Finding Paragraph 1

 Antisocial Personality Disorder is the thing that makes serial killers so brazen and apathetic. It is like their clockwork: It makes them tick. ASP is when a person feels no remorse for any of their actions. They live based on pure selfishness and what makes them feel good. They are fearless of any consequences. These dangerous killers diagnosed with ASP appear to be nice, friendly people at first sight. They can be extremely easy to communicate with and make a relationship with, but to them, the relationship one may share with them is meaningless. They can pick out the weaknesses in others and use those "soft spots" to benefit themselves in any way they choose. Researchers are ambivalent as to what causes this disorder. Most have come to a theory that past trauma has contributed to it as much asit genetically inherited. Most psycho killers' childhoods are cruel and involved some kind of abuse whether it be physical or verbal. Two examples to support the theory that past trauma aids in the acquiring of ASP are Charles Manson and Ted Bundy. Charles Manson, a notorious killer, was born November 12, 1934 in Cincinnati, Ohio. His mother was only 16 years old when she gave birth to him and neglected him. Her name was Kathleen Maddox; she was promiscuous, a criminal, and an alcoholic. She went to jail in 1940. Ted Bundy was born November 24, 1946. His mother was Eleanor Louise Cowell. She was also just a girl when she had her son, so she convinced him that they were siblings. Her thought his grandparents were his biological parents. As an adult he referred to his mother as his mom and sister.
