compsports Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 I thought this article dated 12/16/12 might be of interest to folks on this board: http://newyork.cbslocal.com/2012/12/16/friends-newtown-gunmans-mother-home-schooled-son-kept-arsenal-of-guns/ ""CBS News’ Scott Pelley reported on “60 Minutes” Sunday that the gunman’s mother, Nancy Lanza, told friends that her son was brilliant, but disabled. He had been diagnosed with Asperger’s syndrome, a high-functioning form of autism, family friends Mark and Louise Tambascio said. Nancy Lanza was not working, and devoted her time to her son, Louise Tambascio said. “I know he was on medication and everything, but she homeschooled him at home cause he couldn’t deal with the school classes sometimes, so she just homeschooled Adam at home. And that that was her life,” Louise Tambascio told Pelley."" Of course, this doesn't prove he was on medication but where is the bleeping followup by the media? Is this also going to fall by the wayside like other stories that pointed to medication use in mass shootings? I don' know about you all but I feel like I am living in the twilight zone.

CS This is very disapointing that we can see this happening right before our eyes and there is no media outlet picking up this story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
