The United States of America is presently experiencing an endeavour by the Federal government to infringe upon the American Constitution, specifically the 2nd Amendment to that Constitution: exactly the same attack that Australians suffered under the attacks led by the American Rebecca Peters of the National Coalition for Gun Control, leading up to the Port Arthur Massacre on the 28th April 1996.
Prelude: “On the 14th of October 2009, the Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton and the State Department, announced that it was instigating with the United Nations, an ‘Arms Trade Treaty’. The Obama Administration in 2009 was prepared to have the 2nd Amendment ‘regulated’ by a body outside of the ‘American Constitution’.
This was a “Political Agenda”! To infringe upon the Constitutional rights of every American citizen, the Obama Administration needed a catalyst, an event that would create the required mindset amongst the minions. Once the Obama Administration had created that catalyst, then the ‘Treaty’ with the United Nations could go ahead.
The United Nations conference on the Arms Trade Treaty started on the 2nd of July 2012 and was due to be completed on the 25th of July 2012. It is during this time that the catalyst would be required.
On Friday the 20th of July, just a week before the UN conference was due to end there was a “lone-nut” gun massacre at the Aurora theatre where patrons were watching the ‘Premiere’ of the film, ‘The Dark Knight Rises’. Twelve people were killed and 58 wounded. Police arrest a ‘suspect’, James Holmes.
This was the first part of the catalyst, but things had gone badly wrong. The main weapon used in this massacre was an AR-15 with a 100 round magazine, but the magazine jammed. This reduced the number of victims and reduced the overall required effect of the massacre. Furthermore, the supposed ‘lone-nut’ gunman who was supposed to have been ‘suicided’ remained alive.
When police arrested James Holmes he was seated in his car totally out of it in a drugged state and completely harmless. There is absolutely no way that James Holmes could have been considered in a condition to have committed the crimes he was later charged with.
There were also trails of blood and other evidence which instead of leading to Holmes’ motor car actually went past it and in another direction. And finally there were the witnesses who stated that the ‘fire exit’ door to the theatre was opened by a person inside the theatre whose mobile phone rang, and this door was left open for the gunman to enter. Ergo, we have at least two people other than the supposed ‘lone-nut’ gunman, James Holmes involved in this massacre.
The United Nations conference on the ‘Arms Trade Treaty’ was unable to be finalised and the conference was adjourned to March 2013.
The Trial of James Holmes was instigated so that it would also take place in March 2013, but the Obama Administration still required the second part of the ‘catalyst’ to create the ‘proper’ atmosphere for their infringement on the American Constitution. That ‘catalyst’ took place on the 14th of December 2012 at the Sandy Hook Elementary School in Connecticut.
The cryptic clue
What beheld those people who had viewed the film, ‘The Dark Knight Rises’, was the fact that the name ‘Sandy Hook’, was used within the storyline for a ‘Halloween’ massacre. Is there a precedent for such ‘cryptic’ messages? Yes!
Both on his website: https://terroronthetube.co.uk/ , and in his book, “Terror on the Tube”, Nick Kollerstrom mentions the cryptic message on the advertising placard on Bus 30 that was bombed outside Tavistock Place in London during the London bombing on the 7th July, 2005.
The required legislation on Child Homicides
- On the 23rd of February 2012, Connecticut State Senators Steven T. Mikutel, Leonard A. Fasano, Michael A. McLachlan, and Len Suzio introduce SB 1054, a bill “to allow the parents of a child who was a homicide victim to request that the autopsy report not be publicly disclosed.” SB 1054: An Act Concerning the Disclosure of Autopsy Reports, Sunlight Foundation/Open States, retrieved March 1, 2013.
- On the 25th of February 2012 In a memorandum to the state legislature’s judiciary committee Connecticut Chief Medical Examiner H. Wayne Carver II questions the necessity of SB 1054. “The Office of the Chief Medical Examiner as an institution and I are very concerned about the privacy rights of individuals who are examined through our office and particularly with respect to homicide victims whose family find their privacy and grieving invaded by a curious public. I believe that the proposed legislation is redundant of current statute, regulations, and practices. The Office of the Chief Medical Examiner does not now and has never released autopsy reports to the general public, let alone autopsy reports of a paediatric homicide victim.” Dr. H. Wayne Carver II to Chairman Coleman, Fox and Members of the Connecticut State Judiciary Committee, Office of the Chief Medical Examiner, February 25.
Existing law preventing disclosure of autopsies to the press or public is bolstered through passage and enactment of recommendations encompassed in SB 1054 by Connecticut State Senate and General Assembly.
- Section 1. Subdivision (3) of subsection (b) of section 1-210 of the general statutes is repealed and the following is substituted in lieu thereof Effective October 1, 2011
- (3) Records of law enforcement agencies not otherwise available to the public which records were compiled in connection with the detection or investigation of crime, if the disclosure of said records would not be in the public interest because it would result in the disclosure of … “the records of an investigation and examination by the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner of the death of a person under eighteen years of age caused by an apparent homicide, including the autopsy report and other scientific findings.”

Has there ever been a precedent for legislation to be amended prior to a massacre? ‘Yes!’ The Tasmanian government introduced a new Coroner’s Act in February 1996. In November 1995 the Tasmanian ‘Workers Compensation Act’ was amended to remove PTSD as a claimable injury.
The new changes to the ‘Coroner’s Act removed the ability of a Coroner’s Inquest to find a decision that was in conflict with a higher court. The removal of the right to claim for PTSD for the workers at the Port Arthur Historic Site allowed the Tasmanian government to refuse payment to most of their staff involved in the Port Arthur Massacre (PAM) on the 28th and 29th of April 1996.
The Carmel Elementary School Exercise
On the morning of the 14th of December 2012, The Department of Homeland Security was running an ‘Exercise’ (FEMA L-366 Planning for the Needs of Children in Disasters) at the Carmel Elementary School in Connecticut. At this school were assembled all the various players needed for such an exercise. There were the various ‘first responders’ including the actors to play the roles of children, and ‘their parents’, as well as ‘The Putnam County’ Emergency Response Team.
To quote the Putnam County Courier: Ironically, members of the Putnam County Emergency Response Team-a highly trained group of officers used when crises of this type occur- were training Friday in Carmel.
Please think about this for one moment! Police officers training for ‘when crises of this type occur’. So just how often do these type of ‘crises’ occur, especially in Putnam County? Once a year, once a decade or perhaps once in a century? What do these police officers do whilst hanging around waiting for such a catastrophe to occur? Grow a beard!
Is there a precedent to ‘specialist’ police squads ‘coincidentally’ training in an area when a ‘Lone-nut’ gun massacre occurred? Yes!
On the 13th of November 1990 at Aramoana in New Zealand, the New Zealand Police ‘Armed Offenders Squad’ was coincidentally training in the area. It only took this squad 34 hours (over three days) to locate and shoot the gunman, David Gray, at his home. Seconded to this New Zealand police squad was Sgt. Michael Charles Dyson of the Tasmania Police SOG (Special Operations Group), who featured in the Port Arthur Massacre at Port Arthur on the 28th of April 1996.
The Putnam County Courier then tells us: ‘Sheriff Don Smith said the team members contacted officials in Connecticut and offered their assistance”. “Our ERT was thanked but since the scene in Connecticut was secured in a matter of minutes, there was no need for the local police to respond.”
Ummhhh! I thought it was the ‘local police’ that attended at the Sandy Hook Elementary School within minutes and secured the crime scene, thus robbing the Putnam ERT of the glory that they had trained for so diligently for the past years. But what happened to the ‘Protocols’?
The Protocols
When ‘Federal Governments’ put money into the training of such quasi-military police, they also put into place certain protocols so as to ensure that these highly trained quasi-military police are not wasted. Thus when ‘Terrorist’ activities, such as massacres, school massacres, or other massacres occur the local police are required to ‘Stand down’ or step aside and wait for these specifically trained quasi-military police to assemble, travel to the scene of the massacre and then follow through with their highly trained procedures to arrest or negate the ‘terrorists’.
In other words, the police dispatchers at both Aurora, Colorado and Newtown in Connecticut, failed to follow the proper protocols when they initially received 911 calls in regard to these massacres. Perhaps that was due to the fact that the first reports were simply of ‘shots fired’.
Is there a precedent of uniformed police ignoring these ‘Protocols’ and arresting a ‘lone-nut’ gunman? Yes!
In the Hoddle Street Massacre in Melbourne, Australia on the 9th of August 1987, a uniform Divisional Van crew from the Fitzroy Police Station, either failed to hear, or ignored the dispatchers call (VKC) for uniform members to seal the area, and await the arrival of the SOG (Special Operations Group or Sons of God) and were able to arrest the shooter, Julian Knight.
What is extremely interesting about Julian Knight is that at the time of his arrest he was under a psychosis, in that he believed he was shooting ‘Invading Martians’. But not only that, Knight had placed a bullet in his top shirt pocket with which to commit ‘suicide’ if he was about to be arrested by the ‘Martian Police’. The SOG’s in their black quasi-military attire certainly would have appeared to have been Martians to Julian Knight, but instead, Knight recognised the uniforms of the two policemen from Fitzroy and quietly surrendered to them.
Then at Melbourne’s second ‘Lone-nut’ gun massacre on the 8th of December 1987 at the ‘secure’ Federal building of the Australia Post Philatelic Section, Frank Vitkovic was trying to use a sawn-off M1 that kept jamming on him, and he was screaming, “How do they expect me to kill people with this gun”. Uniformed members of Melbourne’s ‘City Traffic’ police had been alerted and informed the dispatchers (VKC) of the shootings only to be ordered to secure the traffic in the area and await for the SOG’s.
In this ‘Lone-nut’ gun massacre, it was the intended victims that managed to confront Vitkovic and take the M1 from him before he committed suicide by jumping out of a 12th floor window.
The “Lone-nut” gun massacre Capital of the world
By the way, have I told you that Melbourne, Australia, is the ‘Lone-nut’ gun massacre capital of the world! Once Premier John Cain brought in gun registration in 1984, we started having gun massacres. (Premier = Governor) Melbourne has had two full ‘Lone-nut’ gun massacres, being Hoddle Street and Queen Street in 1987 and then two ‘should have been’ ‘lone-nut’ gun massacres at the Melbourne Abortion Clinic (2001) and the Monash University (2002), but the gunmen at these were both nabbed by the would be victims.
I guess that is why the NCGC (National Coalition for Gun Control) member, Philip Alpers will be instructing Joe Biden at the John Hopkins Bloomberg University meeting in February on how to successfully confiscate firearms. Mind you, Philip Alpers claimed 1,000,000 guns were destroyed but the actual figure was 670,000 out of an estimated 8,000,000.
As in America today, the ‘gun’ issue is to be considered a ‘Health’ issue, just the same as it was in Australia back in the 1990’s.
Putnam County Courier
But I have digressed. Back to the Putnam County Courier, where we are told: “Danbury Hospital was placed on lockdown since several of the shooting victims were brought to the medical center necessitating Putnam EMS headed to Danbury with trauma patients to divert their ambulances and rescue rigs to either Westchester Medical Center in Valhalla or Hudson Valley Hospital Center in Cortlandt. Putnam Hospital Center was not affected.”
Are you confused? What we have here is the Putnam County Courier describing various actions taken by various medical centres to take into account two different scenarios. The first scenario being the ‘Dept of Homeland Security’ exercise held at the Carmel Elementary School, and the second scenario being the Sandy Hook Elementary Massacre (SHEM).
So what we have here are the various ambulance and hospital services being involved in ‘exercises’ prior to a ‘Lone-nut’ gun massacre. Is there a precedent for this type of preparation prior to a ‘Lone-nut’ gun massacre? Yes!
With the Port Arthur Massacre on the 28th April 1996, The Royal Hobart Hospital was required to update and finalise their ‘Emergency Procedures’ called Code brown. This was accomplished on the 26th April 1996, two days prior to the massacre. Then The Royal Hobart Hospital held a seminar for 30 Trauma Specialist Doctors from all over Australia that was finalised at 12.30pm on the Sunday, just one hour prior to the massacre occurring.
The Tasmania Ambulance Service was holding a special training exercise in Hobart, and it was the attendees of this training exercise that were utilised at the Port Arthur Massacre in ferrying the wounded to the Royal Hobart Hospital. There had also been several ‘training’ exercises for the ambulance services prior to this event.
Even the ‘undertakers’ had been prepared and had embalming kits ready for use on the victims, much the same as what occurred at Sandy Hook! (EMA Port Arthur Seminar papers March 1997)
The Port Arthur Management also held a seminar which moved the hierarchy of that government authority out of harm’s way to Swansea on the day of the massacre and finally John Raedler of CNN was in Hobart to manage the ‘over 700’ journalists and editors from the South Pacific Print Media who had gathered for a seminar due to start on the 30th April 1996.
Carmel Elementary School conclusion
The Connecticut government’s ‘Department of Emergency Services and Public Protection’, under the auspices of ‘Emergency Management and Homeland Security had prepared a full exercise taking in each of the various government bodies that are involved in the ‘protection of the community’.
We look at the various Divisions of this bureaucracy under Commissioner Reuben F. Bradford such as Emergency Management, Homeland Security, State Response Framework, CEO/EMD Disaster Preparedness, and even Strategic Planning and Grants, and each of these various bureaucratic bodies had some input into the preparations for the Carmel Elementary School exercise. Actors to play the roles of children, parents and school staff, the local police ERT members, first responders such as ambulance staff and even the hospital centres were all prepared and on standby. When the acting suddenly switched to the real thing, all these personnel were ready and available to properly play out their roles. Is there a precedent for such an exercise? Yes!
Again it was the London bombing on the 7th of July 2005 involving Bus 30. When the bomb on this omnibus exploded, there was a very similar exercise taking place within view of the bombing. Actors playing the role of the injured immediately vacated the area and the ambulance services administrating, to the exercise immediately switched to the ‘real thing’.
Senator Diane Feinstein’s attack on firearms
Senator Diane Feinstein’s moves to ban all Assault Rifles, High Capacity Magazines and Pistol Grips as reported in the Market Daily News on the 7th of November 2012 is the exact same agenda used by Rebecca Peters of the ‘National Coalition for Gun Control in Australia in 1995/6.
At the 10th of November 1995 meeting of the Australasian Police Minister’s Council, its secretary Daryl Smeaton presented to the various State Police Ministers, the newly drawn up National Firearms Act, banning these very same firearms, with the Victorian Police Minister, Tim McGrath, to study the recommendations and report back to the Council at its next meeting in May, 1996.
Again in November 1995, Roland Browne, the Tasmanian representative for ‘The Coalition for Gun Control’ warned of the possibilities of a ‘gun massacre’ in Tasmania by these very weapons, unless new ‘National’ gun laws were introduced.
Then in March 1996, after the ‘Dunblane Massacre’ in which a handgun was the main weapon, Roland Browne reiterated his prediction of a gun massacre in Tasmania involving what he termed ‘Assault rifles’.
It is extremely difficult to consider that these moves made 17 years apart are not linked in some manner. For Rebecca Peters to obtain the desired legislation to remove the rights of Australians to own certain firearms could only come about after the worst ‘Lone-nut’ gun massacre at that time, and then for Senator Diane Feinstein to present the same criteria to the legislature in the American Federal government, that was followed with most wicked speed by the Sandy Hook Elementary Massacre (SHEM).
Then on the 27th of November 2012, it is announced that the Federal Attorney General Eric Holder has met with the Governor of Connecticut in regards to ‘Project Longevity’, in which State agents, academics and social workers will work with or for the FBI and the BATFE. Again, ‘Project Longevity’ was to target ‘Gun Violence’.
Now this may be a ‘silly question’ but what ‘Gun Violence’ was there in the State of Connecticut? As in Tasmania, Australia’s smallest State, the deaths by firearms including Police shootings and suicide, averaged about 7 deaths per annum, and that was the State where the Port Arthur Massacre (PAM) occurred.
The Real Thing; The Sandy Hook Elementary Massacre (SHEM)
Most schools are planned so that the school reception office and the Principal’s Office are within very close proximity to the main school entrance so as to minimise any disruption to the classes. I would imagine that Principal Dawn Hochsprung’s office at the Sandy Hook Elementary would have been in such a situation, especially considering the new ‘security’ system that was put in place in September 2012, which included the school exterior doors to be locked at approximately 9.30 each morning.
At approximately 9.34am the Sandy Hook Elementary School Principal, Dawn Hochsprung, along with Mary Sherlach and Natalie Hammond were at a meeting when they heard unidentified noises and then left the meeting-room and entered the hall to check out the noise when they were shot.
Police Radio Dispatch call times
Now the times of the police radio dispatches.
9:35:52AM “6-7 Sandy Hook School. Caller indicates she thinks there’s someone shooting in the building”.
9:36:38AM Radio dispatch suggests arrival of law enforcement at scene “front glass has been broken (unintelligible). They’re unsure why
9:37:15AM “All Units; the individual I have on the phone is continuing to hear what she believes to be gunfire’
9:37:40AM radio dispatch indicates law enforcement units and back-up continued to arrive.
9:38:15AM “the shooting appears to have stopped”
So what we have is from the time the dispatcher put out the call for a possible gunman at the Sandy Hook Elementary to the first police unit arriving at the school is approximately 46 seconds. There is a lot of activity that will occur in those 46 seconds. Later authorities estimate the time the gunman was shooting inside the school at between 5 to 10 minutes, with 154 shots fired from the .223 rifle.
Period of shooting inside the Sandy Hook Elementary School
The Coroner, Dr Wayne Carver tells us that most of the children shot had 3 to 11 bullet wounds, and authorities claim that 154 shots were fired to create those wounds, with three magazines left at the scene.
Please read those words very carefully! 154 shots fired to create those wounds! What about the other shots fired? The shots to shatter the security door/window, and the shots that riddled Lauren Rousseau’s car that she had parked outside her classroom window where she could keep an eye on it? (5b)
Exactly how long does it take for the staff at the Sandy Hook Elementary to realise that the school is under attack? We are told that the School Principal heard the noise and with two other staff members left a meeting and went to investigate but were shot dead in the hallway which alerted the other staff at that meeting. Exactly just how long did those events take? They should have occurred in less than one minute, so take that time as being one minute.
These remaining staff members in the meeting room would then have reached for their mobile phones and called 911. They would then be connected to the Newtown dispatcher. The dispatcher now makes the first call which is recorded at 9:35:52. Exactly how long would this have taken? Again these actions should have taken less than one minute to complete, so let’s say one minute, which gives us a total time frame of two minutes. Now can you fire off 154 aimed shots from an AR-15 in a total time period of a whopping two minutes? More importantly, could Adam Lanza have completed this task?
The actual time for the massacre to take place within the Sandy Hook Elementary School would have to be under three minutes. There are though extremely specific reasons why the authorities have to expand the time frame for the shooting.
Are there any similar events where the time of the shooting has been altered to adapt to the ‘correct’ time lines? ‘Yes’!
At the Port Arthur Massacre (PAM) on the 28th of April 1996, the shooting inside the Broad Arrow Cafe was reported by several witnesses to have taken in excess of 5 minutes, with the gunman using three weapons, an AR-15, an AR-10 and a Daewoo automatic shotgun. However, once it was discovered that six people within the Broad Arrow Cafe had died due to the fire-exit-door being nailed shut prior to the massacre, then the authorities reduced the time to 90 seconds, reduced the firearms used to only the AR-15, and then reduced the number of shots fired to 29, which had actually killed 20 and wounded 13, with five of those being shot twice.
The shooting of the glass ‘Security’ door/window
Had the shooting started with the gunman shooting out the glass ‘security’ door, then teachers and staff would have become aware prior to the actual massacre and would also have had the time to make more positive moves, including the 911 calls!
However, we are told that the School Principal, Dawn Hochsprung originally failed to recognise the ‘excessive’ noise that she and her two companions went off to investigate, and once this action was taken, and the staff from that meeting were warned that it was indeed shots fired, that the 911 call was made.
Now had the gunman been outside the ‘security door’ and then simply fired off several rounds to ‘shatter’ the plate glass window/door then there would have been a time space for the gunman to travel from the door to the first classroom, which could have been anything from 10 to 30 seconds. This should have been enough to warn the school staff and instigate their phoning 911.
There was a ‘security’ system, and I would think with such a system, there would also have been a prescribed action to alert police or other services that ‘security’ was required. However, could this ‘security’ system have been an impediment for the gunman to leave the building? Is it possible for the gunman rather than to wait and fiddle with the glass ‘security’ door simply have shot at it as he approached the door so as to continue on his way unimpeded?
The glass “Security Door/Window” may have been shot as the gunman exited the building!
46 seconds to vacate the scene of the massacre
At 9:35:52 am when the Police Dispatcher sends police units to the Sandy Hook Elementary School, there is a window of action that has to be completed by the time the first ‘Police Responders’ arrive at the School car-park at 9:36:38.
At 9:35:52, there is a gunman murdering teachers and students in the second classroom at Sandy Hook. The gunman stops this massacre and quickly leaves the classroom.
If the gunman was ‘Adam Lanza’ then he had to exit the building, deposit the murder weapon in the trunk of his mother’s black Honda sedan, and then return to the school building and then with a Glock handgun he does not have with him, commit suicide. This is highly unlikely, because there was no police radio communications device found on Adam Lanza’s body by the first police responders.
However, if the “lone-nut” gunman was a professional gunman, then he has to stop the shooting, exit the building, supposedly dump the ‘Bushmaster’ .223 into the locked trunk of the black Honda sedan, enter the red/maroon van and leave the school car-park just as the first police arrive, and see the van leaving the car-park, and ‘Request details’.
The ‘Bushmaster’ .223 cannot be the murder weapon
We have the time window of less than three minutes to murder 20 students and six teachers and staff at the Sandy Hook Elementary School. We have 154 shots to be fired to create those murders. We also have the 2004 Honda Civic sedan belonging to Lauren Rousseau riddled with bullets, as well as two other cars and it is these shots that tell us that the shooting of this particular car was a specific act, and not the shots that struck the students and then carried on through the classroom wall to strike the vehicle.
Again, we are told that there were only three .223 thirty round magazines found within these classrooms/hallway, but then Lt. J. Paul Vance does tell us that Lanza was wearing an olive green utility vest packed with 30-round magazines for the Bushmaster .223 rifle. (6c) Police evidence is normally specific. Why is Lt. J. Paul Vance vague in regard to the number of magazines?
Lt. J. Paul Vance is leading us up the wrong path.
Listen instead to Dr D. Wayne Carver. Carver tells us that most of the victims were shot more than once, most were shot between 3 to 11 times. Thus we must realise that these shots were not aimed shots, but rather sprayed. Again we are told that the students in the first classroom were huddled together when they were shot.
Exactly just how did the gunman get the students from their desks to run to the far wall and then huddle together so that they could then be shot in a ‘sprayed’ manner. How about by shooting at a target through the classroom windows, such as a parked Honda Civic sedan?
To create this type of carnage with a .223 cartridge, a shooter requires a 100 round magazine similar to that used at the Aurora Theatre massacre in Colorado.
The problem is that no such weapon is found within Sandy Hook School. There are the three weapons found outside by the first responders, being the ‘Henty repeating rifle, the Enfield and the shotgun, but no .223. The only firearms found within the crime scene are the two pistols, which is why the first reports stated that they were the murder weapons.
What happened to the missing .223 with its magazines? Remember the decamping red/maroon van registration number 872 YEO! Whoever left in that vehicle took the murder weapon with him!
It is not until 3:54pm that the media report a ‘third’ weapon found at scene, the “Bushmaster” .223. How does Lt. J. Paul Vance explain the previous absence of the ‘murder’ weapon? It was hidden in the locked boot of the Lanza Honda sedan, of course. That is why the uniformed police without a search warrant were not able to find this weapon.
The first evidence that Adam Lanza was not the gunman
Once it is realised that there was no .223 calibre weapon on or near the body of Adam Lanza, then there is no possible way he could have been the gunman. Once you realise that Adam Lanza was not the gunman, due to the lack of the actual murder weapon, then the question must be asked; “Who murdered Adam Lanza?”
It is impossible for the murder weapon to be in the trunk of the black Honda sedan. There is nobody to place that weapon in the trunk of the Honda! The ‘Bushmaster’ .223 cannot be the real murder weapon!
When we consider that the actual number of shots that were fired in committing the Sandy Hook Elementary Massacre, we have the ‘authorised’ figure of 154 rounds, which only created the ‘wounds sustained by the killed and injured, then the number of magazines for a ‘Bushmaster’ .223 to hold that number of rounds is a minimum of 6 magazines. But Lt. J. Paul Vance tells us that there were only three magazines found within the classrooms.
We then consider that the massacre stopped in the second classroom with less than half the students therein being murdered, and so realise that the potential for a great deal more victims could have been murdered had there not been the sudden ending to this massacre. Again that means that an even greater number of ammunition magazines would have been required.
Dr D. Wayne Carver’s description of the wounds in that each victim had between 3 to 11 gunshot wounds tells us that the shots were sprayed and that the weapon had to have held a 100 round capacity magazine.
Two different murder weapons
The first thing we notice that is wrong is that the ‘named’ murder weapon, the Bushmaster .223 was initially reported as being located in the locked trunk of the black Honda sedan parked in the school’s car park. It has to be considered impossible for Adam Lanza to have place this weapon inside the trunk of the Honda sedan after the police arrived at the scene. The only possibility has to be that a police member placed the bushmaster in the trunk well after the event.
However, there are still reports of gunfire being heard after the first police arrived, so that means simply that other firearms had been discharged, but who had fired those weapons and why? The Coroner, Dr Carver tells us that all the victims had been shot with a .223, and the wounds tell us that it was a fully automatic weapon fitted with a 100 round capacity magazine, not the “Bushmaster” as suggested by police.
The suspect for the shooting, Adam Lanza was reported by the Coroner to have been shot with a pistol. Unfortunately, Dr Carver failed to state which pistol was used to end the life of Adam Lanza. However, Lt. J. Paul Vance tells us it was the Glock.
Thus we know that a pistol has been fired at least once. Is there a precedent for a ‘lone-nut’ gunman to murder his victims with one firearm and then use another firearm to ‘commit suicide’? “Yes!”
The Dunblane Massacre
In the Dunblane (Scotland) Massacre on the 13th of March 1996, the gunman used a Browning automatic pistol to shoot all of his victims. Then Thomas Hamilton, supposedly lay down on the floor of the gym where the shooting had taken place and shot himself twice in the mouth, the bullets exiting his skull and embedding themselves in a wall a short distance from his head. The firearm used in this act was a Smith and Wesson.
However, the first policeman to enter the gym was an off-duty policeman dropping his son off at the school, and when he entered the gym, he saw the still twitching body of Thomas Hamilton, with the school Janitor, John Currie, over Hamilton’s body holding one of two pistols that were near the body. Constable Craig McCutcheon’s statement was quite specific. He stated he saw two pistols, they were not revolvers. So what happened to the Smith & Wesson revolver that was used to kill Thomas Hamilton? For some unknown reason Constable McCutcheon was not called to give evidence at the Lord Cullen Inquiry!
But why did Thomas Hamilton lay himself down on the floor of the gym prior to shooting himself in the mouth twice? Go back to the shooting of the Brazilian electrician, Jean Charles de Menezes on the London subway on the 22nd of July 2005. One assassin jumped him in a ‘rugby’ tackle, pinning his arms and holding him to the floor, whilst the second assassin then shot him in the head about 7 times, with a couple of other shots hitting the body or missing completely.
The question now is; was Adam Lanza shot whilst standing upright, or was he shot whilst lying on the ground? Will Dr Carver give us that information?
The suspect vehicle 872 YEO
From the SOTT.net by Niall Bradley, we have this: “The police also told the press they were “looking for a red or maroon van with its back window blown out“. The registration number for this ‘suspect’ vehicle was 872 YEO.
The first thing we must consider is that the first police unit to arrive in the car park area of the school was that its crew noticed a maroon coloured vehicle decamping from the car park and requested the ‘usuals’ on that vehicle, the registration number being 872 YEO. Again from SOTT.net:
The notorious car photographed leaving the scene of the Sandy Hook school shooting does NOT belong to Adam Lanza or his mother. The audio from the police radio contains the vehicle registration request and reply. The car is registered to Christopher A. Rodia, on charge for larceny and narcotics. Christopher A. Rodia: Rodia, 42, is from Norwalk CT. He has quite a list of previous drug and burglary charges, seems to be big on stealing leaf blowers and is currently awaiting trial for at least his 5th count of stealing a leaf blower.
The arrested ‘suspects’ – ‘witnesses’ – off-duty policemen
From the ‘memoryholeblog.com we have this:
9:39:05AM “Reports that a teacher saw two shadows running past the building – past the gym, which would be rear (inaudible) the shooting
9:39:20AM “Yeah, we got ‘em. He’s coming at me down Crestwood Way! Coming (inaudible) up the left side.”
Then from SOTT.net we have this interpretation of the events, which I believe is a lot closer to the real event.
At 3.23′, the police relay a teacher’s report that she saw “two shadows running past the gym” [not “two shooters”, as we previously reported on SOTT.net]. This is followed by another officer on the scene who says, “Yeh, we got ’em, they’re coming at me! … [inaudible] … Coming up the driveway real slowly!” That same officer at 5.40′ says he has them “proned out”, which presumably means he has apprehended them and they are laid out on the ground, before another officer comes on to say, “be aware that we do have a second [inaudible] …”
“Later on, at 19.10′, an officer who sounds out of breath, like he’s just given chase, reports what I think sounds like “these guys” followed certainly by “multiple weapons, including long rifles and shotgun”. If these were found so early on, why were they not included in the initial press reports which stated that three firearms had been found – the above mentioned Glock, Sig Sauer and Bushmaster AR-15 rifle?”
Besides the above suspect “proned out” in front of the school, two other suspected gunmen were apprehended after they fled from the school into the adjacent woods.
So the Newtown Police have arrested either two or three suspects, the first at approximately 9:39 am at the Sandy Hook school, the other suspects after they were chased by police out of the schoolground and into a wooded area.
Again, after the arrest of the last ‘suspect’ police mention ‘multiple weapons, including long rifles and a shotgun. These weapons were a Henry repeating rifle, an Enfield rifle and a shotgun. Lt. J Paul Vance later identifies the shotgun as an ‘Izhmash Canta-12’ 12 gauge Shotgun. (1) Later, the Henry repeating rifle and the Enfield bolt action rifle are supposedly discovered at the home of Nancy Lanza.
What we must not do is confuse these weapons with the report of the ‘Bushmaster .223 rifle located in the trunk of Nancy Lanza’s black Honda sedan, parked in the school carpark at the front of the school.
You see, had there been ‘multiple weapons, including long rifles and a shotgun’ in the trunk of the black Honda sedan, then it would have been impossible to originally cite the ‘Bushmaster’ as the murder weapon as there would have been several suspect weapons. Again, who placed those ‘multiple weapons’ within the scene of the Sandy Hook Massacre (SHEM)?
So the local police have ‘arrested’ either two or three ‘suspects’ at the Sandy Hook Elementary School in connection with the massacre therein.
In a later interview, Lt. J Paul Vance of the Connecticut Police when questioned in regard to the ‘arrests’ made by the Newtown Police, stated that those men were ‘witnesses’ and that police do not divulge the names of witnesses’.
Then the Newtown Bee published an article by Andrew Gorosko, headed; ‘Police Union Seeks Funding for Trauma Treatment’ which ended with “A man with a gun who was spotted in the woods near the school on the day of the incident was an off-duty tactical squad police officer from another town, according to the source.”
It is a strange thing, but policemen who work in a district get to know all of the other policemen within and adjacent to their district. It would be a certainty that the police from Newtown would know the police from Carmel and vice versa. It would also be a certainty that the Newtown police would know the members of the Putnam ERT or any similar squad. Thus, if 3 to 5 Newtown Police were requiring ‘sick leave’ after attending at the Sandy Hook Elementary Massacre, could it be possible that their illness, being ‘PTSD’ was brought about by their discovery that other police and colleagues were involved in the murder of children?
Consider this statement by Police Chief Douglas Fuchs in testifying at the Newtown High School before state legislators serving on the Bipartisan Task Force on Gun Violence Prevention and Children’s Safety. Redding CT Police Chief Douglas Fuchs states: “By 9:45 that morning I found myself with two other Redding police officers and Redding EMF standing in the parking lot of Sandy Hook School.” (4)
When it is remembered that the Putnam ERT Squad leader volunteered to assist his offer was declined as the local police had already gained control of the matter and thus Putnam ERT was not required. Thus, there is no possibility that the Redding Police would have been requested to ‘back-up’ the Newtown police. Thus the only logical explanation for Douglas Fuchs and his two police officers to be at the Sandy Hook Elementary School at 9.45am, was if they were the three off-duty policemen arrested as per the Newtown Bee article.
Is there a precedent for ‘Specialist police’ to arrive at the scene of a massacre prior to expectations? ‘Yes!’ In the Port Arthur Massacre, in regard to the ‘Siege at Seascape Cottage’, Sgt Andrew Mark Fogarty, an SOG ‘Team Leader’ was reported to arrive at Seascape by Constable Barry Hyland, who stated that Sgt Fogarty arrived following two ambulances that had passed his roadblock.
Fast & Furious Federal Attorney General, Eric Holder to Sandy Hook
“U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder was visiting Newtown on Thursday (20th December 2012) to meet with first responders and law enforcement officials, a Justice Department official said Thursday. The official spoke on the condition of anonymity because the trip hadn’t been publicly announced.” (7)
Is there a precedent in regard to a visit by such a high office bearer speaking to the first responders? ‘Yes!’ Remember the USS Liberty in 1967, with Admiral Kidd speaking to the crew and personnel of that ship and then forbidding them to ever mention what actually occurred.
Rewriting of ‘The Truth’
From PAKALERT PRESS.COM: “Newtown – New information has now been brought forth by Connecticut State Attorney Stephan Sedensky suggesting that records pertaining to the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting have been sealed to possibly hide the identity of witnesses from multiple shooter suspects and that they should not be unsealed anytime soon.”
This article also contains: An article in the Digital Journal reports: (Neither) “Vance nor the CT Attorney General’s office have ever ruled out the possible presence of other suspects. The New Haven Register reports Vance having said: “Whenever you conduct an investigation you don’t speculate as to where it’s going to take you, as I said, we’re going to look at every single thing, every piece of material and we’ll take it from there.”
The CT State Attorney General’s Office is handling the investigation of the mass shooting in which 20 children and 8 adults died last December 14th.. The motion to extend the seal on the records for 90 days was granted by Superior Court Judge John Blawie, who wrote in his decision that: “The court finds that due to the nature and circumstances of this case and the ongoing investigation, the state’s interest in continuing nondisclosure substantially outweighs any right to public disclosure at this time.”
The warrants were for searches, on different dates, of the Lanza home, and of Adam Lanza’s mother’s two cars. One of the cars, a 2010 black Honda Civic, was the vehicle which Lanza allegedly drove to the crime scene.”
So what we see here is that all information in regard to the black Honda Civic sedan that was parked in the carpark of the Sandy Hook Elementary School has become sealed and to be kept out of the ‘Public’s interest’ until late March. WHY!!!
For a start, who placed the ‘Bushmaster” .223 in the trunk of the Honda sedan. (2) Again, remember the initial reports stated that the shootings had been done with pistols, the obvious reason being that the first police found the body of ‘Adam Lanza’ and concluded that he was a ‘Lone-nut’ gunman and had committed suicide. At this time the .223 murder weapon could not be located.
Then with the chase and the apprehension of the off-duty ERT policemen, we have the discovery of long rifles and a shotgun. I can imagine the actual policeman who found this weapons cache asking the question; “How the **** did these get here?” Again though, no .223 murder weapon.
One of the apprehended off-duty ERT policemen at the time of his arrest was wearing camouflage pants, a bullet-proof vest, and was equipped with four hand-guns.
Then at 8.00am on the 15th of December the media reports changed the number of handguns with the body of Adam Lanza from two to four.(2)
And of course there were all the other little anomalies, such as the gunman was Ryan Lanza, the mother was a teacher at the school, Adam Lanza was a student at the school, and of course the ‘actors’ who had gathered at Carmel Elementary School just up the road. But most importantly was the ‘getaway’ vehicle, the red/maroon van 872 YEO that was registered in the name of Christopher A RODIA of CT, but then supposedly residing in Florida.
Tell me, did the ‘first policemen’ at the scene of this massacre have a ‘Search Warrant’ to open the trunk of the black Honda sedan to find the ‘Bushmaster’ .223 inside the trunk of that Honda sedan? Of course not! Would such a policeman have a ‘probable cause’ to open the locked trunk of the Honda sedan? Of course, but let us not dwell on that.
Firstly to conduct a proper and legitimate search the police will need to apply for a search warrant. So what do the police find in the trunk of the Honda sedan?
Police recover long gun from automobile in Sandy Hook parking lot. “Police Find Long Gun in Trunk of Car in Sandy Hook Parking Lot, Newtown Connecticut,” NBC News, December 14, 2012.
This though is a slow motion view of the same video. I believe it gives a clearer view of this event.
There is no trick here, please watch this film and consider what you are seeing.
There are approximately 6 men gathered around the rear of the black Honda sedan. Some of them are wearing white ‘protective suits’ which indicate they are ‘Crime Scene Investigators’.
One of the men is holding a powerful searchlight and directing that light into the trunk of the Honda sedan. One man wearing white gloves is holding onto a long barrelled firearm. This man works the ‘clearing’ mechanism and a shotgun cartridge is ejected from the shotgun into the trunk of the Honda sedan. There are more clearing actions, but no more cartridges are ejected. There appears to be no other objects within the trunk of this vehicle. You have seen all of that; good!
Now consider who took this video, and exactly where was the cameraman, or was this video taken by the school CCTV security camera. I would believe, due to the movement and panning within this video, that it was taken by a police cameraman on top of the school building adjacent to where the Honda was parked.
The shotgun in the trunk had no magazine fitted to it, but when the police ‘Firearms expert’ clears the breech, a shotgun cartridge is ejected. This shotgun is identified by Lt. J. Paul Vance as an ‘Izhmash Canta-12 12 gauge Shotgun’. Now what idiot would place a shotgun in the trunk of their car with one cartridge up the spout? Who removed the magazine from this weapon prior to placing this shotgun in the trunk, prior to the filming of this ‘staged event’? As this shotgun was initially found by the ‘first responder’ police after chasing the ‘Off-duty’ ERT policemen, it would have been fitted with one magazine, but there are later reports of two magazines, so exactly where did the second magazine come from?
With the expiry of the Court Order in regard to public disclosure, news items report on the Shotgun found in the Honda Civic sedan, one reporting that the two magazines were found in the car’s glove-box, and another report stating that the shotgun was located within the passenger area of the car.
Lt. J Paul Vance had this video made specifically to negate the previous statements that it was the ‘Bushmaster’ .223 that had been in the trunk of the black Honda sedan. There is another picture of the black Honda sedan showing exactly where it was parked, and the yellow lines on the bitumen correspond to what was in the police released video.
There is one other piece of information that this police video tells us. There was no CCTV security within the Sandy Hook Elementary School.
More ‘airbrushing’ to remove ‘suspects’
The very first police responders did a ‘check on a suspect vehicle seen leaving the Sandy Hook School carpark. The suspect vehicle’s registration number is 872 YEO. The usuals came back in the name of Christopher A. Rodia. Of course there is no known link between the ‘red/maroon/ van seen leaving the school carpark, but on the morning of the 15th of December 2012 this photograph was taken of Nancy Lanza’s black Honda sedan as it was being transported from the Sandy Hook school carpark.
The registration number plate/s (872 YEO) from the previous suspect vehicle, the red/maroon van, supposedly owned by Christopher A. Rodia has now been attached to the vehicle belonging to Nancy Lanza. The red/maroon van no longer evidentially exists, nor does the person decamping from the scene of the massacre with the AR-15 and the 100 round capacity magazines he was carrying.
The problem of the ‘Bushmaster magazines’
When the ‘police first responders’ found the body of ‘Ryan/Adam Lanza’ they stated that there were two handguns with him, the Glock 10mm, and a Sig Sauer 9mm. Lt. J. Paul Vance will later state that Lanza shot himself with the Glock handgun. For some unknown reason the first reports of the Sandy Hook Elementary Massacre (SHEM) stated that the killings had all been done by pistols.
Now this indicates two things; (1) that the first police to arrive at the scene of Lanza’s body only saw the two handguns and (2) that there was no sign of any high powered weapons, which would include .223 magazines. Now most police are not stupid. Had these police seen multiple .223 magazines, they would have looked closer at the murder scenes including looking at the expended cartridges, and once they identified those cartridges, they would have started to hunt for what they would have then known as the murder weapon.
Thus, the first reports of the murder weapons being ‘handguns’ tells you that the body of Adam Lanza had only two handguns on or near it. Had there been any .223 magazines with the body, then that story would never have emerged.
As it was, when the first police entered the murder scenes, they would have seen and recognised the .223 fired cartridge cases, and then started looking for the real murder weapon, without success. It was only much later that police reported that a ‘Bushmaster’ .223 was found in the trunk of the black Honda sedan, and again the obvious questions are; “How did that get here? Who put it there? Was it ever actually there?”
Again, both police and witnesses within the school report that shooting was still continuing after the first police arrived, but that shooting could not have come from the ‘Bushmaster’ .223 as it was not present at the crime scene. Thus other weapons must have been fired, and of course Adam Lanza was killed from a shot fired from the Glock handgun. So, exactly how many shots were fired from the Glock? Who actually fired those shots?
With Adam Lanza being the ‘sacrificial lamb’ in the required political agenda’s ‘Lone-nut’ gunman, the question must be considered who were Lanza’s escorts to his death? Police Chief, Douglas Fuchs of Redding CT, tells us when he states that he and two of his police officers were at Sandy Hook at 9.45 am that it would have been himself and his two compatriots that escorted Adam Lanza to the Sandy Hook Elementary Massacre. It also raises grave suspicions as to exactly who murdered Nancy Lanza at her residence earlier that morning.
Thus, we must conclude that what happened to the children at the Sandy Hook Elementary Massacre will never be released to the public.
The Similarities between Sandy Hook and the Port Arthur Massacre in Tasmania on the 28th of April 1996.
Sandy Hook Elementary school joins the unique list of only four “Lone-nut” gun massacres where a ‘Professional’ shooter was used. They are Dunblane Scotland, in March 1996, Port Arthur, Australia in 1996 and Erfurt, Germany in 2002.
Just as the Sandy Hook Elementary Massacre is being used to infringe upon the American 2nd Amendment, The Port Arthur Massacre was used to introduce new gun laws by the Australian Federal government that had previously been unable to impinge upon those laws as they were specifically State laws, and the Federal government had no constitutional power to interfere, and so the Federal government simply forced to States to adopt procedures set out by the Federal government.
The supposed gunman at the Port Arthur Massacre was Martin Bryant who owned three firearms, an AR10, an AR-15, and a Daewoo semi-automatic shotgun. All of these firearms were on the ‘National Coalition for Gun Control’s hit list, which is exactly the same hit list of Senator Diane Feinstein.
Just as there were major stuff-ups in the Sandy Hook Elementary Massacre (SHEM) there were also major stuff-ups within the Port Arthur Massacre (PAM)
For a start, the patsy, Martin Bryant had placed his AR-10 rifle in at a firearm dealers shop to be ‘repaired’ and had been unable to retrieve it for the day of the massacre. Martin Bryant did survive the massacre and in an interview with police stated that he had only ever fired the AR-15 about 20 times, with sighted shots from the shoulder and that he shot left-handed, even though he was right-handed normally. Martin Bryant had never fired the Daewoo as it frightened him.
Once we listened to the conversations between Martin Bryant and the Police negotiator, Sgt. Terry McCarthy, it became rather obvious that Martin Bryant had been invited to take part in a Police “anti-terrorist’ Exercise by Sgt Michael Charles Dyson of the Tasmania Police SOG (Special Operations Group) at the Seascape Cottage.
The actual Port Arthur Massacre started at Seascape Cottage, moved to the Port Arthur Historic Site, and then returned to Seascape Cottage for a siege and the arrest of Martin Bryant.
The actual gunman for the Port Arthur Historic Site was a Benjamin Overbeeke. The intended target of this massacre was two coach loads of American tourists who arrived at the Site at approximately 12.30 pm in time to catch the ferry, The Bundeena, for a tour to the Isle of the Dead at 1.30 pm, but unknown to the planners the timetable for the ferry had changed from summer-time, to winter-time a fortnight prior to the massacre, and the ferry was not due for another tour until 2.30pm. This meant another ‘target’ had to be found for the gunman, and the supposed ‘safe-house’, the Broad Arrow Cafe became the target. This resulted in the deaths of 7 Australian Intelligence operatives. There have been named another 30 Intelligence operatives including 4 Americans, but not counting the American ‘Anti-gunners’ Mary and Dennis Olsen who were supposedly on their ‘honeymoon’.
Joe Vialls and Ari Ben Menashe
The person who was ‘In Charge’ of the Port Arthur Massacre was a MI6 assassin based in Perth by the name of Joe Vialls. Americans may know Joe Vialls by the name ‘Ari ben Menashe’ who was used to cover certain aspects of the Iran Contra Affair in the late 1980’s and wrote a book about his experiences called “Profits of War”.
It is highly likely that Joe Vialls was the gunman in the Dunblane Massacre, and interested people should read Sandra Uttley’s book on that event called “Dunblane Unburied”. In 2001-3 Joe Vialls resumed the character of Ari Ben Menashe to relieve the political situation in Zimbabwe due to the CHOGM Commonwealth Heads of Government Meetings) meeting in Brisbane in 2001.
In 2005 when Joe Vialls had been named as one of the ‘famous three’ men meeting on the balcony of the Broad Arrow Cafe at the Port Arthur Massacre (PAM) Joe suddenly died of kidney failure in July. However, Ari Ben Menashe returned to reside in Montreal in Canada.
On the 4th of December 2012, Ari Ben Menashe featured in the news at Montreal when his residence burnt down, which was simply a sign to say that Joe had been pulled out of retirement. That is why there are so many similarities between the Port Arthur Massacre and the Sandy Hook Elementary Massacre.
When Americans check to see which countries feature strongly in the moves to infringe upon gun ownership, two countries will stand out, Australia and Canada.

Redding CT Police Chief Douglas Fuchs states: “By 9:45 that morning I found myself with two other Redding police officers and Redding EMF standing in the parking lot of Sandy Hook School.” First reports of shots being fired at Sandy Hook was at 9:35AM. The distance from the Redding Police Department to Sandy Hook Elementary is 11.9 miles and takes 26 minutes to travel at legal speed. Assuming Fuchs and his cohorts were traveling at twice the legal speed (120MPH) to the school it would take them 13 minutes to arrive at 9:45AM.

As part of their investigation Connecticut State Police will not recreate what took place in Sand Hook Elementary on December 14 or interview any of the surviving students. Instead, police consider recreating the Sandy Hook School massacre parking lot scene to determine if the bullets fired into the lot were strays the gunman fired in teacher Victoria Soto’s first grade classroom, or if he was firing directly at arriving officers. Investigators have completed trajectory work in the classroom but wish to line up the police cars and see if some of the bullets were potentially aimed at them. No police cruisers were hit and no officers. The partial re-creation will in all probability be the last analysis state police conduct on school grounds before concluding that portion of the investigation.

Police say Adam Lanza used a pair of earplugs during his alleged December 14 shooting spree. Investigators surmise Lanza may have developed the habit while frequenting gun ranges “or to muffle children’s screams during his shooting rampage.” “‘It’s just weird [that he popped in earplugs] given what he was about to go do,’ a source said. ‘It’s not like he had to worry about long-term protection of his hearing because he had to know he wasn’t coming back out of the building.’ Police say Lanza was wearing an olive green utility vest packed with 30-round magazines for the Bushmaster .223 rifle. Lanza left a 20 round capacity shotgun in the trunk of the car he drove to the school. Authorities say each gun was “registered to his mother, Nancy Lanza, and appear to have been bought legally between 2010 and 2012 … Police also found bullets outside the school in the parking lot, including some in at least three cars belonging to school personnel, including Rousseau’s car.” David Altimarti and Jon Lender, “Sandy Hook Shooter Adam Lanza Wore Earplugs,” Hartford Courant, January 6, 2013.

Law enforcement authorities provide press with detailed information on event which becomes bedrock “official” storyline that Adam Lanza murdered 20 children and 6 adults at Sandy Hook Elementary School. After shooting his mother twice in the head while she lie in bed Lanza proceeded to Sandy Hook Elementary where he “fired a half-dozen thunderous rounds from a semiautomatic rifle to open a hole big enough to step through in one of the school’s glass doors.” He entered the school and shot Principal Hochsprung and school psychologist Mary Scherlach who after hearing the “sounds of gunfire and shattering glass, bolted into a corridor from a conference room across the hall from the classrooms … The first classroom Lanza reached was teacher Kaitlin Roig’s. Alarmed by the gunfire, Roig hid her students in a bathroom and closed her classroom door. Lanza passed by Roig’s classroom in lieu of substitute teacher Lauren Rousseau’s, shooting all 14 children who investigators believe were huddled and clutching one another in fear, in addition to Rousseau and a special education teacher who happened to be in the room. Lanza next arrived at teacher Victoria Soto’s classroom, who is believed to have hidden her 6- and 7-year old students in a closet. When Lanza demanded to know where the children were, Soto tried to divert him to the other end of the school by saying that her students were in the auditorium. As six of Soto’s students attempted to flee Lanza shot them, Soto and another teacher in the room. Searching for survivors police found the remaining seven of Soto’s students still hiding in the closet. They told the police what had happened. The two teacher’s aides who were killed were Mary Anne Murphy and Rachel Davino. It was unclear which aide was in which room when they were killed. The first officer arriving at the school found Lanza’s body near the door of Soto’s classroom. The intense violence lasted about 10 minutes. Lanza fired at least three, 30-round magazines with deadly accuracy. Two of the people he shot survived. All of the victims were shot multiple times. ‘I did seven (autopsies) myself with three to 11 wounds apiece,’ Chief State Medical Examiner Dr. H. Wayne Carver III said Saturday. ‘Only two were shot at close range. I believe everybody was hit (by bullets) more than once.’” Edward H.

Miller said that Lanza’s mother, Nancy, had battled with the school system and eventually took her son out of the schools and home-schooled him.” Christopher Keating, “Newtown Update: CBS Says Two Computers ‘Smashed to Smithereens’ In Lanza Home in Newtown; Subpoenas for All Emails of Mother and Shooter,” Capitol Watch, Courantblogs, December 16, 2012, n.t.
