Adam Lanza is one of the most popular and richest Criminal who was born on April 22, 1992 in New Hampshire, New Hampshire, United States. His crimes caused Barack Obama to call for greater gun control in America.
Lanza attended Sandy Hook Elementary School for four and a half years. He began at Newtown Middle School in 2004, but according to his mother was “wracked by anxiety”. She told friends that her son started getting upset at middle school because of frequent classroom changes during the day. The movement and noise was too stimulating and made him anxious. At one point his anxiety was so intense that she took him to the emergency room at Danbury Hospital. In April 2005, she moved him to a new school, St. Rose of Lima, where he lasted only eight weeks.
Lanza appears to have had no contact with mental health providers after 2006. The report from the Office of the Child Advocate stated: “In the course of Lanza’s entire life, minimal mental health evaluation and treatment (in relation to his apparent need) was obtained. Of the couple of providers that saw him, only one — the Yale Child Study Center — seemed to appreciate the gravity of (his) presentation, his need for extensive mental health and special education supports, and the critical need for medication to ease his obsessive-compulsive symptoms”.
His parents were divorced, but his father still paid a great sum of alimony as VP of Taxes for GE. His mother, Nancy Lanza, was a gun enthusiast, and he had a brother Ryan who he had not spoken to in years.
He was home-schooled by his mother and was a student at Sandy Hook Elementary School for a short period of time.
The perpetrator was Adam Peter Lanza (April 22, 1992 – December 14, 2012), who lived with his mother, Nancy Lanza, in Sandy Hook, 5 miles (8 km) from the elementary school. He did not have a criminal record. He had access to guns through his mother, who was described as a “gun enthusiast who owned at least a dozen firearms”. She often took her two sons to a local shooting range, where they learned to shoot. Lanza’s father has said that he does not believe Nancy feared Adam. She did not confide any fear of Adam to her sister or to her best friend, slept with her bedroom door unlocked, and kept guns in the house.
