Or I would have camped outside that school til the body was removed. cars have heaters, good ones in the north. Lived in a colder place that CT. and I am saying, no way they would have kept me from seeing my child.

Re: Sedensky fears harassment of conspiracy theorists
And the parents didnt try to go on national media saying "we must ban cars! One killed my child!"

Sorry this whole sandy hook lie gets at me. There was absolutely no reality to it at all. Pisses me off to no end.

Re: Sedensky fears harassment of conspiracy theorists
Another faculty member, Vicki Soto, who taught first grade, entered the school visibly stressed because she had spilled coffee on her sweater. She had parents coming in that day to help her students build gingerbread houses, and, fearful of looking unkempt in front of her guests, she marched fretfully into the nurse’s office to work on getting the stain out. Hochsprung followed after Soto, keen to help. Moments later, Soto emerged with a smile, stain-free and with a new lease on the day.

Interesting story...made more interesting by the fact that the only person that could have related it...Sally Cox...isn't mentioned by name anywhere in the article.

With Fathers Ignacio and Luke, Father Bob drove down to the Sandy Hook firehouse, where police officers allowed him alone to pass through into the cordoned-off school area. One officer asked him if he wanted to give the children a blessing. It was at this moment that he understood that some of them had died.

So they let him into the school...but not the parents?

No parent would have waited that long without breaking into the school and seeing their offspring identified.

SH is utter BS.

Just like Hitler in the summer of 1938 used 21 false flag operations to invade Poland and start his blitzrieg.

Exactly. There is NO WAY anyone would have kept me out of that school if mh child was in there, deceased or not. No way, unless they shot me, or tazed me and then hog-tied and muzzled me.

I know someone who died in auto head on collision. All bones broken. Was 32. Parents still saw the body and they could have authorized , by notary public, to have the next relative in line to identify the body. Nope, thry had to see for themselves. Dad stayed witb the body for 15 hours. Mother saw his hand and broke down. But SHE KNEW HIS HAND.

My words exactly, NOBODY.. and if someone would have told me I could not see the body of my child, I would have went ballistic. Photographs? Matter of fact I looked up the law, they can't tell you, you are not allowed to see the body.

Being one of the most heart-wrenching stories that the shooting could produce, I am calling BS on the fact that we are just hearing about it now. The media would have been all over this aspect of the story from day 1. Its perfect TV.

This tale just serves to give the appearance of third party verification. Whoever was behind this has a problem - the absurdity of parents not seeing the bodies of their children, and they need some sort of "proof" that the bodies were really there. Enter Mr. Priest.

If the priest was the only one outside of LE and the ME to see the bodies, it gives the official story an "out" that someone not involved in the investigation saw the bodies and that they acutally existed. Give me a break.

Another loose end to the story clumsily tied up.

 Quoting: swansong


They released the toxicology finally a few weeks ago, and hosted the scanned pages. I don't know if that host also covered the death certificates (giving sparse facts), but it was a Connecticut news source. It is the current thing, to release source material. I don't think I've ever seen AP release unfiltered, unaltered source material to their followers. In the case of the death certificates, they might have feared being liable to subjecting the families to harassment so didn't host. Same will likely apply to Associated Press. They'll say whatever is non-conspiratorial on those recordings and keep the rest to themselves. They may perceive it'd be damaging to their relationship with their readers. Instead, if they find anything incriminating, they will use it for their own leverage behind closed doors. Just expect more of the same, I think.

(In regards to the Toxicology reports, maybe what was so incriminating was what was missing? They did not have the DNA results, perhaps? Wayne Carver specifically warded people off making those inquiries (something like "if they said anything incriminating, I would have included it in the autopsy"). Maybe it has to do with the blood sample matrix problem? They seemed awfully worried about something when AbleChild made their request.)

Yes - without anything else to go on, I believe it's an official, public way out for him to not have to say anything about what he didn't see. If he'd "gone in to bless the bodies," he'd have to testify to that.

It was a Newtown officer, I believe, who asked him to go in (acc. to the story), but he declined. I've wondered if this meant a CSP officer interfered at that point, or whether the whole story was just tripe.

The thing is - why publicize that story at all? I think, again, it's because enough people knew Fr. Weiss was down near the school doors that they assumed (rightly) that he, as the priest of at least 8-11 of the deceased, would absolutely go in. The more traditional of his parishioners would even be hoping against hope for last rights, if he felt the souls were still with the body; technically, last rites may be administered even after physical death in that case.

The idea that a priest--their priest--would be asked to give the blessings, but not give them, is just baffling to me.
