John Corcoran

John Corcoran is a tattoo artist and a religious zealot responsible for a series of staged tortures and killings based off the deaths of Jesus' apostles and Mary Magdalene. He appeared in Thirteen in Numb3rs. He always left bible verses as well as coded numeric grids at the scenes using the Gematria, an ancient Hebrew code assigning numeric values to Hebrew characters in text. Using an accomplice he manipulated and conditioned who worked in his tattoo parlor, he first killed a woman, then several men, to match the biblical dead figures, to carve his own personal "Road to Damascus" in California. Eventually, the FBI found out his patterns, and after seeing through his lies when asking him questions, were able to track him down halfway through his intended murders. But the vengeful love of the woman he killed first, a military sniper named Clay Larkin, tracked the two killers down as the FBI was meaning to take them into custody, starting with the accomplice, than Corcoran, he sniped them both dead and fled.
