T.J. Lane gained notoriety for his disgusting display in a courtroom after he committed a school shooting at Chardon High School in 2012. He killed three classmates, and when facing the victim’s parents, he took off his jacket to reveal a shirt that said “Killer” and gave them the middle finger.

He was sentenced to three life sentences and later escaped from jail with two inmates, Lindsey Bruce and Clifford Opperud. The trio broke out of a medium-security prison in Ohio by using a homemade ladder to scale the prison wall. They made the ladder out of materials they found in a warehouse they gained entry into. They later escaped on foot but were all caught within hours of their escape.
