Conn. massacre records secret, media seek access

[Billybob]

Nothing we need to know here...

[There is no doubt who is responsible for the Newtown school massacre. The shooter is dead and the prosecutor handling the case has said he does not expect any charges.

Yet authorities are continuing to keep search warrants and police records secret. Media outlets have pressed for the release of more records, which could shed light on a crime that has revived the national debate over gun control and could change the way guns are regulated.

News media advocates say the records should be unsealed, arguing the public has a right to see such records, which include what was found in the house and car. They say records may be sealed only when an investigation would be hurt by disclosure.

"There seems to be absolutely no reason that they would need to. It's not going to jeopardize the case in any way," said Linda Petersen, chairwoman of the Freedom of Information Committee of the Society of Professional Journalists....]

This pisses me off and I'm not even a conspiracy theorist.

The CT state police are saying they won't release the findings of their investigation until it is complete, in June.
They refuse to even release a timeline of events or disclose if they found anything on the Lanza computer or if they know the motive or if the guns were locked up or not.

And yet the nation is supposed to enact new gun legislation in the meantime before the findings are even released.

This is arrogant government that has the attitude that we will tell you what we want you to know when we want you to know if we want you to know.

That's been pretty evident for a while - not to mention that they might just make things for you to see, or manipulate them to get you to see things the way they want you to see them. Don't be afraid, the foil hat really isn't as uncomfortable as it seems.

pay no attention to the man behind the curtain...

You mean the evil AR possibly wasn't used and this is all just to get our guns?

Possibly, the entire event...

The findings of this investigation are absolutely irrelevant to any potential laws that might be passed.
