Known as the Xerox Murders, Byran Koji Uyesugi is responsible for the deadliest shooting in the state of Hawaii.
Uyesugi reasoned that because he would refuse to undertake the training, management would then fire him. As he told Dr. Michael Welner, “I decided to give them a reason to fire me.”
On the morning of November 2, 1999, he showed up to work with a 9mm Glock and opened fire, killing his supervisor and 6 of his co-workers. After a 5 hour stand off with police, Uyesugi surrendered. Despite trying to plead not guilty by reason of insanity, he was found guilty and sentenced to life in prison with no possibility of parole. The Xerox building was abandoned and stood empty until 2004, when it became a sound stage for the hit TV series Lost.
