 Lon Horiuchi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lon Tomohisa Horiuchi (born June 9, 1954) is a sniper who gained notoriety after being accused in both the Ruby Ridge shootings and the Waco standoff, but had charges of manslaughter against him dropped.
He was charged with involuntary manslaughter in the case in 1998, but the case was ultimately dismissed by U.S. District Judge Edward Lodge, who cited the Supremacy Clause of the Constitution which grants immunity to Federal Authorities acting in the scope of their position.
In September 1995, Horiuchi testified before the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee's hearing on the Ruby Ridge shootings; however, following advice of counsel, he invoked his Fifth Amendment rights, which limited the ability of Idaho's prosecutorial team of Denise Woodbury and Stephen Yagman to build a criminal case against him.

 Bright Lights Film Journal Lon Chaney, Sr. -- Supermasochist!
Chaney, like Flanagan, became an artist through direct early contact with infirmity: his mother was sickly, but more significantly, both parents were deaf, causing young Chaney to develop a repertoire of facial and body tics and gestures to communicate with them.
Chaney, the child of deaf mutes who made only one sound film (The Unholy Three) before he died in 1930, is remembered more for his pure horror roles — Hunchback and Phantom &; than his many collaborations with Browning.
Chaney's films are filled with images of physical repression, submission, mutilation, and castration, and his taste for such motifs dovetailed perfectly with Browning's own world-view.
