Ok I can give you my experience with the matter, and trust, TV has this very much confused. I will keep it short and simple:
every sociopath is a narcissist, not every narcissist is a sociopath.
A sociopath is NOT a psychopath.
A sociopath is a personality disorder.
A psychopath is a sociopath PLUS psychosis/delusions.
think of the son of sam. David Berkowitz already was unable to truly feel for his victims, PLUS he was psychotic, hearing his dog tell him to kill people.
not every psychotic is a psycopath. Most hallucinations and delusions are harmless.
Imagine you had a man with antisocial PERSONALITY...who took too many drugs and caught a substance induced psychosis? Now due to his narcissism he believes that ALL women belong to him when ever he wants? ALSO that they are ALL dirty whores? do you understand how he already possess the lack of empathy and consciounse to take a life, but now has the psychosis fueling it?
Sociopaths can and do kill. But it is often for personal reasons (see gain or revenge). There is nothing deluded about it.
I fear I am getting tl;dr. hope his brief synopsis helped.
