Johnny Lee Wicks’ violent streak showed itself long before he walked into the federal courthouse in Las Vegas on Monday and opened fire with a shotgun.
The 66-year-old, who was shot dead after a running gun fight with authorities, served time in prison three decades ago for killing his brother with a shotgun in Memphis, Tenn.
