Lucratzi Gcross

Lucratzi Gcross was an enigmatic serial murderer well know the bizare circumstances of his life.

Crimes

Lucratzi was convicted of murdering four women in A.Y. 5418. At the time the planet where this occurred had no death penalty, so to ensure he would never again become a threat to society, he was sentenced to 500 years in prison for each murder, to be served consecutively. Under the then laws of his home world, a prisoner could be eligible for parole after serving just 40% of his prison time. As this was still much longer than an ordinary human life, the punishment was deemed sufficient.

Prison Time

Lucratzi was believed to be 29 years old at the time he was incarcerated. While in prison he did not appear to age. This fact was mostly ignored until A.Y. 5480, when a then ninety-one year old Lucratzi applied for compassionate release. He was turned down, and a medical examination order. So shocking were the finds, that courts immediately ordered his DNA be tested against the stored copy. During 62 years of incarceration, Lucratzi did not appear to have aged at all. When questioned, he claimed it was merely an illusion, that because of his clean living and daily regime he was relatively healthy for his age. This statement was enough to deny him compassionate release.

He tried again in A.Y 5509, when he would be 120 years old according to his birth certificate, this generally being accepted as the maximum human lifespan. Though he had since acquired some scars and prison tattoos, he appeared no different from his previous examination. Authorities were baffled, but again denied him release on the grounds that he was still plenty fit. Though efforts were made, no experts expressed interest in studying Lucratzi, with the general consensus being that he must have lied about his age.

By A.Y. 5538, rumors were circulating about this bizarre individual. Lucratzi had now spent the entirety of a normal human lifespan behind bars. Parallels were drawn to Hermen Scopal, a notable figure from the previous age. However Scopal was not human, his long-life was easily explained by being a "Passer". Prison authories were still unable to garner legitimate scientific interest in Lucratzi, so his genetic code was published online.
