Raskolnikov is a Sadistic Person

Raskolnikov is actually mad, just like the police Zamyotov thinks so. I found it extremely surprising that Raskolnikov almost said his crime. I personally think Raskolnikov is messed up in the head, just as I am sure every one else in my group would agree. I also find it strange that he gets so angry at a suicide attempt when he walks past the bridge...because he just killed two people like it was nothing, so why would he be so revolted by a suicide attempt? I find it even more shocking when he asks the workers why the blood is gone... That to me is very, very sadistic, he basically wanted to keep seeing the blood of the two people he killed as a reminder of the action he had done, and he wanted to keep that reminder. I think he is a psychopath. Contrary to this previous action, when Marmeladov was about to die, Raskolnikov was there, and when he did die, Raskolnikov left money for Marmeladov's family. When he carries out actions like this, they make me think he still has a little bit of a conscience, but I guess only for people that gave him something, because he killed two completely innocent people just because he did not like them. Another thing from the chapters I read this week that stood out to me other than Raskolnikov's extremely strange personality, is the peculiarity of Razhumikin's sudden "obsession" with Dunya, he is very attracted to her because of her beauty and confidence. Razhumikin even gets jealous when a doctor appreciates Dunya's beauty. Raskolnikov, on the other hand repeats to Dunya to call off her engagement.
