The first problem with the article is that it shows a correlation. A correlation does not prove causation (even a 100% correlation).

The second problem with the article is that we don't know with certainty if these psychopaths' brains were the same at birth as they are now. We do know with certainty that the environment can change the structure of the brain (neuroplasticity).

Thus we have a nature/nurture debate.
