Incheon Songdo Homemade Gun Murder Case Suspect Not Target of Psychopath Diagnosis Test
The police announced today (October 4) that the suspect in the homemade gun murder case that occurred in Incheon Songdo was not classified as a target for a diagnosis test for antisocial personality disorder (psychopathy).
A police official explained at a regular press briefing, "As a result of the profiler's interview, it was determined that the suspect did not fall under the target for the psychopath test, so the test was not conducted."
