If you ever get the opportunity to read what people admit, unprompted, during these "conversations" then you'll know why they'll never go away. Stuff like, "yeah i stepped on a kitten's head once, but i was young... No i don't see why anyone would have a problem with that."

No one wants that guy working at the cia.

Are you sure? Post 9/11 the CIA decided they needed to be in the business of kidnapping and torturing. They didn't seem to have any trouble finding employees to do it.
Yeah, they need people who will do the most inhumane things to other human beings, not animals.
Soldiers need to kill people, but you don't want sociopathic soldiers - you want the opposite: Someone who can handle their emotions, not someone who hides from them, runs from them, or tries to bury or ignore them. The latter are not stable or reliable under stress.
Than how do you explain the marine corps? The average enlisted marine is a sociopath. You have to be to get through the crucible.
yeah CIA never has a history of doing terrible things and causing harm to people. Why would they hire pyschopaths?
