Parents and school made 'tragic mistake' of isolating Sandy Hook killer
Gunman Adam Lanza’s parents and the education system worsened his social isolation in the years before he carried out the 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre, according to a report.
The Office of the Child Advocate, which investigated Lanza’s upbringing to glean lessons for preventing future tragedies, concluded that his parents, education team and others missed signs of how deeply troubled he was and opportunities to steer him towards more appropriate treatment.
