29. He definitely fits the above description of a sociopath.
Narcissistic personality disorder is too mild a diagnosis for him, it is still in the neurosis category. My mother-in-law is a card carrying narcissist, but she hasn't killed anybody yet. His Fraudulency's 'disorder', on the other hand,is much more serious, and dangerous, sociopath fits him to a tee.
