Anniversary of Newtown school massacre approaches; chilling new details emerge

New details have emerged about the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting that took the lives of 20 children and six adults last December.

The Hartford Courant paints a chilling picture in describing the state of accused killer Adam Lanza's bedroom following the massacre.

Investigators who entered Adam Lanza's home after he shot and killed 20 first-graders and six adults at Sandy Hook Elementary School on Dec. 14 found his bed neatly made. An armoire held five matching tan-colored shirts with five pairs of khaki pants. Black garbage bags sealed with duct tape covered the bedroom windows.

The paper, which obtained the information via law enforcement sources, reports that a nearly empty cereal bowl was found near damaged computer parts that had apparently been smashed with a barbell.

During the shooting, a school secretary and nurse remained hidden in a closet in the office of the school principal, Dawn Hochsprung, unaware that police were using the office as a command center, the Courant reported.

The paper also explained that the FBI is continuing to use "sophisticated sound technology" to analyze Lanza's movements that morning.
