'''Kody Austin Lott''' (January 7<sup>th</sup>, 1996 - ) is an American from the Wichita Falls, Texas area who, on September 2<sup>nd</sup>, 2016; shot and killed 13-year-old Lauren Landavazo and injured her friend Makayla Smith in the process. In September 2018, he was found guilty and sentenced to life in prison for his crimes.

Lott had a history of mental illness before the crime, being diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, a notable example being that he said the Devil made him commit the shooting; he was also probably a pedophile as he was additionally charged with child pornography as well as being attracted to a young girl like Lauren. He was a known drug user who got in trouble with the law, and an ex-girlfriend claimed that he was extremely abusive; even Lott's father said that his son had mental problems.
