And Yet More on Fritzl.


Josef Fritzl is surely one of the most sophisticated sociopaths in recent history:

Experts have certified that Josef Fritzl is highly intelligent. The 73-year-old is regarded as an authoritarian figure. He repeatedly complained to the police about the fact that they were unable to track down his supposedly runaway daughter. He created, in the words of police chief Lang, "a perfectly constructed framework of lies."


The picture by Reuters shows the bathroom area of the basement where Elisabeth Fritzl and three of her children were held prisoner.
