But what if you run into a criminal that's completely amoral, and hence feels no guilt over his or her actions? Or what if you run into a criminal that believes that his end goals justify the means, and hence while he recognizes some of the means are harmful to other people, he doesn't feel guilty over them?
One or both of the above may well apply to Makishim.

That may be a problem for instant reading, but if you ask him to imagine himself committing crimes, and his response is abnormally calm, then by that society's standards you've got grounds to put him away. Probably.
