Sandy Hook shooting details released amid criticism



(snip)

When Jesse, a student in Victoria Soto's classroom, noticed that Lanza ran out of ammunition, he yelled for his terrified classmates to escape.

"Jesse did yell `Run!' and four did run, and two others ran into the bathroom,'' his father, Neil Heslin, said recounting what investigators told him. "I knew that Soto was the first one shot, and then a little girl, and Jesse was the last one shot."

Unfortunately, Jesse, who his father said was standing behind the other children who were reportedly holding hands, couldn't save himself.

"He was clearly looking at Adam Lanza directly in the face," Heslin said. "He was only shot once, the only one of the victims who wasn't shot multiple times. His wound, as I've stated before in testimony, was in the forehead above the nose, right at the hairline.''

The new details of the massacre were provided to The Hartford Courant by an unnamed source, and some officials and victims' family members criticized the slow drip of information, saying it was creating more pain than would the release of the official police report.

Is it just the nature of the beast that details come out peacemeal?



I don't know, but it needs to be discussed!
