Secrets of Your Mind on Tonight

ABC has what appears to be a fascinating show on tonight at 10 ET/9 CST on brutal psycho-killer minds. I just saw it and it appears to be a mini-series, with the first episode airing last week (which I happened to miss).

In this segment, Dr. Adrian Raine, a neurocriminologist at the University of Pennsylvania, talks about the brain of a psychopath.

“One of the key differences that we find in the brains of psychopaths is that there is a structural impairment to the part of the brain called the amygdala,” he explained. “This is the part of the brain very much involved in the generation of emotions. It was structurally deformed in the psychopaths.”

Don’t forget to set up your DVRs.
