Mitch was a year behind in 1st grade, so a year older than the rest of the class. He became my friend so he could copy my answers. He introduced me to purposely missing the bus home and walking. But nothing worse. I heard that in his early 20s he was in jail for drunk driving manslaughter. Years later he died of an overdose, I doubt he made it out of his 20s.
Rick was a business associate. I bought and sold some products he had, nothing illegal. He was very intelligent and worldly, a navy veteran, with sociopathic tendencies, as in cold and heartlesss. One day he was approached by a warehouse manager to take stolen goods for resale from the warehouse, and splitting the profit. He made some good money for awhile until one of the people he was selling to turned him in and he ended up in jail. I don't know whatever became of him.
Paula was my boss in a law firm. She was in her early 40s and seemed to have had a mid-life crisis, divorced her husband, and became enamoured of expensive clothing and firm-financed travel.
She ended up moving to Seattle and becoming the head of IT of a mid-size law firm. She set up fake companies to bill the law firm, and ended up stealing hundreds of thousands of dollars. Most of it was spent on chlothes and cars. She was put away for a few years and, after a stay in a half-way house, she threw herself off a cliff.
David worked in the IT department of a well-known music industry company. I'd see him every once in awhile because my job involved liaisoning with IT people. He was in his early 40s, a popular guy who, for some reason, made me feel introverted or intimidated. One day, according to his co-workers, his wife called and he was upset and he had to go home. He was arrested that day for paedophilia -- he had been molesting children, male and female, after qaining the trust of their parents. He's still in jail after 8 years.
Except for Paula, all the above were probably sociopaths. Paula seemed high on a sense of newfound liberation from societal conventions, like Thelma and Louise.
