Trying to make others feel like they'll eventually feel?

There's some old jokes that fly around about some particularly bad behaving or downright evil people and how they've made efforts to jump to the head of the line come judgement day.  For example, well, there's that one time Dictator/ruler of Germany, there's the guy that was recently killed and quickly buried at sea after having eluded the U.S. for nearly 10 years, and of course there's been the guy that had tried to kill the pope back in the day.  Anyway, here's a story about a few more people that should be added to the list (headline is linked):
