Did parents of Sandy Hook shooting victims identify their bodies?

NO loving, caring parent would just believe what they're told - they would HAVE to see to believe - for closure.

That seems logical . . . horrible, but logical.

Just another piece of the convoluted puzzle.

As far as I know, that is completely illegal. The parents have a right to see the bodies. BIZARRE!

I had a friend with a .223 in Missouri about 1985, and it was kind of new to us, and we went shooting at his cabin, and I was not so impressed with any power it may have had, it was basically just like shooting a .22. And you can't have it both ways:

a) either the rounds had penetration power, and didn't do much damage to bodies, or
b) the rounds had no penetration power, and did do a little damage to the exit (not the entrance).

All in all, Ted Kaczynski was correct - and the madness will only continue until humanity self-destructs from its use of usury in its greed and lusts on a planet without a square inch of humanity or a square inch of nature. The worst is yet to come, and the survivors will be destitute for endless generations on a plundered planet.

Anyway, thanks GLPers, I mostly read, because you say all that needs to be said.

^^^^^^^^ This X 1000!!!

You should just go ahead and change your handle to "TooCowardlyToHandleTheTruth".

EASY? Who said it was easy?

What would be even harder is taking some dipshit fatass cop's word that my child was dead. Or some useless politician.

Oh HELL TO THE NO! I'm going to KNOW the truth.

No it wouldn't be easy.

It's every parent's second worst nightmare.

could not find any info on this poster JanJan. perhaps I am not doing it right.

I could do a hand or foot, but not a mangled face.

IF they were shot in the face, the entrance wounds are small holes!!!

But that is a big IF.

It's clear they did not want the parents to see any evidence.

You have made the most sense. Thank you.

That interview with AC was very telling and disturbing.

Just because you/we have not seen the mother contravening the NYT allegation does not mean she is not denying it.

Everyone mourns differently.

Most folks would not necessarily have to see the alleged wounds to identify a body.

Most people have a mole, or a birth-mark or something about their body that would ONLY be identifiable to the Parent or Guardian.

So, as far as being "too gruesom", I'm not buying it.

Besides everyone has a different tolerance for viewing traumatic scenes.

Someone with a medical background, Nurse, Orderly, or Nurse Assistant could deal with it. I'm sure that out of that number of alleged victims there was at least one of those as a parent or family member?

Or perhaps someone with combat experience in the military?

Absolutely. How do we find this out? I really think we as a country need to know if the parents were NOT allowed to see their children.

Yeah, not to be gross, but the human body begins to decompose pretty quickly after death. 20 or so bodies decomposing, even for 24 to 48 hours is going to be pretty disgusting. That's actually the first thing that came to mind when I heard they weren't releasing the bodies that day.

The parents were taken one by one (or as couples, mother and father) to the room within the school to identify each child. It is my understanding that officials had a qualified list of who was who before the parents were led in. Of course, this was to be sure parents only viewed their children.

Parents were also given the option to see their child again at the morgue...

It is my understanding the bodies needed to be identified before moving.

"By late last night, parents were being called one at a time to make identifications" ~ newyorkdailynews

Baloney. You made all of this up out of your sick head!

The Official Story is that parents identified their children only from photos.

They took photos of their faces and then showed the pictures to families of the 12 girls and eight boys, all first graders. “It’s easier on the families when you do this,” Carver said.

Relatives identified their loved ones not in person but by photos taken of the victims’ faces, Carver said.

“We did not bring the bodies and families into contact, we took pictures of them, of their facial features,” he said.

just to double check,

and there are several other available news sources which site the way the children were identified.
Google, "parents taken inside school to identify bodies"


I did however, find one source claiming the parents were shown pictures taken inside the school, and asked to identify them that way.

Only one source said this, and it was written the day of the shooting.... and as everyone here has (beaten it to officially done, through multiple threads about a conspiracy with a purpose....I simply cannot wrap my head around) details changed rapidly early on.

so there u have it.... yes, the parents had to see their children after the fact. I just pray for them, that none of them have had any cause to accidentally come across all the garbage posted on this site about their murder..... and the notion it was pre-planned by the government, or some other secret society for the greater purpose.... of what? I dunno. Libor? mind control testing? an Israeli death squad in the USA because their bullying in Washington has failed? the Batman movie predicted it, Hunger Games movie predicted it, Obama orchestrated the shootings in Newtown and Aurora to force Cerebus to Sell Bushmaster, A Secret Society Used The Hunger Games as a Model in Drugging Adam Lanza to Carry Out a Mass Killing to Provide the Pretext to Take Away Our Freedoms, a connection between the chosen name of "Super Storm Sandy" and Sandy Hook Elementary, Strike points line up to make a pentagram...... on and on....

"As with every tragedy that takes place in America these days, it didn't take long for "truthers," racists, and other fringe people to concoct conspiracy theories about the Sandy Hook massacre — myths that would be laughable if they weren't so offensive." ~ AtlanticWire

Just The Facts

1.The average conspiracy theorist will argue with NASA, Nobel-prize winners and every expert in the world despite having fewer qualifications than the average fry cook.
2.Conspiracy theorists view logical argument as cheating.
3.Like pissing fetishes and tentacle rape comics, conspiracy theories are a problem made much worse by the Internet.
4.Never assume malice when incompetence will do.

An Ego Issue

Conspiracy theorists divide the world into "Everyone even remotely involved/qualified vs. Me," and decide that they'll win single-handedly. They're like Rambo with bullshit instead of bullets.

They tend to enjoy the ego-boost that comes with thinking of oneself as the only intelligent objector in a world of sheeple. When the government has to spend billions of dollars shuttling Elvis from Roswell to the Bermuda Triangle and back in black helicopters before you can feel good about yourself, you've got to be pretty tragic.
Shadowy Organizations

Conspiracy theorists believe the world is run by schizophrenic shadowy organizations who - despite conspiring with millions in perfect silence - can't resist putting clues in things like major public monuments and every note of currency ever printed. Making the average Batman villain look like Professor Moriarty.

At the last count the world was secretly being run by the Illuminati, Knights Templar, Freemasons, Trilateral commission, New World Order, Skull & Bones society, Bilderberg group, Nine Unknown Men and the ever-popular Jews. It's unknown whether they all vote on various issues or just ask Dan Brown whose turn it is each week. Conspiracy theorists honestly believe that these invisible elites have run thousands of years of history but are incapable of killing someone who lives in a basement and shouts on street corners.

Conspiracy Theorist Abilities

Conspiracy theorists display incredible attention to detail, an even more incredible ability to ignore details they don't like, obsessive focus and a complete absence of social skills.


Am I saying there are NO conspiracies? no, of course not. What I am saying is most times there is no evidence, proof is mere speculation, and logic is straight out the window. Where there is true conspiracy, there is truth to be sited.

I wish this website would leave this particular issue alone already. Sandy Hook was a tragedy..... period. The the parents and community heal.

Point blank would cause least amount of visual damage from the front - just small hole - most damage would be from exit wound.

any news on this stuff?

WHAT?
So that means basically that "everyone" was shot in the face? That is just a little too weird. Were they tired and bound forward facing? The human response would be to duck/cover/huddle once the first shots were fired .... and a random let loose barrage "just happened" to take everyones face off? Including the mother? Something very very suspicious about this ....
