The OP looks like a criminal.
Have you ever heard of a chess player rated over 2000 commit a crime of any type

You almost had a good thread before THAT comment!
Robert Snyder, chess master/child molester.
Some say he sucked as a coach.

I hope quantumlee doesn't talk to his patients and his wife and children like he talks to some of the people on here.
Anyone rated over 2000 is probably a pederast.
OP asks for chess players over 2000 elo who have commited a crime of any type, then goes on to dismiss the answers given, then starts insulting others. So then, OP, what was the point of this thread if you're only going to be dismissive and belligerent?
"Kasparov bit a policeman and he was a little bit over 2000"
He was accused of doing it, but that is not the same thing as doing it...

"I would never bite anyone under the rank of general!" The Kasparov-defence.

I think we can say that there are not much serious criminals over 2000 rating and especially masters....so can we say a good understanding of chess goes along with a good and decent personality....
Statistics or unsound conclusion.

I think we (at least those of us who are rationally minded) can agree that it's too small of a group to draw any meaningful conclusions about such matters. And some of the crimes mentioned were pretty serious. But you dismiss those because they didn't have anything to do with chess or whatever.

Do you even eyeball?
What a ridiculous questions, inside this question the assumption is hidden that people who are good at chess are either:
A: no criminals
B: less likely to get caught.
Where do you base these assumptions on? Is there a special magical power that if you reach 2000 suddenly you can fraud everyone you like because people don't suspect you? The question from the OP is bullsh**.
There is no correlation here. Intelligence and chess proficiency do not predict moral behavior. And where is the civility in this discussion ?
Korchnoi defected from the Soviet Union. That was a crime there. lol
