Seth Privacky

Seth Privacky (June 2, 1980 – July 15, 2010) was an American mass murderer who was convicted of five counts of murder at the age of 18 for the shooting of his parents, brother, brother's girlfriend and his grandfather in Muskegon, Michigan on November 29, 1998.

On July 15, 2010, Privacky was shot and killed during a failed prison escape attempt at Kinross Correctional Facility in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. Privacky and two other inmates overpowered the driver of a facilities semi-truck around 9:10 a.m. (ET) and tried to drive it through the double fence.

All three escapees were serving murder sentences.
