Outlaw

The Resume

    (1973-July 24, 2008)
    Resident of Bennett, Colorado
    Ran Power Promoters
    Sent large volumes of unsolicited commercial email
    Known as the 'Spam King'
    Sentenced to 21 months in prison for violating the federal CAN-SPAM Act and tax evasion (April 28, 2008)

Why he might be annoying:

    After a visit from his wife, Amy, and his children, he forced his way into their car and escaped from a minimum security prison (July 20, 2008).
    Three days later, he called Amy and said he was going to turn himself in but wanted to see his family first.
    Instead, he shot and killed his wife and three-year-old daughter, wounded his sixteen-year-old daughter, and then committed suicide.
    US Attorney Troy Eid commented, 'What a nightmare and such a coward. Davidson imposed the death penalty on family members for his crime.'

Why he might not be annoying:

    He reportedly had ADHD.
    At his sentencing, he was ordered to undergo mental health counseling, with the judge commenting, 'He obviously has some unresolved issues with regard to his childhood and how he was raised that he believes impair his ability to make good decisions in the future.'
    His seven-month-old son was unharmed during the murder-suicide.
