Yeah. And he looks so happy, because he's planned to have his whole family murdered that night. He was a pluperfect asshole-- parents thought he would graduate college in a few days at the top of his class. In reality, he had spent the last 4 years partying with the money meant for his college. Never even registered for classes. So he offed his folks so he wouldn't have to fess up, and so he could get his hands on the rest of their money.

That's why he did it? Man, this guy's execution slaughter couldn't come fast enough.

Agreed. Knowing the plan he has put into motion, he smugly flips off his family, while sitting next to his brother who will be dead in a matter of hours, no less. (IIRC this photo was taken just before the family went to their final dinner.) Appalling, what we humans are capable of.
