The three Briley brothers, Linwood, James Jr., and Anthony were polite and helpful to their neighbors. At school, it was a different story. They harassed and bullied the others. In 1971, Linwood committed his first killing at age 16. This was the start of the group's killing spree and they eventually went to prison. Their shenanigans didn't really stop there. Two of the brothers ended up becoming ring leaders in a six-inmate escape from death row.
