Maybe because only three people died this trial didn't get the media attention it deserves?

Lane entered the courtroom wearing a button-down shirt, but took it off early in the hearing to reveal a white T-shirt with the word “killer” written on it, according to CNN affiliate WJW. The attire was similar what he was wearing when arrested by police shortly after the killings.

Given the opportunity to speak to the court, Lane made an obscene gesture at the victims’ families and spoke to them using explicit language, the station reported.

He smiled and smirked during much of the hearing, WJW reported, laughing when the prosecutor described him as an “evil person.”

Lane declined to allow his attorneys to present evidence on his behalf at the sentencing hearing before Geauga County Common Pleas Judge David L. Fuhry.

Lane pleaded guilty last month to three counts of aggravated murder, two counts of attempted aggravated murder and weapons-related charges in the February 27, 2012, shooting at Chardon High School in northeastern Ohio.

I remember, guess it's because I'm a Chardon resident.

I just had to say this monster has the devil in him and what he said to the families was more than despicable.

I encourage you to see the video of him making these comments.

It scares me that this thing was the offspring of neighbors.

Will there be more like him?

I know there will. More psychiatric screening might have saved the lives of the three vistims.

    More psychiatric screening could help, but it's something about our culture today.

    With all the guns Americans used to have back in the old days, this stuff never happened.

    The American people have mental problems of a very disturbing variety.

    Kids watch TV shows that mock values, glorify senseless violence, and make jokes about rape, incest, and bestiality.

    that's a short list.

    I live in the Cleveland area, and I saw that courtroom appearance on tv. I think his attorney put him up to it, just to make him seem so unstable that he needed a psychiatric hospital and not prison for years.

    This story was mentioned on all the major news media outlets.

    How much more media attetion do you think it should get? Enough to encourage more mentally disturbed people who want to be famous to kill a bunch of innocent people so their face can be plastered everywhere?

    Execute him. When you choose to take a life you're not worth trying to 'save' - Of course liberals will say he has mental health issues. They're not health issues you retards. He's a sociopath. Hes INCAPABLE of empathy. The ones who act on it need to be weeded out.
