Resum

Psychopathy -and specifically, the criminal acts committed by psychopathic offenders- is a subject that we have outstanding jurists. Nowadays, there is a consistent approach on how to tackle this issue. The lawyers we have been guided, in the treatment that must be dispensed to psychopaths, from the results of research in the medical, psychological and sociological fields, forgetting that our approach and contributions can be as relevant as those arising from these sciences.
