Abstract :

In the process of transition from thought to criminal action, what happens for a professional offender in his/her continuing desire to commit a crime is the strong attraction and lack or weakness of deterrents that lead to his or her reintegration into society. But why professional offenders are reluctant to use deterrents? Among the many reasons that can be listed, there are three cognitive factors: First, they do not judge and justify social issues except from their own point of view and logic. Second, they do not shy away from actions that bring harm to others and finally not only altruistic tendencies are often weak or absent, but they also suffer from some kind of emotional indifference in their interactions with other people. The present study, which sought to explain why and how this indifference occurred, seeks a cognitive explanation of the criminal transition path of the life of a professional criminal named Rudolf Franz Höss, introduced by the author as Rudolf Lang. A narrative that focuses on a few fundamental components: The process of crystallization of anti-social behaviors influenced by childhood experiences and memories, Lack of family, religious and social interests, The importance of risk components in different age periods and finally the formation of a criminal character and its evolution in the context of time.
