Sandy Hook Shooting Essay

On December 14th, 2012 at 9:35 A.M., at Sandy Hook Elementary School, there was reportedly a mass shooting that killed 20 children between the ages of six and seven as well as six adult staff members.

Its things like that raise a lot of questions on how the people who were posting all over social media about it knew that the shooting was going to occur.

Mike Powers, a professional military investigator, and ballistics experts, observed that a man of this small of build and of that maybe disorders, could not have carried that much weaponry and ammunition. Powers also states that Lanza could not have fired so many rounds in that short of time without destabilizing himself from the intense noise from the Bushmaster due to his Asperger syndrome. It was also proven that Adam Lanza’s DNA was not found at the crime scene in the school, or on the vehicle that was holding the weapons for the crime. Lauren Rouseassu’s, a substitute teacher at Sandy Hook, DNA was would found on the rifle grip and multiple magazines maybe proving that she was just handed the gun and told to place it somewhere within the
