I seem to recall that law enforcement has a higher rate of sociopathy than the average. Let me find a reference/double check myself.

I found this[0] which on a cursory reading doesn't seem to support the above. There was also a pop-sci book[1] which seems to argue the above, but I don't know how much weight I put behind it (and I'm not curious enough to get the book and look for references.)

Does anyone know of any data or research to support or refute the claim "law enforcement has a higher rate of sociopathy than the general population"?
