'''Adam Lanza''' (April 22, 1992 - December 14, 2012) was the perpetrator of the December 14, 2012 massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut, in which he murdered 28 people and injured at least eleven more. After killing students and administrators, he commited suicide. His brother, Ryan Lanza was taken into custody for questioning. Adam's mother, Nancy Lanza, was shot by her own son at their house in Newtown, CT. The school's principal, Dawn Lafferty Hochsprung and the school's psychologist, Mary Sherlach were also killed. Twenty children were murdered in the shooting. A seven-foot spreadsheet was found in his home detailing virtually every single mass murder and attempted mass murder in history. There is a theory suggesting that Adam Lanza was raped by a Catholic priest when he was young, then suffering in silence for years, seemingly acting like he was normal, but was bent on vengeance against catholics. Years later he would show the catholics that their children won't be protected as well, killing 20 of the kids at Newtown just before Christmas. Like most mass murderers, Lanza was frustrated with his life, and he wanted to take as many people down with him as he could. He hoped to outdo everyone on this list, particularly [http://real-life-villains.wikia.com/wiki/Anders_Behring_Breivik Anders Behring Breivik]

Adam Lanza was never typical. Born April 22, 1992, he didn’t speak until he was three years old, and he always understood many more words than he could muster. He showed such hypersensitivity to physical touch that tags had to be removed from his clothing. In pre-school and at Sandy Hook, where he was a pupil till the beginning of sixth grade, he sometimes smelt things that weren’t there and washed his hands excessively. A doctor diagnosed sensory-integration disorder and Adam underwent speech therapy and occupational therapy in kindergarten as well as first grade.

Still, photos show him looking cheerful. ‘Adam loved Sandy Hook school,’ his father Peter said. ‘He stated, as he was growing older, how much he had liked being a little kid.’ Adam’s brother, Ryan, four years older and now a tax accountant in New York, used to joke about how close Peter and Adam were. They’d spend hours playing with Lego in the basement, making up stories for the towns they built. Adam even invented his own board games. ‘Always thinking differently,’ Peter said. ‘Just a normal little weird kid.'

== Shooting ==
Some time before 9:30 a.m. EST on Friday December 14, 2012, Lanza shot and killed his mother Nancy Lanza, aged 52, at their Newtown home with a .22-caliber Savage MK II-F bolt action rifle. Investigators later found her body clad in pajamas, in her bed, with four gunshot wounds to her head. Lanza then drove to Sandy Hook Elementary School, killing 26 people with a XM-15 rifle before snapping out of his insanity; realising what he had done, he commits suicide out of guilt with a Glock 20SF.
