Profile of the Psychopath/Sociopath

Profile of a Sociopath/Psychopath


Before we get too in depth, we want to share with you some of the research we have done to help us understand what happened.  We are always searching for answers. We found a check list by H. Cleckley and R. Hare which summarizes some of the common features of a psychopath, some of which may come to play as you read this blog.  Knowing these will help you keep a perspective to bounce off behaviors of Elizabeth King-Jones and you can decide for yourself if they overlap.
  • Glibness and Superficial Charm 
  • Manipulative and Conning
    They never recognize the rights of others and see their self-serving behaviors as permissible. They appear to be charming, yet are covertly hostile and domineering, seeing their victim as merely an instrument to be used. They may dominate and humiliate their victims. 
  • Grandiose Sense of Self
    Feels entitled to certain things as "their right." 
  • Pathological Lying
    Has no problem lying coolly and easily and it is almost impossible for them to be truthful on a consistent basis. Can create, and get caught up in, a complex belief about their own powers and abilities. Extremely convincing and even able to pass lie detector tests. 
  • Lack of Remorse, Shame or Guilt
    A deep seated rage, which is split off and repressed, is at their core. Does not see others around them as people, but only as targets and opportunities. Instead of friends, they have victims and accomplices who end up as victims. The end always justifies the means and they let nothing stand in their way. 
  • Shallow Emotions
    When they show what seems to be warmth, joy, love and compassion it is more feigned than experienced and serves an ulterior motive. Outraged by insignificant matters, yet remaining unmoved and cold by what would upset a normal person. Since they are not genuine, neither are their promises. 
  • Incapacity for Love 
  • Need for Stimulation
    Living on the edge. Verbal outbursts and physical punishments are normal. Promiscuity and gambling are common. 
  • Callousness/Lack of Empathy
    Unable to empathize with the pain of their victims, having only contempt for others' feelings of distress and readily taking advantage of them. 
  • Poor Behavioral Controls/Impulsive Nature
    Rage and abuse, alternating with small expressions of love and approval produce an addictive cycle for abuser and abused, as well as creating hopelessness in the victim. Believe they are all-powerful, all-knowing, entitled to every wish, no sense of personal boundaries, no concern for their impact on others. 
  • Early Behavior Problems/Juvenile Delinquency
    Usually has a history of behavioral and academic difficulties, yet "gets by" by conning others. Problems in making and keeping friends; aberrant behaviors such as cruelty to people or animals, stealing, etc. 
  • Irresponsibility/Unreliability
    Not concerned about wrecking others' lives and dreams. Oblivious or indifferent to the devastation they cause. Does not accept blame themselves, but blames others, even for acts they obviously committed. 
  • Promiscuous Sexual Behavior/Infidelity
    Promiscuity, child sexual abuse, rape and sexual acting out of all sorts. 
  • Lack of Realistic Life Plan/Parasitic Lifestyle
    Tends to move around a lot or makes all encompassing promises for the future, poor work ethic but exploits others effectively. 
  • Criminal or Entrepreneurial Versatility
    Changes their image as needed to avoid prosecution. Changes life story readily. 
  • Antisocial Personality Disorder Overview (Written by Derek Wood, RN, BSN, PhD Candidate)
  • People with this disorder appear to be charming at times, and make relationships, but to them, these are relationships in name only. They are ended whenever necessary or when it suits them, and the relationships are without depth or meaning, including marriages. They seem to have an innate ability to find the weakness in people, and are ready to use these weaknesses to their own ends through deceit, manipulation, or intimidation, and gain pleasure from doing so.

  • Note: Being a Psychopath/Sociopath is having a personality disorder, not a mental or physical disorder. Mostly recognizable by those being victimized.

    Subject: your trip????

    I need to take a trip to VA very soon...what are your
    plans re visiting CA?  Let me know ASAP so I can
    schedule something.  Daddy has had yet another TSA
    (small stroke) - which invariably leads to a big one, 
    and mother continues the downward slide.

    Elder Abuse - American Psychological Association - elizabeth's actions (2)

    (Note:  While Elizabeth was still in Ohio and mother was bedridden, she would often call and tell the caregiver to hold the phone up next to her mother's ear so she could talk to her.  Then, she would tell mother that she was going to move her to Ohio.  Mother would become extremely upset and start crying.  This happened over and over again.)  




    (Note: Elizabeth would hold mother's hand and forecfully smack her arm while she was talking to her.  It was so bad at one point that the caregiver called the sheriff's office to report Elizabeth's violent behavior and was told, "We were told not to respond to calls from caregivers at this address.")

    (Note: Our neighbor heard Daddy screaming "She's trying to kill me!" and came running.  Daddy had long since forgotten how things worked and was on a walker.  Nonetheless, Elizabeth decided that he should mow the yard on the riding mower.  She had put him on it and started it for him.  He had become confused and had driven it up underneath the back deck.  He had gotten stuck and his whole body and mower was jammed so tight that the mower would not move anymore even though he still had his foot on the gas.  Elizabeth was standing near the deck watching when our neighbor arrived and ran up underneath the deck.  One of the caregivers ran out of the house and helped the neighbor get him out from where he was wedged.  Daddy refused to go to the hospital, but shortly afterwards he ended up in the hospital with a staph infection from injuries and eventually was transferred to a nursing home for care.) 

    (Note: Daddy's neurologist told Daddy and Elizabeth that under no circumstances should Daddy drive again.  We did not learn this until many months later.  Elizabeth continued to allow Daddy to drive.  Barbara, who was the court appointed guardian/conservator of mother at this time, did not renw the insurance or tag on the car which was in mother's name.  Daddy kept driving.  I purchased a boot and had it put on the steering wheel.  Daddy called the man who did little favors for him in return for 17 acres of free hay (Steve Pennnington) to come over and cut off the boot.  It ended up on my doorstep the next morning.  Barbara then had a state trooper come talk to Daddy about not driving anymore, and he said the wouldn't.  Shortly after that Elizabeth bought a van (her name but mother and daddy's money) and gave Daddy the keys.  Within 24 hours, Daddy had driven the van through the back of the garage, through the back room of the house, and off the deck.  The neighbor heard the commotion and came running.  Daddy was making donuts around the barn.  His foot was stuck on the gas and he could not figure out how to get it off.  The neighbor ran alongside the van, snatched open the door and pulled Daddy to safety.  Elizabeth had the van repaired and brought back.  Daddy still had the keys.)




    (Note: Mother was on oxygen 24/7 plus oxygen treatment every 2 hours.  Her lungs would not expel.  Barbara received a frantic phone call from the caregiver at the time.  She said that Elizabeth had ordered her to take mother out to get some fresh air and park her on the porch under the pear tree while Daddy mowed the yard.  Everything was in full bloom, the air was thick with pollen, and mother was having difficulty breathing even in the house.  To have moved her outdoors under the pear tree at this critical juncture could have been lethal for her.   Barbara -the guardian at the time-told the caregiver absolutely not.)

    (Note: Mother was past walking and talking.  Elizabeth had come down from Ohio for a visit.  While the caregiver was in the bathtub, Elizabeth attempted to move mother and "accidentally" dropped her.  She left her on the floor without telling the caregiver until the caregiver came into the room sometime later and found mother curled up on the floor.  Elizabeth went back to Ohio and the caregiver did not tell Barbara or me what happened.  Barbara was there a couple of hours later and mother had her eyes closed and was very quiet.  The next morning when Barbara noticed that mother was moaning and crying, she querried the caregiver who told Barbara what  had happened.  Barbara called the ambulance to take her to the hospital.  X-rays revealed no broken bones, but contusions around the hips and pelvic area  -which may or may not have happened as a result of the fall.  As a side note, the 5-day-a-week caregiver was TERRIFIED of Elizabeth and frozen with fear when Elizabeth and Daddy were together.  As mother has said a thousand times, referring to Elizabeth and Daddy, "I can't fight both of them.")

    (Note: Remy called Barbara and told her that Elizabeth had defiantly taken mother to WalMart (without Barbar's permission).  This resulted in a major medical setback for Mother.  She ended up on antibiotics for 18 days.)  She also took her to get ice cream (windows down in the car, air blowing in mother's face).  They were gone for 3 hours.  Mother ended up coughing and congested,  which rolled right into a diagnosis of congestive heart failure.  She never recovered from that setback and began a slow decline in health from that point until her death.)

    Emotional or psychological abuse can range from name-calling or giving
    the "silent treatment" to intimidating and threatening the individual.
    When a family member, a caregiver, or other person behaves in a way
    that causes fear, mental anguish, and emotional pain or distress, the
    behavior can be regarded as abusive. Emotional and psychological abuse
    can include insults and threats. It can also include treating the
    older person like a child and isolating the person from family,
    friends, and regular activities-either by force or threats or through
    manipulation.

    elizabeth/Woody

    Elizabeth lives in Preble County in Ohio.  Barbara would fly into
    Cincinnatti a couple of times each year and Elizabeth would pick her
    up at the airport.  The two of them would drive to Pennington Gap to
    visit mother and daddy.  On one of those visits, Barbara asked
    Elizabeth why her husband never went to the farm to visit our parents.
     According to Elizabeth, her husband, Woody, could not bear to see how
    daddy bullied and demeaned mother, so he never went to their house.
    Elizabeth said that when the time came, she would probably take daddy
    to Ohio to live with her and Woody.  Barbara asked her how she could
    do that when Woody hated daddy.  She replied, “Woody will do what I
    tell him.  After all, he knows what I choose to tell him.”  Also, when it was 
    brought up that Woody might have to tolerate dad, elizabeth said,
     "Woody will just have to put his big boy pants on.". Sure
    enough, just a few months after mother died, Elizabeth took daddy to
    Ohio.  Over the next year, she and Woody came several times and
    emptied out the house of all furniture, dishes, bedding, pictures, and
    anything of value.  They also took everything of value in the barn,
    including daddy's tractor and farm implements, lawn mower, tiller,
    mother's car, their rv, and a small utility trailer.  What they left
    was a basement filled with trash.

    Elizabeth had the electricity turned off in the house when she moved
    daddy and the basement is now filled with mold.  This turned off the
    dehumidifier and the basement, most of which is underground, wicked up
    the moisture.  ServPro estimates that it will take over $14,000 to
    repair the damage the mold has caused.  We are currently dealing with
    attorneys to get this taken care of since Elizabeth refuses to allow
    any of daddy's money to be used to pay to have it fixed, even though
    it was his responsibility as a life estate holder to keep the property
    in repair.  (Note: As stated in other parts of this blog, Elizabeth
    took our father to the attorney 4 years after she knew had had mental
    issues and 2 years after he had been diagnosed with vascular dementia
    and Alzheimer's and had him disown our mother and his other 2 children
    and leave everything to Elizabeth.)

    Contesting Mother's Will----- April 2010

    In April of 2010 I attempted to contest Mother's will. Logic being that Mother had always wanted the assets of the marriage to be split equally between the children. 


    In May, 2007 Judge McElyea's court stripped mother of all rights when she was placed in guardianship. In April 2007 elizabeth sit with Daddy and disinherited Mother and of course Barbara and I. The logic of elizabeth was that Mother was likely to pass away first and her will gave her half to Daddy. Once Mother died, her will passed to Daddy and elizabeth was set to take all of both. 


    When we attempted to have Daddy's will thrown out because of Vascular Dementia we were told too bad, at any given point within 24 hours he could have had clarity of vision to change his will. 


    Judge Cynthia Kinser, Adam Kinser's mother pinioned from the bench that intent of the will over shadowed the content. 


    Judge McElyea said she didn't care about intent, but was Mother competent at the time of the will? Answer was yes. Please pay Mr. Kinser $450. and have a nice day. 


    There was no way out. If she was competent at the time of the will, the will was solid. If she was incompetent at the time of the will it couldn't be successfully contested.
