"Following an evacuation of such magnitude the Sandy Hook fire depot would have been bursting at the seams with close to five hundred children and staff, and at least as many family members, in addition to police, fire and medical personnel. Yet apart from a large array of emergency vehicles at the site no aerial footage indicates activity on this scale at any point following the alleged shooting.

Instead, there are numerous strange encounters between broadcast journalists and a small group of wandering parents and children, many of whom are at best moderately curious and far from grief-stricken or hysterical at the prospect that their child may have been caught in the deadly assault. After such a harrowing event why are these select would-be family members and students lingering in the area and repeatedly offering themselves for interviews?"

How about that there is no evidence of 600 kids being evacuated? Only one (imbedded) photographer took photos of the evac process and there is at most two dozen kids in the three photos released so far. NOTE: I am talking about the phase where kids are being evacuated from the school to the fire station. Why did no videos capture the kids filing out of the school, or marching to the fire station? Why is there not one photo or video of the mass assembly of kids that is supposed to be inside the fire station (could the firestation even hold hundreds of kids)? There are a few dozen photos of kids being reunited with parents, but these are in no way convincing that there was 600 kids in that school that day. And there is nothing at all convincing about the photos (and lack thereof) of the two stages that should show a mass exodus and mass assembly. -HooleyDooley
Mike Powers team have been unable to find any records of more than one [911 call], which is strange as he says in his interview. -Anonymous Coward # 31744715

There had to be at least 40 adults scattered throughout the school....EVERYONE has a cell phone these days...Even many of the older kids would have been able to call 911. With HUNDREDS of shots being fired, there should have been a wave of frantic 911 calls for us to be able to listen to. You KNOW the media would be hyping these calls to pull on our heart strings......Has anyone heard a single call of a frantic female calling into 911? But all we have is one call?...Think about it. -Anonymous Coward # 26883360
