@@evacastillo8782 the owner of the video can pin a comment after the video is uploaded when it's private. There is something called UA-cam studio which allows you to do it .
Well id say quite shocking & surprising
can you spot something? 10 people who did this crimes against human kind... 3 are Jewish. Wake up liberals
Elizabeth Holmes' fake voice is hilarious.
"I am a robot. I have no imperfections."
Fun fact, even Charles Manson stated that sciencwtology is a crazy religion
Funnier Fact : Scientology isn't a religion, it is a cult.
Fun fact: all religions are crazy. The big ones just aren't as aggressive as small ones of je scientology because they have more followers and way more money and real estate...like the Catholic cult. And seriously...what it is telling is as nutty as what scientology tells....and it exists for so little ng that it doesn't have to control its followers...they control each other now...nothing special for an over 2,000 year old cult....
And we all have invested so much credibility in Mr. Manson!
Hitler, netanyahu, dick chenney, george w bush, Stalin, Pol Pot THIS LIST IS RIDICULOUS!
@@areiorum Pretty sure Hitler was a psychopath. That's not the same.
Lack of empathy? That is a requirement for many CEOs and Insurance Claim Adjusters
Let's add Shareholders to the list. Those whiny babies don't work for the companies they demand so much money from.
this comment was worded oddly but on the same hand you kinda countered your own comment within its self. Exactly a lack of empathy is a trait of a lot of CEO’s because a lot of them have anti social personality or npd. it’s not required it just so happens ceos have a lack of empathy that’s how they got to where they are.
Psychos also can be doctors, police, officials, bankers, inventors. All im this job done, so they can influence their dominance to their clients, enemies, coworkers ect.
@@smpiano6605You can’t afford shares can you?
@@effkay3691 You're the type to say people on welfare or unemployment are lazy (granted some certainly are) yet here you are defending shareholders even though they're not actually working for a company and raking in cash. Tell me how these people aren't parasites?
Jim Jones. Don't drink the Kool -Aid!
Trump would charge you for the koolaid
The blacks drank it
Not Kool-Aid; it was Flavor-Aid in Jonestown.
@@BCTMBfinally someone gets it right. People will say it makes no difference but facts are facts and they bought the cheap stuff.
@@SlashinatorZ We don't drink Kool-Aid. Trump gave us jobs, peace, and prosperity. Reality sucks dunnit?
I don’t believe for one second that Anna Sorokin feels badly about what she did. She will do it again. She will just get better about covering her tracks.
The rapid blinking as she denies ever doing it again is a dead giveaway.
The cultural fascination with her is mainly due to her being upfront and unapologetic about what she is. Most cluster B personality disordered people play the victim card and try to manipulate everyone into feeling sorry for them but she doesn't pretend to care at all.
"i'm not sorry. I'm sorry i got caught"
Right, sitting there looking like a demon ready to strike again.
@@fawziekefli2273 the fact she smiled shes not sorry
Wow, it’s been 3 years since the infamous Bernie Madoff died.
We still have no sympathy for him after what he did in the past.
can you spot something? 10 people who did this crimes against human kind... 3 are Jewish. Wake up liberals
He was not prosecuted for robbing US. he was prosecuted for robbing THEM. The rich.
With the liberal degenerates calling for Israel to be destroyed, is it any wonder that they attack Jews?
and don't forget his sea hag wife ruth, who hid millions after bernie got arrested. she knew the full scale of the damage bernie did to charities, to children, to everybody, yet she hid the money for her own use. express ticket to hell, track one.
Madoff is sharing a single bed with Jeffrey Epstein in Hell. Madoff works in the accounting department, Epstein does laundry and Jeffrey Dahmer mops floors but uses his own head on a stick.
150 years? that's absurd considering people have gotten way less for MURDER.
Madoff and Holmes ripped off the rich. Society’s outrage is skewed based on the social status of the victims.
It's America. Money more important than life there
You are ready grasshopper, fore you now understand that you can kill who you want but you can’t mess with people’s money (or dog).
THAT'S WHAT I SAID!
@@carlharris4927 Brody you can take my money and I'll make peace with it. They'll never find the remains of the person who hurts my dog.
I don't see my private school principal here.
Wahhhhh
😂
She may have taught Jim Jones!
Says worse. Not best.
Susan Smith killing her children blaming it on a black man who supposedly car jacked her then confess she was having an affair with someone who didn’t want kids. She would fake crying and not shed a tear. I knew right off the bat she did it.
The car took 3 minutes to sink, she just stood there and watched. I've seen interviews with her husband years later, that poor guy really loved those kids and is a broken man.
She is way up there on the POS list.
Same! You could see it right away.
I was expecting the list to be full of killers. To my disappointment most spots on this list consisted of non violent scam artist. Richard Ramirez could have easily made this list. BTK could have easily made this list. Jeffery Dahmer could have easily made this list. But we got some non violent con artist that are somehow "worse" or "on par" with actual serial killers and a woman who made attempts on her kids lives and succeeded in killing one of them.
Oh yeah the old a black guy did defense
Add Karla Homolka to that list
We live not far from where that all happened. She's been out of prison for a long time but all her neighbors know who she is. Must be hard ordering a pizza that you think might have broken glass in it. Sack of crap.
@@dicksonfranssen I hate that she was given a new name to protect her identity. What about the victims? What about her poor sister? That story still infuriates me.
As soon as I asked myself what about Elizabeth Holmes, sure enough, she with her freaky, unblinking eyes popped up on my screen. 😟
Should Jim Jones go on this list or would he be classified as a psychopath?
Right? She admitted the wide, unblinking eyes (the psychotic stare) and the deep, husky voice were completely fake Lol
@@gregevans6044 I wonder why she did that?? Especially the deep voice. I heard she was trying to sound masculine and intimidating, so that she'd be taken seriously. In my opinion, after the whole situation, faking the voice was even more embarrassing.
Jim Jones was a cult leader.
@@RemnantPriest Yes, of course I know that. So was Charles Manson and he's Number 1. I'm throwing the question out there if Jim would be considered psychotic or sociopathic or...both and should be on the list?
How Ruja Ignatova didn't get on this list is a mystery. The woman is literally the biggest con artist in history
It continues to boggle my mind as to how in the hell Elizabeth Holmes was able to hold off investors and companies for SO freaking long regarding Theranos and the worthless Edison machine. If it had worked, it would have absolutely been a game changer for the future of testing blood!
She could’ve avoided her sentence if she had been honest about her products, but no. She just _had_ to lie about it, didn’t she?
@@Jeremiah_Rivers76 Exactly! The idea is absolutely a fabulous one! With all of that financial backing, and arguably some of the best minds in the country, maybe they could have solved the problem! But no…
She didn’t want to get caught and her investors didn’t want to feel tricked into falling for it. It’s a crucial part of any investment scam. I think Madoff made the most out of that type of situation. He knew what to say and what to do.
That woman is not only a wretched scammer. She's also crazy.
Humans are so gullible...especially if it involves getting something (read: $$$) for nothing. I can't wait to pitch my car antenna sharpener!
Never trust someone with the last name "Madoff" because that's exactly what he did with your money.
Came for this... 😂
😂
This is unnecessarily hilarious 😂😂😂😂
And never let someone with the last name of "Hitler" run your country because that's exactly what he did to others.
The sons were honest ... they called the cops.
It's incredible that all ten of the worst sociopaths to have EVER LIVED committed their crimes within the last 75 years or so. i would have thought Hitler, Stalin and Genghis Khan would have made the list. Thanks for setting me straight, WatchMojo.
And they’re all American….
And Mao, and Pol Pot, and Idi Amin, and...
Those monsters were more likely psychopaths. That's not the same.
At least the Madoff bros. Have a conscience.
bro they planned it out, he knew the noose was tightening and it was all over so in order for them to avoid any bullshit they "rat" him out like they were just as shocked as anyone else
Unfortunately one of them unalived his self while the other succumbed from cancer. Both stress related factors.
Makes me wonder how much they benefitted from the ponzi scheme. It’d be hard to believe that they saw none of the ill gotten booty.
Top 10 lawyers who committed crimes & showed NO sympathy
Top 10 celebrities/influencers who were convicted & still showed zero sympathy
"Worst Sociopath" The way they operate, we haven't seen who that might be. The cunning nature helps them to move undectected.
Diane Downs didn't actually "rush" her kids to the hospital. She drove very very slowly to increase the likelihood of the kids' deaths.
The documentary film on Ted Bundy played by Zac Efron in the movie shows exactly how much of a monster he is to the point, that the actor himself i think said he wished to never ever play such a role again and Charles Manson man cult leaders are always self explanatory for their behaviours and personality
Sadly, this list was too short.
The character Sugar "Segura" in No Country for Old men, is considered the very best acted out psychopath in movies by psychologists! 😮
Chigurh
This keeps getting repeated. I have actually read the original article by the psychologist besides the articles written about it and tiktok shorts. The psychologist stated that in No Country for Old Men was a very realistic representation of a TYPE of psychopaths. This type was a primary prototypical psychopath. I am not studied in psychology but I think this means that Chigur is a good representation of someone with genetic disposition for psychopathy, exhibits overt narcissism and a high score on the psychopathy checklist.The psychologist compares Chighur to real life hitman Richard Kuklinski in a passing comment.
Nowhere is it however stated that he is the most realistic depiction of psychopaths in general. The psychologist also mentioned Gordon Gekko from the movie Wall Street as an realistic example of a nonviolent psychopath. Gekko is described as a primary manipulative type of pychopath. This means that Gekko is similar Chighur in how his psychopathy shows in his affect and interpersonal relationships. Gekko however differs in that his lifestyle is not that of a classic psychopath unlike Chigur who is a career criminal. The psychologist compares Gekko in passing to Bernie Maddof who is number 10 on this Watchmojo video.
PS:I am not studied in psychology so I am just repeating what I am getting from the article.
@@justtocomment5848 The distinguishing between what is called a 'psychopath' and a 'sociopath' is an interesting read if you look it up. I worked in mental health for 40+ years and 'met' both in my professional capacity but always recall the words from an elderly psychiatrist when I was a younger fellow during my training. He said he didn't know what was wrong with the term "a nasty bastard with no end to their selfishness". Fair enough.
You forgot the guy who wrote Baby Shark
Sam Bankman-Fried should be on this list.
Pablo Escobar and Jim jones could also be on here
Top 12 list.
Top 10 CEOs who AREN'T sociopaths
Name ten.
I doubt you could find as many as 10.
*Crickets*
Instead they're psychopaths.
Wow 😳. And that Thumbnail, she was like an Evil Betty White...
They called her
" The Golden Girl"😦
Amazing video Rebecca from watch mojo of worst sociopaths that ever lived in human history,fantastic job.
Brody a lot of people on this list committed non violent theft crimes. How are they worse or even as bad as the two serial killers and the woman who killed her own children? Or the zookeeper who actually paid someone to kill his competition while abusing his own animals. I'm sorry but there is a HUGE difference between duping people out of their money and killing people.
I always laugh when the tiger king says hes never gonna financially recover from this.😅😅
what do they mean "allegedly" abused animals? I have zero time for people like him.
See I can see how that guy made this list because he actually tried to get someone killed. All the non violent thieves in this list kind of confused me.
I'd also add David Karesh to this list
Elizabeth Holmes has the crazy eyes going on
Madoff took ALL of these people's life savings...after years of hard work and left with nothing! Jeez😢
I wonder which intergalactic space prison Elizabeth Holmes is in?

Informative
I bet the worst are the ones we never hear about.
The famous indie game Granny was said to have been inspired by the case of Dorothea Puente don't you guy think they're the same
That’s actually pretty cool if it’s true.

At last someone explaining Elizabeth Holmes for what she really is.
I remember reading about Diane Downs....so sad. What mother does that for a guy? I'm glad the prosecutor and his wife ended up adopting the two surviving kids.
I didn’t realise his sons had actually reported him to the FBI. Presuming they’re not totally heartless sociopaths the selves, it must have got to the stage that they knew the Ponzi would collapse and they would be looking at long sentences themselves. Still, their father died in prison. How that must feel to know you put him there.
This list should not have included serial killers because that category goes without saying. Or cult leaders.
my cousin used to babysit Diane Downs's kids back in the day.
I still remember watching our local new about her. it's kinda
crazy that she would do that to her own kids. that happened
in the Eugene/Springfield area of Oregon in case anyone wanted
to know.
All that and the creepy notes at the end 😳
Recommend watching 'The Dropout'
A BBC docu-drama about Elizabeth Holmes and Theranos. Its great.
I remember the death house land lady. That was in Sacramento. She killed her elderly residents and buried them in her yard so she could keep collecting their money.
False. My ex isn’t on this list.
She’s (Sorkin) is not sorry, well I’ll take that back. She’s sorry she got caught.
Sorokin is an example of 101 in reading body language , when she said she had learned from her mistakes and wouldn't do it again she blinks to the right which is her brain's creative side meaning she was making it up😅
They stare while they are lying and pulling information out of you.
Ted Bundy also said, in one interview shortly before his demise, that any estimation of his kill total should have another zero added to it.
Buddy was more than a sociopath and I believe he most likely killed more than what is known as you stated he said. He was one effed up guy.
Where is Amber Heard?
I had a strange feeling someone was going to bring her up😂
She's definitely awful but not a sociopath.
Watchmojo got that between their eyes. No joke
It's all in the eyes. Note the amount of white area above/below the iris. This is most pronounced when they are under pressure or excited. Also, they toss the word "Sociopath," around quite a bit when in many cases, it's Psychopathy. There's a fundamental difference.
Billy McFarland totally lies as he pretends that he is sorry. He came out of the slammer and went right back to similar schemes.
How to know a rich sociopath: The person is featured on the cover of Forbes Magazine
fire fest guy lol u made him look like hannibal lecture
Diane Downs did not rush her wounded children to the hospital, she took her time. I've watch plenty of documentaries about her. She was trying to make sure they died.
Wow.
The first clue was someone on the road noticed her putting along a 3MPH on the way to Emergency.
@@dicksonfranssen Oh.
You’re only allowed to lie to you customers not your investors.
I was concerned for a moment.😮 But after watching this, I noticed, that I did not make it on this list. All is good.👍😊
Lehman Brothers
Morrrrre of these lists!
This Anna Sorokin should also have been arrested for being too old to still speak in Valley Girl Talk, including that awful Vocal Fry! She's not in eighth grade anymore, at least I don't think so. But when she also continues to put the word "like" into her sentences, inserting the word in-between every other spoken word I think she probably is 9 years old!
I will never financially recover from this 😂
You forgot the Jonestown Massacre
I remember watching that with my grandpa - particularly, and my grandma when I would stay with them.
And, that's a documentary I've watched only a few times...there's a lot of tense moments, especially when they're preparing to escape when the late governor Leo Ryan arrived to help get whoever they could, out...and from that point on.
But, with murdering those misled, but poor people, it almost breaks me upon hearing the children and babies cry and beg to not drink that "Flavor-Aid" or get it injected...
How about Chris Chan?
Extremely degenerate but idk if I'd say sociopathic
I don't think he's in that list
I just tried to look up Kris Chan who is that? I’m just getting like three different of those names. One says it was a female that was a child molester of her own child, but then the charges were dismissed.
He's not female, trying to get women by pretending to be transgender
@@paulajelen1351 Chris Chan is the nickname for an autistic transgender internet personality who was once imprisoned for committing incestuous acts on their elderly mother
Someone oughta teach Watchmojo what SOCIOPATH actually means all of them are from RECENT history.
You do it …..
If they included world leaders and politicians they’d dominate the list
The title of this is severely overblown.
What about Dan Schneider?
If you think Dan Schneider is bad enough to make top ten, then you don't know very many bad people.
Schneider wasn't even as bad as the other people working for nickelodeon...
It's bizarre he is focus when 2 others were way worse
Puente watched Arsenic and Old Lace too many times.
Most are amoral.
The killer a psychopath.
Few are sociopaths.
As with many, if not all serial killers, Dorothea Puente had a horrible upbringing. This led to her inability to feel empathy or compassion, including for her own children. She had several and did not raise a single one of them. All of them have been taken away from her. She had no motherly instincts probably because she never got it from her own mother.
Never heard of Downs. Frightening.
2:28 "I'm Human too .... I am a victim .....!!"
Anyone else laugh out loud at this fool ??? "I scammed them , then they told the police , and now im in jail ...... im the victim" ............ fkn hilarious
Jodi Arias.
Meh, clickbait - my mother wasn't listed.
PUKE, PUKE!!! People keep saying Bundy was an attractive man. Yuk! On what planet?
Compared to most serial killers, he was.
Planet Shit For Brains
Part 2!?
This is not a video about sociopaths. It's about con artists and murderers. The people in this video are not all sociopaths. Sociopath has a specific meaning. It does not apply to psychopaths, or narcissists or people who just have low moral standards.
Stealing $300,000 from rich people doesn't necessarily make you a sociopath.
I've always have a difficult time distinguishing the difference between sociopath and psychopath, both share the lack of emotions for others, and the inability to process the understanding of others emotions.
Both use manipulation and verbal control over others, but I guess a psychopath will tend to enjoy sexual control and the sadistic drive to inflict pain both physical and mental
" Bundy was an *attractive* man ".
( pauses for 5 to 10 seconds ).
My @$$. 😒
Not in my book, he was NOT. 🤨
In the 70s he was too his victim
What all these people have in common is that they're incredibly boring. Obsessively self-involved people always are.
Imagine getting on an 8 hour flight with Elizabeth Holmes and you can't change your seat. I'd grab my carry-on and lock myself in the bathroom. Shut the #$@= up for just one second would you!
I completely forgot Joe exotic even existed.
Yeah, very oblivious indeed...
Greg Heffley should’ve had a mention on this list
I'm disappointed my brother wasn't on this list. Let's be honest. We all know at list one. Maybe not to this level but everyone has encountered one at some point.
Everybody in this country knows Donald Trump. He’s definitely a sociopath.
My cousin! Even his mom doesn't know or care what happened to him. Thanks for leaving me with the lease and your dog jackass.
Skyhooks 1984.
RIP Shirl.

I cant be the only one who thought that Billy McFarland looked like Seth McFarland. I checked on google and they are not related but still the similarities are a near miss😅
Amazing how these people can rationalize their predatory behaviour in hindsight. Don't turn your back on them!
Teflon Don is not on here cause he would want 5% of the profits for using his image!
elisabeth holmes have such a "big dude voice"..... 😐
Theresa Knorr. Look into it at your own risk.
Spax3 is considered one of the worst in the internet due to many factors--
Manipulation, grooming, constant harassment, stalking, placing death threats and claiming to be a mental health advocate just to excuse his behavior.
