    Defiant teen gets life sentences in Ohio shooting

    CHARDON, Ohio (AP) — Wearing a T-shirt with "killer" scrawled across it, a teenager cursed and gestured obscenely as he was given three life sentences Tuesday for shooting to death three students in an Ohio high school cafeteria.

    T.J. Lane, 18, had pleaded guilty last month to shooting at students in February 2012 at Chardon High School, east of Cleveland. Investigators have said he admitted to the shooting but said he didn't know why he did it.

    Before the case went to adult court last year, a juvenile court judge ruled that Lane was mentally competent to stand trial despite evidence he suffers from hallucinations, psychosis and fantasies.

    Lane was defiant during the sentencing, smiling and smirking throughout, including while four relatives of victims spoke.

    After he came in, he calmly unbuttoned his blue dress shirt to reveal the T-shirt reading "killer," which the prosecutor noted was similar to one he wore during the shooting.

    At one point, he swiveled around in his chair toward the gallery where his own family members and those of the slain teenagers were sitting and spoke suddenly, surprising even his lawyer.

    "The hand that pulled the trigger that killed your sons now masturbates to the memory," he said, then cursed at and raised his middle finger toward the victims' relatives.

    Here's justice. We are a civilized country, this kid got civilized justice. What more can you hope for?
    As far as I'm concerned, they going to waste years of taxpayer money..........this kid needs to be executed when he hits 21.
    This is another face of evil. One cannot predict what evil will do, when it commits and act, or what devices it will use at hand. But like most events, it can only be handled once it becomes known.
