Summary first and then...

You think Raymond Reddington of The Blacklist is in Kohlberg's second stage, because even though he gives information that saves lives he does it to benefit himself and his own wants. He continually kills people or has them killed to benefit his needs. He does attempt to protect Agent Elizabeth Keen but I also think his motivation is to benefit himself in some way even though it has not yet been revealed. He is almost totally self-motivated which is characteristic of a stage two person. Etc.
