I shared your same skepticism almost verbatim — until I by-passed as much of the LSM as possible including the YouTubers and took a second look at the evidence closest to the ground, including this police scanner dispatch:

An AR-15 can shoot 45 rounds in a minute. So it is reasonable that he fired 100+ rounds in 3 minutes and it ended by the time the police got there. A second shooter was not necessary.
And that incident with video showing the police chasing a man into the woods is on that police scanner dispatch and took place within 3 minutes of the dispatch to send police:
9:35:53a.m.- Dispatch: “Sandy Hook School, Caller’s
indicated she thinks someone is shooting in
the building.”
9:36:15: “The individual I have on the phone is
indicated she thinks someone is shooting in
the building.”
9:38:10: “The shooting appears to have stopped. The
school is in lock down.”
9:38:50: “We’ll stage up the SWAT and go from there.”
9:39:05: “Reports that teachers saw two shadows running,
past the building, past the gym.”
9:39:20: “Yeah, we got ‘em. Their coming at me.”
The guy that was found in the woods was identified as a parent last name Manfredonia who was bringing stuff to the school when he heard the shots — he was detained for awhile.
Wikipedia has some details of the event that ties a lot of things together. The kids who had been hiding in the cabinets in Soto’s classroom were apparently the ones that were on Gene Rosen’s lawn. They ran out of the school when the shooting stopped. That explains their comments to him.
I can’t see someone breaking into my home and killing my family in 3 minutes. What to speak of an untrained autistic kid killing 27 people -— incredible accuracy and efficiency.
Of course it’s possible to pull the trigger 45 times in a minute. But he’d have to do mag changes, and as someone who owns a scary Ar-15 type assault weapon, shooting 45 times in a minute with 30 round mags, with accuracy, is extremely hard.
The chief didn’t say that the parent was in the woods. He said no one was in the woods. And why would the parent be running in the woods from cops? Makes no sense.
Gene Rosen says the kids were from Mrs. Soto’s class. Of course he get the boy / girl ratio of the survivors wrong, and knows the casualty names 2 days before they were officially released. But it’s his fake crying, in EVERY interview, that really makes me shudder. Along with the video of the dad laughing, saying ‘you want me to read off the card?’, and then getting in character and crying as he speaks about his daughter. So weird.
But forget all that... the most bizarre thing about it is the lack of cell phone photos / video. How can that possibly be?
