Criminally Famous Paths
Charles Manson, Theodore (Ted) Bundy and Jeffrey Dahmer all have one thing in common: they all used to, or are still, suffering from antisocial personality disorder, commonly abbreviated as ASPD. Antisocial personality disorder is a type of long term mental condition in which a person's ways of thinking, observing and taking part in situations and relating to others are, a lot of times, debilitated — and destructive. People with antisocial personality disorder typically have no sense of right and wrong and often disregard the rights, wishes and feelings of others. Causing physical harm to another person will usually only make the person with the disorder become that much more excited. After the acts of violence they commit, they feel no remorse or sympathy, and go on about their day as if nothing bad has happened. They also have no regard for the law, or any authority of any kind. They tend to have an exaggerated sense of self-worth and usually put their needs and wants before others (Mayo Clinic). All three of the men mentioned above have committed some of the most memorable acts of horrific psychopathic and sociopathic violence in the history of the United States. These kinds of violence fall into the category that gives these men the antisocial personality disorder traits.
Charles Manson was a mastermind of manipulation, so outstanding in fact, that later on in his life he manipulated several of his “followers” to commit murder. Manson was born on November 12, 1934 in Cincinnati, Ohio. Manson lived out the younger years of his life in a neglected and unguided childhood. His parents did not play a very big part in his life, as they were never around him, and always left him in the care of friends or other family members. This act of child abandonment by his parents caused him to dive headfirst into the life of crime. He was also very antisocial at a young age, and did not have a lot of friends, and even fewer girlfriends. Manson
