Robert Adams

"Was it that hard... for you people.. to tell the truth about me? Huh? To notice me?!"

Robert "Bob" Adams was a copycat killer who appeared in Painless.

Background
Robert was a complete outsider at Boise High School. In 2001, a student named Randy Slade carried out a massacre in the school's cafeteria, taking Robert and over a dozen other students hostage. Holding them at gunpoint, he dared them to look him in the eye. Those who couldn't were promptly shot. After killing two students this way, he dared Robert, who actually managed to look him in the eye. Slade didn't shoot him, saying he wasn't "worth the bullet". Slade then detonated an explosive device he had brought with him, killing himself and 10 other students. Though Robert survived the blast, he was injured so badly that he developed a condition called pain asymbolia, which made him unable to suffer from physical pain. A few days after the massacre, Robert saw Jerry Holtz, a student who had also been present in the cafeteria and was made to lock the doors, on television, claiming to have been the one who managed to look Slade in the eye. Robert went on with his life, resentful of the fact that Jerry had stolen his credit. In 2011 when a memorial service for the students killed in the massacre was to be held (Painless), Robert came back to Boise with a revenge plan in mind.

Modus Operandi
Robert killed his victims in various ways. Principal Givens was first shot in the leg with a handgun to prevent him from fleeing and then killed by a bomb modeled after Slade's. Chelsea Grant and Jerry Holtz he savagely beat to death with his bare hands.
