatrists. I wish there were free points of contact for those affected within courts, public prosecutors, and the police.Clever psychopaths – and that’s most of them – often go unnoticed for a long time.For far too long.If you come across one, turn around and run as fast as you can. That’s the only way. Believe me. I know what I’m talking about.
