Gunman’s computers may be key in Connecticut school shooting investigation
Yahoo, The Lookout ^ | 12/16/12 | Jason Sickles

Posted on 12/16/2012 12:22:46 PM PST by EBH

For a young man who has been described as withdrawn from the outside world, Lanza's computer room is likely a gold mine for detectives, a veteran law enforcement source familiar with the investigation told Yahoo News.

"If he visited certain websites, they are going to glean whatever information they can from that and see what it means," said the source, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because he is not authorized to discuss the investigation publicly. "Does he have friends he communicates with online? Was there a fight with somebody?"

Lt. J. Paul Vance with the Connecticut State Police told reporters Sunday morning that investigators are scrutinizing the guns Lanza took to the school, including the semiautomatic military-style rifle the state's medical examiner said was used in the school killings.

"The weaponry involved, we are tracing historically all the way back to when they were on the workbench being assembled," Lt. Vance said.

However, he declined to discuss what else has been recovered from the Lanza home.

"Simply stated, we have a great deal of evidence that we're analyzing," Lt. Vance said. "The forensic part is an important part. That's not done yet."

While the gunman is thought to have acted alone, the law enforcement source said a deep dive into Lanza's computers could provide more clues.

"You don't know if this kid was put up to this by somebody else," the source said. "You don't know if there was a conspiracy of sorts. You don't know if there wasn't somebody who wasn't goading this kid on."

The closest you can ever get to actually looking into a person’s mind is to look into that person’s computer.

Interesting news alert this morning in Bartlesville, OK.

Police arrested a young man who was trying this same thing in one of the Bartlesville Schools. He tried to get some of his friends involved and one of them turned him in.

Connection? I don't know, but with the Online Gaming, there is a possibility. These kids get to befriending each other, then private emailings maybe. Discuss their plans, you do it, I'll do it. Just a thought.

Does that tattoo or writing on his wrist say “I want... die”?

Now, see, isn’t it amazing how the msm somehow managed to find the most freaky pictures of him to put out to the world but these two show him as the average teenager.

I read that his dad was involved with LIBOR in some way; was he supposed to testify about it at some time or something like that?

(The Colorado Batman shooters dad was also connected to LIBOR)

“Is that accurate?”

That’s from his real FB page that was deleted, the pic on the left is what he actually looked like closest to the shootings.

The other two I guess are for comparison to prove it’s him on the left.

Time will tell if this is authentic, they can’t keep using 5-7 year old pics on the news.

I wondered the same. Is that his photo now? If it is he gained a whole lot of weight and looked so bloated. I bet he quit taking some kind of meds.

note: his father is a big shot in finance as well as the batman theater shooter's father, Holmes. Both are to testify soon in the libor international rate scam, 16 banks and 3 trillion dollars. bells should be going off what a coincidence

Considering comments from another thread, maybe something of interest? Despite my reply with different guesses, I can't help but suspect the situation a little, too.

While the gunman is thought to have acted alone, the law enforcement source said a deep dive into Lanza's computers could provide more clues.

"You don't know if this kid was put up to this by somebody else," the source said. "You don't know if there was a conspiracy of sorts. You don't know if there wasn't somebody who wasn't goading this kid on."

Undoubtedly there is an email on his computer from somebody whose uncle’s brother in law is a Tea Party member.

It will take a while to get the story put together.
