School shooting in Newtown CT-Breaking on Fox News

So nobody at school had heard of her and this:

“I wouldn’t know them if they drove right by me,” he said of the family, describing them in a phone interview as a quiet presence in the neighborhood. “We know all the neighbors but them.”

THIS is what I was talking about! Watch from 2:20 on - VERY important! This blows me away that he is saying this!

This really bothers me:

“No one has heard of her,” said Lillian Bittman, who served on the local school board until 2011. “Teachers don’t know her.”


I was looking for someone once and came across a name in the minutes of a school board meeting. I read through it and it was voting on keeping or hiring employees, including aides. The school board had to vote on each employee. Maybe it's not done that way in every district...I don't know. But if it is, if the school board approves hires....well, that is just weird!

I thought he said that it could be a conspiracy....?

What is wrong with you? Do you not know how to have a civilized discussion? What's with all the spic this and spic that? Dang, go find an outlet for all that hatred.

They aren't gonna show the bodies. That would be inappropriate. Duh. They are however showing the grieving parents.

Shake it off, take a chill pill. You're gonna kill yourself with all that crap inside your head.

You are right! I was hasty and I'll fix. Thanks!

Mary Sherlach School Psychologist

I have been employed as a School Psychologist at the Sandy Hook School since August of 1994, having previously worked as a School Psychologist in Redding, North Haven and New Haven Public Schools. I recieved my Masters and Sixth Year Professional Degrees from Southern Connecticut State University, and my undergraduate degree in Psychology from SUNY Cortland. Prior to working as a School Psychologist, I was employed in the Mental Health field as a Rehabilitation Assistant at a Psychiatric facility, a Psychology Assistant working in a group home with disabled adults as well as Community Mental Health Placement Specialist.

I pulled the info off the school web page before they took it down.

You rock cowgirl.

I hate to ask this, but has anyone seen any evidence of the reported deaths? The parents and child I saw interviewed were practically laughing about it. Very weird. I wouldn't put it past the illuminutties to have staged the whole thing, with cooperating actors (well paid, of course).

My friend goes to church with the grandmother of one of the kindergarteners killed. She is on her way to CT now.

I believe it is real. I believe children are dead. :( But this is the first time I'm wondering if there is some sort of conspiracy behind it.

Peace and...safety? Check out 1 Thessalonians 5:3. I've been hearing a lot about that lately.

Now concerning how and when all this will happen, dear brothers and sisters,[a] we don’t really need to write you. 2 For you know quite well that the day of the Lord’s return will come unexpectedly, like a thief in the night. 3 When people are saying, “Everything is peaceful and secure,” then disaster will fall on them as suddenly as a pregnant woman’s labor pains begin. And there will be no escape.

4 But you aren’t in the dark about these things, dear brothers and sisters, and you won’t be surprised when the day of the Lord comes like a thief. 5 For you are all children of the light and of the day; we don’t belong to darkness and night. 6 So be on your guard, not asleep like the others. Stay alert and be clearheaded. 7 Night is the time when people sleep and drinkers get drunk. 8 But let us who live in the light be clearheaded, protected by the armor of faith and love, and wearing as our helmet the confidence of our salvation.

9 For God chose to save us through our Lord Jesus Christ, not to pour out his anger on us. 10 Christ died for us so that, whether we are dead or alive when he returns, we can live with him forever. 11 So encourage each other and build each other up, just as you are already doing.

Thanks...I had a funny feeling that somehow the Psychologist would come into play so I pulled part of her bio off the school web page that has now been scrubbed.

Hummmm...
worked with disabled adults and was a community mental health person. If I was a betting woman, I would bet this is an important piece to the puzzle.

Oh yea FYI...I tried to use the wayback machine to get past info from the schools page but it said...This page has not been archived. more hummmm

you people were saying the exact very same thing the
day of the Batman Shooting.

what is it with you. why to you feel the need to
say this stuff?

You're not alone. The cops have acted unemotional and detached about it and parents have been pictured laughing and carrying on with a few looking upset. Those who have been interviewed and supposedly 'crying' shed no actual tears...just odd. Not the level of despair you would expect to see for such a horrible tragedy, for 20 little children being massacred. The Sheriff's voice is casual as ever when he says 'yes it's a tragic situation...blah blah blah.' Just rea;;y weird stuff.

Adam Lanza: Newtown, Connecticut school shooting suspect may have suffered from personality disorder

[link to www.masslive.com]

How much death is "too much"?

Dont have any idea if this is the shooter but..was doing a search for Andrew Lanza and this myspace page showed up in my search.

The family guy video on Andrew Lanza's page is too creepy!

Thread: December 15...the key to the shootings.....wow pin worthy

The Principle . Vice principle and school psychologist were in a meeting with a parent when he broke his way in. They came out and tried to stop him and the Principle shouted to everyone to lock doors before she was shot. They were not targeted specifically but died because first to confront him...apparently.

I can understand why they might not show any pics of the kids etc.
But what about at the mothers house who was shot? How come there are no pictures of the ambulance taking her away to the morgue?

I'm not saying this for morbid grotesque reasons but it seems the standard media thing to show that kind of stuff over there.

This week, the woman in belgium who killed 3 of her savant kids and tried to commit suicide afterwards allegedly had lyme disease. She was in a tv show with her kids last year,
which were all home schooled.

Rather than start a new thread, I'll just put this info here...


Adam Lanza graduated high school 3 YEARS EARLY according to a friend in the article at the link below..

Also this might clear up the mother being a school teacher...
It may have been a decade ago that she worked as a teacher..

His parents, Nancy and Peter Lanza, separated about a decade ago, and his mother, a kindergarten teacher at Sandy Hook, remained in the family’s home with her sons, Adam and Ryan Lanza, according to Ryan Kraft, 25, who was a neighbor.

The separation hit the children hard, Kraft recalled.

When Nancy Lanza would go out to dinner with friends, she sometimes relied on Kraft to watch Adam Lanza, who was too boisterous for Ryan Lanza to manage. “He would have tantrums,” Kraft said. “They were much more than the average kid [had].” Yet he was not prone to violence, Kraft said.

“The kids seemed really depressed” by the breakup, Kraft said of the Lanza brothers. Ryan Lanza, 24, now lives in Hoboken, N.J. Police questioned him Friday, but law enforcement officials said he was cooperating and is not suspected of having anything to do with the shootings.

So if he graduated 3 years early that means that the woman may have given up her teaching job to look after Adam Lanza since he was what? 15??

There's way more info on the guy and his mother at the link...

To add to this, last night MSM said they went through a nasty divorce in 2008

They wait days now before taking the body away. Someone said the bodies kids might be in their till sunday. Foresic science had gotten a lot more complicated cause they have to take a zillions pics and maps for those computer reinactments so the media coverage can be long and drawn out in the newspaper and news.. Thank technology for making things way more complicated.

I just looked through the judicial system .. they didn't divorce through CT courts ..
