We'll never figure out how to do it because it's unethical to experiment on humans. But even more damning than that, we don't have a good theory of mind that explains criminality. It's all half-assed woowoo nonsense meant to bolster this or that political ideology.

Right. And your comments here aren't pushing an agenda at all. Definitely not a bigoted, inhumane agenda.
