Was Sandy Hook a Hoax?

by Leland Benton

Dr. Leland Benton is Chief Forensics Investigator for ForensicsNation.com and is a bestselling author of almost a dozen books on cyber crime. Using his investigative skills he examines the allegations that the shootings at Sandy Hook Elementary School were a hoax. On December 14, 2012, Adam Lanza fatally shot twenty children and six adult staff members at Sandy Hook Elementary School in the village of Sandy Hook in Newtown, Connecticut. Recent allegations and a plethora of YouTube videos have arisen that the events at Sandy Hook are all a hoax. On the surface, this is quite disturbing to me for two reasons. If the allegations are true then we as a nation are confronting another serious problem; and if they are false, then this is a very cruel burden to place on the grieving families. As a trained investigator, I will look dispassionately at both sides and allow my readers to decide for themselves. I was taught that the best lie is always sandwiched between two truths. On the surface, what is to be gained if the allegations prove to be true? And conversely, what is to be gained if the allegations prove to be false? Where is the winner in all of this? These questions and many more are presently coursing through my brain and as I begin any investigation, the questions come at me rapidly and demand answers. Truth can be elusive, but sooner than later the truth always prevails.

Expensive for what you get

This is a very short book that opens with a copy of a Wikipedia article about the Sandy Hook shooting. After that we are treated to rambling thoughts about conspiracy theories and those that spend time purporting them. Then we hear about one of the author's apparent new passions, investigation of cyber crimes and criminals. This book is basically using the Newtown tragedy as a way to promote himself (?) and his own work. I recommend not bothering. You can read the Wikipedia articles yourself and view the YouTube conspiracy videos as well.
