Psychopath and sociopath are pop psychology terms for various patterns of Antisocial Behavior. Even an individual diagnosed with Antisocial Personality Disorder is not considered mentally ill. Many prisoners have suicidal ideation during incarceration and frequently after release. It is not uncommon at all. Some of them even report suicidal ideation in order to get put in isolation or too get moved to a psychiatric facility. The point here is that "Psychopath with suicidal tendencies" is not a psychiatric diagnosis and could describe a large portion of the criminal population at any given time.
