I would say he's sick, but psycho is just a better word for him [imo].. I'm not sure Peter really fits well into either sociopath or psychopath category. The difference are few and there's only one really major difference I can find. When psychopaths do a crime, it's planned and premeditated. When a sociopath does a crime, it's normally an impulsive act. We've seen both of Peter, though spmostly planning is his thing, barring Laura and Jennifer Blake. We've also seen both of Theo, he's planned this big scheme, so he's capable of planning, but then he did the impulse hand break to cover the lie, when he easily could've planned a story for a change like that, before or after it became an issue.

I'm not sure if that's simply because Jeff/media in general blurs the line because they don't know the difference. That shouldn't really apply to Jeff though, since Criminal Minds. He should know the difference. i dont even think jeff considers his fans knowing the difference sometimes. i really believe they say this is good, lets put it on tv and BOOM its there. to them its not sociopath vs psychopath. to them its CRAZY. or issues or just "villain".
