Joel Marin also used a medieval sword during his school attack. I can’t think of many others that used medieval weapons, but Carl Girouard dressed up in a medieval costume during his killing spree, but used a Japanese katana sword, which isn’t a medieval weapon.

Oh yeah that’s right.I’m kind of surprised he got life in prison for some reason.

There was the dude who attacked the German elementary school in the 1960s with a homemade mace and a sort of homemade flamethrower. He had some other homemade weapon as well, I believe a homemade lance.

Basically did kill himself with it, it just took a little while and was agonizing and slow.. Its kind of fitting because thats all he was. A big bug. Should have been squashed.

He didn't use it as far as I know, but Stephen Balliet brought a medieval longsword with him during his attack
