Neuropsychology and the legal responsibility of psychopaths: A philosophical reassessment

Some argue that certain neuropsychological evidence shows that psychopathic offenders are not criminally responsible or are less criminally responsible for their crimes. (Morse 2008 ; Focquaert, Glenn and Raine, 2015 ; Siffred and Hirstein 2003). We maintain that the current neurological evidence cannot support the conclusion that psychopaths are not criminally responsible or less criminally responsible for their crimes.
