Sandy Hook shooting: Victims of gun violence commemorate 7th anniversary of massacre

Families of the victims of Sandy Hook commemorated the mass shooting's seventh anniversary on Saturday with a stark reminder to the public: "[It] could happen to a kid you love."

Twenty-six people, including 20 children, were killed on Dec. 14, 2012, when a gunman entered the Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut, and opened fire.

Did his mother know he was hoarding firearms?

I believe she owned them and allowed access to them. Also knowing his mental illness.

Thank you, tulc. I don't remember whether or not I knew the guns were his mother's. I don't understand why anyone would need several guns.

His mental illness was OCD, correct? Autism isn't a mental illness.
