Last month I was in a law firm. Not because of a legal issue—I was there to discuss writing the content for their new websites. Two lawyers, who had been part of one firm, were setting up independent practices. One lawyer hired me. The other wasn't sure, so he wanted to meet me. A week later I learned that the second lawyer decided he would write his website himself. On Saturday, I was shocked to see a story in the local newspaper: The second lawyer, Seth A.

The FBI actually arrested him in municipal court and escorted him out in handcuffs. The lawyer was one of …

It turns out that the story was picked up around the country, which is good—it means word about these disordered individuals is getting out.

My 12-year-old daughter and I were just discussing the article being in the paper she is very aware of sociopaths having been on the r …
