Sandy Hook killer ‘was a paedo’

-

THE Sandy Hook school killer may have had paedophili­c tendencies, 1,500 pages of newly declassifi­ed FBI files reveal.

A woman who communicat­ed online with Adam Lanza – who shot dead 20 children – said that he thought sexual relationsh­ips between adults and children could be “possibly beneficial to both parties”, documents released by the US agency show. But she said he also thought such relationsh­ips could be “unhealthy” and he believed that he was asexual.

Lanza, 20, also shot dead his mother and six teaching staff before killing himself in Newtown, Connecticu­t. The files show the 2012 attack was planned: “The shooter did not snap, but engaged in careful, methodical preparatio­n.”
