Subject: Outfits of mass murderers Sun Jun 03, 2018 6:35 pm
I thought to compile together the more complex and theatrical outfits worn by mass murderers, not really counting murderers who wore customized t-shirts and not gonna post Harris and Klebold's outfits because you already seen it a thousand times already.
Anders Breivik:
Spoiler:
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] CCTV footage of Anders shortly before the Oslo bombing. I always thought his helmet was rad, wonder why he got rid of it, was probably to shield his face in case if the van bomb went off earlier than expected in his escape on foot and wasn't practice by the time he arrived on Utoya.
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] What Anders probably looked like during the Utoya massacre.
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] Shortly after his arrest on Utoya.
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] A mannequin displaying Breivik's homemade police outfit.
Mutsuo Toi:
Spoiler:
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] A display of the gear that Mutsuo Toi wore during the Tsuyama massacre.
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] A manga illustration of said outfit.
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] Mutsuo Toi as depicted in the 1983 film: Village Of Doom
James Holmes:
Spoiler:
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] A display of the outfit that James Holmes wore during the Aurora theater shooting by the Denver Post.
Adam Lanza:
Spoiler:
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] A crude recreation of what Adam looked like when he entered Sandy Hook on December 14th 2012 by the Sandy Hook Facts blog.
Cho Seung-Hui:
Spoiler:
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] Picture from Cho's manifesto and by judging from the leaked autopsy photo, his outfit was close to what was depicted here.
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] From the video manifesto.
Anton Lundin Pettersson:
Spoiler:
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] Anton pictured moments before his attack at his school, I can only describe his outfit as Wehrmacht Darth Vader.
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] CCTV footage of Anton during his attack, patrolling the hallways for would be victims.
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] A view from the back.
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] A view of him in one of the school's common areas.
Robert Steinhäuser: The only photos of Robert Steinhäuser's outfit were taken of him just after committing suicide, I think it's against the rules to post pictures of suicide photos with blood in them but you can easily find them by just googling Robert Steinhäuser.

It would count if he was wearing something more complex and in line with the examples posted above.

I know he isnt a mass murderer but Karl Pierson wore on the day of his attack: Cargo pants, an Under Armor shirt, and a red CCCP shirt, along with 2 shotgun ammo belts covered over his shirt

Thanks for the compilation. It must be "great" to choose the outfit you want to die in and to be remembered. I mean, obviously from a shooter's point of view, you want to impress and your name to be remembered. I wonder if when they choose their outfit they hope their will be pictures or CCTV footage.

Not particularly theatrical or complex, but David Sonboly wore a black t-shirt, blue jeans and a red and black backpack. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] There's also a picture of his suicide, but not including it for obvious reasons. Liam Lyburd (was arrested before he could commit his shooting but still including him) planned on wearing a black boiler suit, 2 hole balaclava and knee pads. Can't include pictures though since apparently posting pictures of shooters posing with their weapons is against the rules. Edit: Here's Sonboly's suicide photo. Edit 2: Removed because they're banned again

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] Mind sending me that suicide photo?
On that matter heres another depiction tho less accurate on how Michael Ryan looked like in his massacre from a BBC documentary: [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
Tbh what he wears in one of the very few surviving photos of him isn't probably that far of what he ended up wearing: [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

I remember watching that Documentary, pretty accurate apart from what he wore.
What I've heard from Police and eyewitness reports is that he wore camouflage clothes, although I'll guess we'll never truly know.

Jacob Roberts wore a white mask, black shirt, black tactical vest and blue jeans. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] There's also a photo showing his tactical vest where you can see his jeans, but it's a photo of his corpse so it might not be allowed. Edit: Here's the photo now. Edit: They're banned again.

Also, once again not a mass murderer but Jose Reyes (the sparks middle school shooter) wore a gray school hoodie, khaki shorts, his orange and black backpack, and shoes

Well the police did find his body, so I'm gonna take their word for it when they say that he wore cameo clothes.

What Elliot Rodger wore in his Retribution video and what he probably wore in his shooting:
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] Similar to Cho whom Wellington idolized, his outfit on the day of the massacre was close to what was depicted in his manifesto.

Actually, this is more accurate to what Wellington wore:
If you look at the suicide picture, the outfit he wore is very similar to this one. If anyone wants to see the suicide photo, it's on his murderpedia page.

No, it's hard to tell if he's wearing the jacket or the shirt due to the blood and both of them being the same colour and it seems to look far more baggier.

Strange that he doesnt wear the black combat suit he was described to have been wearing, but I guess you could mistake the black trousers and gray jacket for one under the circumstances?
