in this article the picture of him in the Old Navy (orange) hoodie I saw that photo earlier and the article said it was from catholic school he attended. How old does he appear in that photo?

That younger picture, he looks the same age as his victims. The other one maybe 10. I am terrible with guessing ages tho. lol

The pic of the boy pointing fingers isn't A. It must be his brother.

Did you notice under the photo it says "Photo from facebook.com user Adam Lanza" - I thought they said he didn't have a facebook?

He looks between 10-12 to me. He was actually a cute little fellow. His face is full compared to the recent pictures we have seen of him in his later years.

Adam Lanza Haircut: 'It's Weird I Touched Him,' Says Barber

By Brittney R. Villalva , Christian Post Reporter

December 20, 2012|10:24 am

... I just thought the child couldn't speak. I never gave it a second thought. I thought he couldn't speak," Skuba said according to the L.A. Times

From the same article....
"New reports have revealed that Adam Lanza had gotten into an altercation with four teachers at the school, the day before the shooting." I hadn't heard this before - sorry if it is old news to you all - but really? Did he go to the school the day before the shootings?

i think he is dealing with the anger part of the grieving process. just moo

I agree about the anger from the grief. But I also think there should be some compassion for the mother and Adam. Perhaps had Adam received the psychological help he so desperately needed, his explosion would have been eliminated, or mitigated.

I think the obstacles to mental health treatment definitely needs to be remedied. The stigma alone to mental illness causes a lot of people who have mental illness to stay away from seeking treatment. I not only see Adam as the villain in the mass shooting but also a victim to untreated mental illness.

The pic of the boy pointing fingers isn't A. It must be his brother.

The caption underneath says the source is "from facebook.com user AXXX LXXXXX". It does resemble RL though. To the best of my knowledge there hasn't been a FB page for AL. Very odd.

I've read this a few times now, but there has been no confirmation by authorities.

Really? How can you tell?

I did notice he was making gun signs with his hands tho.

I doubt that the photo in the first article is AL the perp.

Either a different AL or a hoax.

I lean toward hoax.

Adam Lanza could have a Facebook page, but under a different name and/or alias.

The author of the first article still has not put together that the fake information circulated by the fake uncle is BS. These reporters are seriously slow and careless on their fact checking. While they mention it has not been verified- they should know by now it is not going to be because the source of the info is a lunatic. JMHO of course.

And I would like to know if it is true or not if NL volunteered or not at the school. Just seen again last night on TV not sure if it was CNN,HLN or ET still saying she was a volunteer at the school. :waitasec:

I don't know. I see this is labeled as him from a Bing search...
Looks like the same pic... still it clearly says "facebook"

People with antisocial personality disorder may be quite talkative, charming, outgoing and not shy at all. They are manipulative, aggressive rule breakers with no concern for the safety and feelings of others.

Ty The reason I asked is that my son's been asking me whether this little boy in his class may be like Adam because the little boy is very very shy and doesn't make eye contact when other people, including kids speak to him. And many of the kids in class are starting to become afraid of the little boy.

I find that so sad -- that it's so easy for people to jump on the bandwagon and misjudge people who upon superficial glance may resemble Adam in some way. Even on Facebook I heard there's an "Adam Lanza" there who had to publicly announce that he's not the shooter because people have been harassing him!

My friend's kids school had their windows covered this week too. School is out but they had 'winter camp' there for daycare for working parents. She felt kind of the same way I did though---ARE WE GIVING COVER TO PEDOPHILES NOW?

I have always liked the open, visible windows in classrooms.

If it improves safety, so be it! Whatever it takes!

I tend to agree with you. Given what we're told about Adam, he doesn't make eye contact nor engage people. This person in the pic is obviously engaging and looking directly at the person who is shooting the photo. This kid also has a sense of humor. Does Adam sound like someone who can joke around with others?

Dang, if I were this kid in the pic, I'd be p.o. that people are falsely claiming that I am Adam.

A Maryland high school student has been committed for psychiatric evaluation after his peers raised concerns about him, prompting investigators to search his locker and hospitalize him after finding a "credible threat," an official said

I wanna know whats wrong with parents, It's unbelievable how many kids have brought guns to school after the newton tragedy. I don't think most have to worry nearly as much about a a person coming into the school like Al did as much as you have to worry about the rest of the kids in the school and the lack of parent supervision. Out of curiosity I typed into google student brings gun (news) so many articles so disturbing.

BBM... What IS wrong with parents?? Excellent question!!

Any attempt to stop violence must begin with parenting!

Guns, graphic video games, rock and roll, or the breeze that blows... all worthwhile of mention, I suppose. But overall I just don't think that parents KNOW their own children... they do not stay aware of what is going on in their child's life. They aren't paying attention to what goes on in the next room. I do believe that most of us (participating on these threads) care and are involved but the overall population... no.

Obviously JMO. (I needed to rant, sorry)

 

[gngr~snap]

I don't put much stock in the google search. I tried it after watching an episode of cat fish (?) Anyhow, I put my photo in to search it and it sent back a bunch of baby photos lol

Not that it matters but it was Bing so I corrected it. ~my apologies...

Also, a custodian ran around, warning people there was someone with a gun, Varga said.

There is the same photo here next to a photo of his brother.
