On a day another deadly shooting took place at a school across the country, Jesse Osborne, the teenager responsible for a shooting at a South Carolina elementary school in 2016, was sentenced to life in prison.
Judge Lawton McIntosh handed down the sentence in Anderson after tearful, heart-wrenching statements from family members of Jacob Hall, the 6-year-old first-grader who Osborne mortally wounded on a playground at Townville Elementary School.
Osborne was 14 at the time and is 17 now.
He has 10 days to appeal his sentence.
“We’re very disappointed in the result, but the courts will undoubtedly have to continue dealing with sentencing juveniles to life without parole and will have to continue to deal with the issue of school shootings,” said Frank Eppes, Osborne’s lead attorney.
Filled with emotion of their own, Osborne’s family members portrayed the teenager as a victim of abuse at the hands of his father, Jeffrey Osborne, the 47-year-old man who Jesse Osborne shot and killed before driving 3 miles to the school in rural Upstate South Carolina on Sept. 28, 2016.
Osborne pleaded guilty in December to killing his father and Jacob, and to attempted murder related to trying to kill other students and a teacher on the playground. This week’s hearing was mandated by state law because of his age at the time of the crimes. The judge considered the circumstances of the crimes, Osborne’s maturity level, his home and family life, and whether it is believed he can be rehabilitated.
“This is the sentence that we hoped for and that these crimes called for,” said Solicitor David Wagner. “You can’t come into our community, into our schools, and do what he did. I hope this sends a message to anyone else who would think about doing something like this.”
Osborne spent 13 or 14 hours a day alone in a basement or bedroom that had little natural light and was in “total isolation” in the months before the shooting, according to his grandfather Tommy Osborne.
The teen had been expelled from middle school after bringing a hatchet and a machete in his backpack, and he was taking online classes at home. He normally would have gone to his grandparents’ house after school to do homework and have a meal, but he didn’t see them as often then, according to testimony Thursday in the Anderson County Courthouse.
His father owned a chicken farm, but he was having financial trouble and had borrowed money from his family. Jeffrey Osborne had a temper, and especially when he drank, he became dark and threatening, according to testimony from his family and a psychiatrist who saw Jesse after the shooting.
Tommy Osborne testified that Jeffrey, his son, had once threatened him when Jeffrey was under the influence of alcohol.
“After that, I made sure I had some kind of protection,” Tommy Osborne testified. “I carried a .38.”
And Jeffrey Osborne did more than threaten his family, according to testimony. His son, Jesse, told his grandparents that his dad had “hit him with a ball bat.” Ryan Brock, Jesse’s half-brother, testified earlier that Jeffrey Osborne was horribly abusive to Jesse.
“He would make him pull his pants down… get sticks, belts, whatever he could find, and just start whaling on Jesse,” Brock said. “I could hear the screams throughout the house.”
Jesse was mostly alone with no friends except a group of people he communicated with on the internet, according to testimony from his grandfather.
The portrait of Jesse Osborne that was presented Thursday was starkly different from the one prosecutors presented earlier in the week.
Prosecutors described him as the boy who planned the Townville school shooting for days and maybe weeks. The boy who videoed himself combing his hair just before the shooting and saying that he needed to “look fabulous” because of what he was about to do. The boy who hoped to kill dozens more than he did, according to messages attributed to him.
Late Thursday, prosecutors recalled psychiatrist James Ballenger to the stand. Ballenger already said he was “pessimistic” about how much good treatment would do for Jesse Osborne. He was asked again Thursday about whether Osborne can be rehabilitated.
“I certainly think he is dangerous and I think he will remain dangerous,” Ballenger said. “Anything under God’s green earth is possible, but I wouldn’t say (rehabilitation) is likely.”

Alex McKinney More News
A transgender teenager accused of opening fire with a friend in a Denver-area charter school in May to exact revenge on classmates who bullied him pleaded guilty on Friday to murder and attempted murder charges, prosecutors said.
Alec McKinney, 16, who has been held without bond since the May 7 rampage that left one student dead and eight others wounded, pleaded guilty to 17 criminal counts, including conspiracy and weapons charges, said Douglas County District Attorney George Brauchler.
Alec McKinney is accused along with Devon Erickson, 19, of carrying out the shooting at the Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) School in Highlands Ranch, Colorado.
An 18-year-old student, Kendrick Castillo, was fatally shot when he charged one of the shooters, police said.
The Colorado Public Defender’s Office, which represents McKinney said it does not comment on its cases outside court.
Erickson pleaded not guilty last month to 44 felony counts and is set to go on trial in May.
According to an arrest warrant affidavit, the pair armed themselves with three handguns and a 22-caliber rifle stolen from a gun safe owned by Erickson’s parents.
Both teens consumed cocaine before storming the school, the affidavit said.
Alec McKinney was born female and told police he was in a “pre-op transitioning phase,” and planned the shooting to get back at classmates who had bullied him for being transgender, according to court documents.
McKinney said he had enlisted Erickson to help him carry out the plot, police said.
In December, McKinney’s lawyers unsuccessfully argued to have his case transferred to juvenile court, arguing that he had a troubled childhood, including witnessing domestic violence by his father against his mother.
In denying that motion, Judge Philip Holmes said in a written order that while Alec McKinney “has experienced serious trauma in his life,” the alleged crimes were so serious that he should be tried as an adult.
McKinney, who is scheduled to be sentenced on May 18, faces a maximum sentence of life in prison with the possibility of parole after serving 40 years of his term because he was a juvenile when the crimes were committed.
Erickson, who was an adult when the crimes were committed, faces life without the possibility of parole if he is convicted of murder, or the death penalty if prosecutors decide to seek capital punishment.
The juvenile suspect in last year’s STEM school shooting in Highlands Ranch pleaded guilty in the case on Friday.
Alec McKinney had faced dozens of charges, including first-degree murder for the killing of Kendrick Castillo, an 18-year-old student who died in the shooting. Eight other students were wounded in the May 7 attack at STEM School Highlands Ranch.
In Douglas County court on Friday, McKinney pleaded guilty to more than a dozen felonies, including the first-degree murder charge, and one misdemeanor, according to a plea deal detailed in court. The remaining charges in the case would be dismissed under the deal.
The other charges included conspiracy to commit first-degree murder after deliberation, attempted murder after deliberation, attempted murder extreme indifference, conspiracy to commit arson, burglary and criminal mischief and possession of a weapon on school grounds. McKinney also pleaded guilty to a charge of second-degree assault for the two students who were mistakenly shot by a security guard in the response to the attack.
McKinney’s sentencing is scheduled for May 18. The mandatory minimum sentence for McKinney, 16, is life with the possibility for parole after 40 years, minus earned time. He faces up to a total of life in prison with the possibility of parole after 40 years, plus 407 1/2 years, according to the 18th Judicial District Attorney’s office. However, under a recent state law, McKinney, as a juvenile offender, could become eligible for parole under a special program after 28 years in prison, District Attorney George Brauchler said.
Because McKinney is a juvenile, he was not eligible for life without parole or the death penalty.
John Castillo, Kendrick Castillo’s father, said afterward Friday that the guilty plea “is what we were hoping for” but “no matter what happens in the courtroom, the results are the still the same.”

John McLaughlin Other News
On September 24, 2003, John McLaughlin loaded his father’s semiautomatic .22 caliber pistol, put it in a gym bag, and brought it to school with the intention to “shoot some people.” Specifically, McLaughlin intended to “hurt” fellow ninth-grader Bartell, who, according to McLaughlin, was one of the students who teased him “all the time.” Bartell and McLaughlin were in the same physical education class. Shortly before that class was to start, McLaughlin brought the gun to the boys’ locker room and cocked it in the bathroom so no one would see it. He then hid the gun in his gym bag, sat on a bench, and waited for Bartell. Other students were getting ready for class in the locker room at this time. John McLaughlinasked one of these students, R.S., where C.E., another student in the physical education class, was. R.S. responded that C.E. was gone that day.[1]
Shortly thereafter, R.S. left the locker room with Bartell, who had changed clothes in an area of the locker room that John McLaughlin could not see. McLaughlin followed R.S. and Bartell out of the locker room and into a hallway, where he fired the gun at and hit Bartell. Bartell grabbed his left side as he and R.S. continued down the hallway toward a staircase leading to a gymnasium. Meanwhile, McLaughlin cleared a jam in the gun and reloaded it. Before Bartell and R.S. reached the stairs, McLaughlin fired a second shot in Bartell’s direction; this shot missed Bartell, but hit fellow student Aaron Rollins, who was walking toward McLaughlin. Rollins raised his hands toward the wound in his neck and as he started falling, said, “[h]elp me, I’m hurt. Help me, I’ve been shot.”
As R.S. and Bartell climbed the stairs, Bartell lifted his shirt and said to R.S., “Look, I’m shot.” R.S. and Bartell continued up the stairs and into the gym, looking for their physical education teacher. Shortly thereafter, McLaughlin entered the gym and approached Bartell. When McLaughlin was approximately two feet from Bartell, who had turned to face him, McLaughlin shot Bartell a second time, this time hitting him in the forehead. Student witnesses estimated that the gun was anywhere from one to eight inches from Bartell’s head when McLaughlin pulled the trigger, but a forensic expert determined that the distance was approximately 18 inches to three feet. Bartell collapsed instantly, and McLaughlin started to walk away.
Physical education teacher Mark Johnson was completing some paperwork in the gym when McLaughlin shot Bartell the second time. As McLaughlin walked away from Bartell, Johnson stood up from his seat in the bleachers and first began to walk toward Bartell, and then toward McLaughlin. After Johnson took two or three steps toward McLaughlin, McLaughlin raised the gun and pointed it at Johnson. Johnson stopped immediately, raised his hand, and said “no” in a loud voice. McLaughlin then lowered the gun, ejected the remaining shells onto the floor, and dropped the gun. Johnson picked up the gun, grabbed McLaughlin by the wrist, and took him to the school office. Shortly thereafter, law enforcement officers arrived and transported McLaughlin to the police station.
While the officers dealt with McLaughlin, emergency response personnel attended to Bartell and Rollins. Attempts to revive Rollins through CPR were unsuccessful, and he was declared dead upon arrival at a St. Cloud hospital. Bartell underwent surgery soon after he arrived at the same hospital, but remained unconscious until his death 16 days later.
In an interview with Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (BCA) Agent Ken McDonald immediately after the shooting, McLaughlin initially admitted shooting Bartell in the basement, but moments later, he said that he thought his first shot missed Bartell. McLaughlin told McDonald that once he reached the gym, he “shot [Bartell] again” from a distance of five to six feet. When asked where he shot Bartell, McLaughlin responded, “I don’t know, I think right here,” and pointed toward his shoulder. McLaughlin told McDonald that he did not think he shot anyone other than Bartell, but he acknowledged that he might have, “if [he] missed, maybe.” Midway through the interview, McDonald learned that one of the victims had died. When he relayed this information to McLaughlin, McLaughlin started to cry.
McLaughlin denied wanting to kill or “seriously hurt” anybody and told McDonald that he “was just trying to hurt [Bartell] like he hurt me.” He said that he did not think a .22 gun would do “very much” harm.[2] McLaughlin also told McDonald that he started thinking about bringing a gun to school approximately one week earlier. He also said that two days before the shootings he checked the school for metal detectors and security cameras. Toward the end of the interview, McDonald asked McLaughlin, “Do you think you did something wrong today?” McLaughlin replied, “[y]eah.”
John McLaughlin told McDonald that his trouble with Bartell began in sixth grade, and that he was teased “basically about [his] zits and stuff.” Of the 12 students who testified at McLaughlin’s trial, including several of McLaughlin’s friends, only two told the district court that they had ever observed any conflict between Bartell and McLaughlin. The conflicts these witnesses described involved pushing, yelling, and “talking,” but not Bartell calling McLaughlin names or teasing him about his acne or anything else. Two students testified that C.E. called McLaughlin names such as “fag” and “asshole.” But these witnesses qualified their testimony by stating that C.E. teased “everybody else” in the same manner, that C.E. was “just a kidding type of guy,” and that the conflict between C.E. and McLaughlin was “nothing major.” A third witness remembered one instance in which C.E. pushed McLaughlin out of the way by McLaughlin’s locker, and McLaughlin responded by acting as if it did not happen.
The student who said he only saw Bartell and John McLaughlin “talking” apparently testified to the grand jury that McLaughlin “was teased almost every day or every other day” and that “[Bartell] and his friends would go up to [McLaughlin] and they would just push him around.” On cross-examination, this student agreed with defense counsel’s statement that “[your grand jury testimony] was based mainly on rumors that you had heard.” Another witness admitted on cross-examination that she had heard stories from other students about McLaughlin being teased, even though she never saw it happen. Defense counsel read from a statement this same witness gave to BCA agents on the day of the shooting, in which she said that McLaughlin “was a pretty good person and he got teased for a lot of things, for just a lot of things.”
B.K., who knew John McLaughlin since elementary school and developed a friendship with him in middle school, told the court that she exchanged e-mail messages with McLaughlin during the summer before ninth grade and after the school year started. During this time, John McLaughlin told B.K. that he had a girlfriend named Suki Renoko, and he asked B.K. if she would exchange e-mail messages with Renoko. B.K. began to correspond with Renoko, but she soon became suspicious that there was no such person and that Renoko was actually McLaughlin. She testified that the messages contained overly personal questions that typical 14-year-olds would not ask and had the same spelling errors as McLaughlin’s messages. In one message from “Renoko,” McLaughlin characterized himself as a “sniper.” In another, he described an incident in which he cut the face of someone who stabbed his sister. Before classes began on the day of the shooting, John McLaughlin e-mailed B.K. under his own name and wrote, “befor[e] [I] go to[o] far [I] have to ask you not to tell any one about this not the news cops or parents ok * * * so [I] guess this is goodbye my love.” B.K. did not receive this message until after the shootings when she returned home from school.
Approximately six months after the shootings, the Stearns County Juvenile Court certified McLaughlin to stand trial as an adult. John McLaughlin appealed the certification to the Minnesota Court of Appeals, which affirmed the certification order. The parties then agreed to a bifurcated bench trial in which McLaughlin would stipulate to guilt in the second-degree murder of Rollins during the trial’s first phase and would attempt to prove a mental illness defense during the second phase. There was no stipulation as to Bartell. At the close of the first phase, the district court found John McLaughlin guilty of first-degree murder in Bartell’s death, second-degree murder in Rollins’ death, and possession of a dangerous weapon on school property. In the second phase, the court heard testimony from six mental health experts—three retained by McLaughlin, one by the state, and two by the court.

Barry Loukaitis Other News
On the day of the shooting, Barry Loukaitis was dressed as a Wild West-style gunslinger and was wearing a black duster. He was armed with a .30–30 caliber hunting rifle and two handguns (.357 caliber revolver and .25 caliber semiautomatic pistol) that belonged to his father, and was carrying approximately 78 rounds of ammunition.
Barry Loukaitis walked from his house to his school, where he had entered his algebra classroom during fifth period. He opened fire at students, killing two, Arnold Fritz and Manuel Vela, Jr., both fourteen. Another student, 13-year-old Natalie Hintz, sustained critical gunshot wounds to the right arm and abdomen, and was airlifted to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle.
Barry Loukaitis then fatally shot his algebra teacher Leona Caires in the chest. As his classmates began to panic, Loukaitis reportedly said, “This sure beats the hell out of algebra, doesn’t it?”[1], which is often erroneously reported as a quote from the Stephen King novel Rage. Teacher and coach Jon Lane entered the classroom upon hearing the gunshots to find Loukaitis holding his classmates hostage. He planned to use one hostage so he could safely exit the school. Lane volunteered as the hostage, and Loukaitis kept him at gunpoint with his rifle. Lane then grabbed the weapon from Loukaitis and wrestled him to the ground, later assisting in the evacuation of students.
Lane kept Barry Loukaitis subdued until police arrived at the scene.

School shooter Barry Loukaitis, who killed three people and wounded a fourth at a Moses Lake middle school in 1996, was resentenced on Wednesday to 189 years in prison.
Loukaitis, 36, was resentenced as the result of a U.S. Supreme Court ruling in 2012 that said people younger than 16 could not receive life sentences without parole. Loukaitis did not contest the new sentence sought by prosecutors and also waived his right to any future appeals.
Family members of the victims who died on Feb. 2, 1996, at Frontier Middle School told Grant County Superior Court Judge Michael Cooper about the pain Loukaitis’ rampage caused them. Several said at the hearing in Ephrata that having to speak about the shootings again more than 20 years later reopened old wounds.
Loukaitis, wearing handcuffs, directly addressed his victims and their family members for the first time, just before he was sentenced.
“I am sorry for what I did.” Loukaitis, who has graying hair and wore glasses, said. “What I did was weak and evil and senseless.”
Loukaitis said he did not have the tools at the age of 14 to deal with his anger and hatred toward others.
“I didn’t have the skills I needed to learn to be a man,” he said.
“It was never my intention to kill everyone in the classroom,” he added.
Gripping testimony also came from Natalie Hintz, who was 13 when Loukaitis shot her in the arm. She nearly died of her injuries.
“It is with disbelief and heavy heart that I am here today,” Hintz said of the resentencing process.
“I’ve re-lived the day I was shot over and over again,” Hintz said, adding that “my childhood ended” that day.
She endured years of physical therapy and still does not have the full use of her arm, Hintz said.
She recalled lying next to a dead classmate and watching Loukaitis shoot their teacher to death.
“Your sentence was to be final, like death is final,” Hintz said. “Today I am being victimized all over again.”
Loukaitis carried a hunting rifle and two handguns into his math class at Frontier Middle School. He shot and killed teacher Leona Caires, 49, and classmates Manuel Vela and Arnold Fritz, both 14. Hintz was wounded.
Teacher Jon Lane heard the gunshots and rushed to the classroom. He confronted and disarmed Loukaitis and then pinned him down until police arrived. Lane’s heroism likely prevented additional deaths.
But on Wednesday, Lane said he still had questions about the day.
“Why did you do it?” Lane asked of Loukaitis. “Why that day and that classroom?”
Manuel Vela Sr. told the judge he often wondered what his son would have been like as an adult.
“We’ll never know,” Vela said.
“He knew exactly what he was doing when he murdered our son,” Vela said of Loukaitis.
Alice Fritz, the mother of Arnold Fritz, remembered coming upon the body of her son in the hospital.
“I held his hand for a long time, sitting next to him,” she recalled. His hand was cold, she said.
Alice Fritz recalled that she went to visit Loukaitis in prison five years ago. She said she believed Loukaitis was genuinely contrite about the shootings.
But Victoria Kimble, a daughter of teacher Leona Caires, said she felt a deep hatred for Loukaitis.
She said her mother loved teaching math.
“She died with a piece of chalk in one hand and an eraser in the other,” Kimble said.
Cooper was the original judge in the case who came out of retirement to handle the new sentencing.
After the shootings, Loukaitis was tried as an adult in Seattle in an attempt to find an impartial jury. He claimed an insanity defense that was rejected by the jury and convicted in 1997.
In prison, Loukaitis has earned high school and college degrees and worked as a teacher’s aide.
“I appreciate Mr. Loukaitis’s words and his efforts in prison to better himself,” the judge said.
The judge also said he appreciated the strength of the people who testified on Wednesday, 21 years after the shootings.
TJ Lane is a school shooter from Ohio who at seventeen years old would bring a gun to school and shoot dead three fellow students. According to court documents TJ Lane, also known as Thomas M Lane III, would bring a .22 calibre gun to school where he would open fire striking and killing three students.
At trial TJ Lane showed no remorse and on the day he was to be sentenced would somehow get hold of a black marker and write the word Killer on his t-shirt. Along with insulting the victim’s families TJ Lane basically made sure that he would receive the maximum sentence which would be life in prison with no chance at parole.
This teen killer would make the news a couple of years later by briefly escaping from prison
A convicted high school shooter in Ohio built a 13-foot ladder out of old cabinets to escape from a prison along with two other inmates, a jailbreak that put the community where Thomas “T.J.” Lane carried out his killing spree on edge, the state department of corrections said in a report Friday.
Lane, 20, broke out of Allen Correctional Institution in Lima, Ohio, on Sept. 9, and remained on the loose until he was captured six hours later. Lane is serving three life sentences for killing three students in a hail of gunfire at Chardon High School in 2012. Prison officials personally met with the victims’ families to explain how Lane was able to escape, NBC station WKYC reported.
The report from the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction said Lane and the other two inmates, Lindsey Bruce and Clifford Opperud, fashioned their ladder over several months from materials inside a crawlspace located adjacent to the recreation yard. The door was padlocked, but the inmates were able to break in anyway, the report said. On Sept. 9 they used the ladder to get on top of a building near the prison entrance at around 7:40 p.m. and jump 15 feet down to the ground and escape through a soybean field, the report said.
Bruce was arrested almost immediately, but Lane was on the run for almost six hours, until he was arrested at 1:20 a.m. in a wooded area near the prison. Opperud, a convicted robber and burglar, was arrested at 4:22 a.m. by officers who tracked him with a police dog. The prison will be upgrading padlocks with more secure locks, razor wire was added on top of the building the inmates used to escape, and the area where the prisoners built their ladder was closed. The report found the inmates had “unimpeded” access to the maintenance area on their way to and from the recreation yard.
