Biological Criminal Behaviour
Choose a criminal offender
who committed crimes due to a biological reason.
Write a 1,400- to
2,100-word paper discussing the genetic or physiological evidence that supports
the notion that biology played a key role in explaining the offender's
criminality.
Research the behaviors
that constitute psychopathy. Discuss in detail the specific behaviors
demonstrated by the offender that align with behaviors indicative of a
psychopathic individual. Case examples include the following:
- Andrea Yates and the documented evidence of
psychiatric issues, including post-partum depression, prior to the murders
of her five children
- Charles Whitman, known as the Texas
Tower Sniper, and the presence of a tumor discovered post-mortem alleged
to have played a role in his overt acts of aggression
- John Hinckley, Jr. and the documented
evidence of psychiatric issues leading to his controversial insanity
defense in the shooting of President Ronald Reagan
Include at least two academic
references.
Format your paper
consistent with APA guidelines.
