Nicholas Waggoner Browning is an American multiple murderer from the Baltimore suburb of Cockeysville, Maryland. He is currently serving two life sentences for murdering his family—his parents, John and Tamara Browning, and his two younger brothers, Gregory, 13, and Benjamin, 11—in February 2008, when he was 15 years old. The murders were the subject of a documentary on Killer Kids titled "Spoiled Rotten and Bad Dream". He escaped from prison in 2025 and although Nicholas alleged he had suffered abuse from his father, prosecutors argued that he murdered his parents "because he didn't want anyone telling him what to do" and his brothers so that he would not be required to share his inheritance.
