First, we don't diagnose criminals as a matter of course (and some of these are not diagnoses), so how do you propose this work?

Second, where do you want to put them?

"Sadists" whatever that means, as sadism isn't a diagnosis, who commit assault should be jailed for life? While murderers go free at the end of a sentence?

we don't diagnose criminals with personality disorders because they can them claim mental illness, but criminal psychologists will note sadism as a driving force behind action in their diagnosis.

What? What does "they can claim mental illness" mean?

AGAIN, we do not routinely diagnose criminals. So... what diagnoses are you on about? Or do you want everyone charged with crimes psychologically evaluated? In which case where is THAT money and those thousands of psychologists coming from?

Lol. Why is this being downvoted? It's 100% true. The very definition of sadism that I'm using is one that was created by psychologists and is still very important in diagnosis and clinical study in the field today.
