Two guards at an Indiana prison have been fired after a man serving a life sentence for molesting and murdering a 10-year-old southern Indiana had the girl’s name forcibly tattooed on his forehead by other inmates.
Anthony Ray Stockelman, 39, was placed in protective custody last weekend after authorities discovered the tattoo reading ‘Katie’s Revenge’ said Rich Larsen, spokesman for the Wabash Valley Correctional Facility in Carlisle, Ind.
Stockelman was sentenced to life in prison in March after pleading guilty to abducting, molesting and killing Katlyn ‘Katie’ Collman. The Crothersville girl was missing for five days before her body was found Jan 30 2005, in a creek about 15 miles from her home midway between Indianapolis and Louisville.
A photo of what is identified as Stockelman’s forehead and eyes appeared on a crime blog called ‘Lost in Lima Ohio’ that focuses on news reports about crimes against children and women.
