Editing Christopher Scarver (section)

==Murder of Steve Lohman==
On June 1, 1990, Scarver went to the Wisconsin Conservation Corps training office and found site manager John Feyen and employee Steve Lohman present. Forcing Lohman down at gunpoint, Scarver demanded money from Feyen. Upon receiving only US$15 from him ({{Inflation|US|15|1990|fmt=eq}}), the enraged Scarver shot Lohman once in the head, killing him. According to authorities, Scarver said: "Now do you think I'm kidding? I need more money." After Scarver shot Lohman twice more, both [[post-mortem]], Feyen wrote Scarver a check for US$3,000 ({{Inflation|US|3000|1990|fmt=eq}}). As Feyen fled outside to his car, Scarver fired at him, but missed.<ref name="NYTimes"/><ref name=sentinel3/>
