Will serving time help a sociopath?

No. Sociopaths have no conscience and no remorse; they are also unable to learn emotionally. Instead of seeing punishment as in some sense fair, they generally treat it as 'evidence' that the world is against them and victimizing them ...

The only effective help targets the actual personality disorder, which is extremely hard to treat.

What do you do if your husband is a sociopath?

Get away from him and the relationship. Tell him to get help, or lose you. As simple as that, and I mean intense therapy. If he thinks he has no problems and doesn't want help, then help yourself and do what ever you need to do to prepare for leaving him, and divorcing him. Find someone to stay with, break off all contact (which is hard because a sociopath's victim often becomes almost addicted to them and the cycle of sociopath abuse). Good luck, and run as fast as you can to save yourself. It's very rare for a sociopath to ever change or want to change, even meds and therapy rarely help them.

Would a sociopath help his family out in a hostile situation say his mom being sexually assaulted?

It depends on how it would benefit him. I helped both my sister and my mum when they were abused, mainly because it would make my home life more bearable. It generally depends on the wants of the sociopath. If they need you then they will help you.
