Dear policeman, I am God.
- What they wrote on a Death tarot card that they left near an area where they shot 13-year-old victim Iran Brown (who survived) in Bowie, Maryland.

"Good morning. Don't say anything, just listen. We're the people that are causing the killing in your area. Look on the tarot card. It says, 'Call me God. Do not release to the press.' We have called you three times before, trying to set up negotiations. We have got no response. People have died... Get your people..." - What Lee Malvo said when he dialed 9-1-1 and talked to a Rockville, Maryland police dispatcher on October 15, 2002.

- A handwritten letter that was in a plastic bag that they left near an area where they shot victim Jeffrey Hopper (who survived) in Ashland, Virginia.

"I will cooperate with you." - What Lee Malvo said to detectives as part of his confession to the D.C./Maryland/Virginia shootings.

"I'm never going to be set free... I can zero that off." - What Lee Malvo said to detectives as part of his confession to the D.C./Maryland/Virginia shootings.

"The only thing that I would want is my time... my freedom, and that can not be given back." - What Lee Malvo said during his confession, when detectives asked him what he would want, to be more comfortable.

"I'm not a vicious, mean, blood-hounded person." - What Lee Malvo said to detectives as part of his confession to the D.C./Maryland/Virginia shootings.

"I keep ego out of it." - What Lee Malvo said to detectives as part of his confession to the D.C./Maryland/Virginia shootings.

"You're not going to figure it out even if I tell you." - What Lee Malvo said, referring to a reason for the shootings.

"He's in more of a diagonal, sideways... like this, his body twisted this way so I couldn't get a body shot. He went down... he grabbed his head and he went down like that. I just saw the body started falling. I didn't stay around and watch it go down." - What Lee Malvo said, describing the shooting of victim Dean Meyers.

"Came back to see what you were doing. I was standing, watching... at a decent distance." - What Lee Malvo said about watching the police at the crime scene of victim Dean Meyers.

...grappling with shame, guilt, remorse and my own healing if that will ever be possible.
- Part of a letter Lee Malvo sent from prison to CNN.

"One of the things we're here for today is to find out what everyone wants to know. What happened? There's three truths. The truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. I always thought there was just one truth. The facts should help us identify what's a lie, what's not a lie. I know what happened. I know what didn't happen. They're basing what they (say) about me on a theory." - What John Muhammad said during his opening statement in court.

"If we monitor step by step, it will all show I had nothing to do with these crimes. They know this." - What John Muhammad said during his opening statement in court.

"I was there. I know what happened. Accusing me of a crime doesn't make it so. That's what we are here today to prove." - What John Muhammad said during his opening statement in court.

"Don't make a fool of the Constitution of the United States of America." - What John Muhammad said in court, after being sentenced to execution in prison.
