Re: Charles Whitman Crime Scene Photos
I've done a search for this infamous killer but DR came up blank :) Charles Joseph Whitman (June 24, 1941 – August 1, 1966), a student at the University of Texas at Austin, killed 14 people and wounded 32 others during a shooting rampage on and around the university's campus. Three were killed inside the University's tower and ten killed from the 29th floor observation deck [1][2] of the University's 307 foot administrative building on August 1, 1966; one died a week later from her wounds. The tower massacre happened shortly after Whitman murdered his wife and mother at their homes. He was shot and killed by Austin Police Officer Houston McCoy,[3] assisted by Austin Police Officer Ramiro Martinez. The incident was the deadliest university shooting in United States history until the Virginia Tech massacre of 2007, when Seung Hui Cho killed 32 people. More info here on what happened: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Whitman Here's the man mentioned in Full Metal Jacket: [nomedia="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a5IWK9sRYTs"]YouTube- Full Metal Jacket - Charles Whitman - Lee Harvey Oswald[/nomedia] The top picture is Whitman shot by the police with a shot-gun: (McCoy ... a policeman) with his 12 gauge shotgun, fired two fatal 00 buck shots into the head, neck, and left side of Whitman The other pictures are of his earlier killings, his mother and wife.  ·  ·  ·  ·  ·  · |
