'Love Fraud' — Explaining sociopaths: Nature and nurture

In the third episode of Love Fraud on Showtime, while the producers try to find Richard Scott Smith, the con man who has defrauded multiple women, they also try to get inside his head.

However, they really do not explain how sociopaths become disordered, and why they do what they do. I in this episode of Lovefraud Live!, I'll fill in the blanks. This is a live streaming show, so ask your questions by chat and I will answer.
