Police: Sandy Hook Shooter 'Played Dance Dance Revolution For Hours'

posted on by Lynzee Loveridge

Connecticut authorities released the final report on Sandy Hook Elementary School shooter Adam Lanza on Monday. The investigators found no clear motive for the shooting that killed 20 children and two adults last December, but the report revealed more of Lanza's habits. According the report, Lanza visited a local movie theater to play the Dance Dance Revolution game three times a week for multiple hours.

The Hartford Courant newspaper published a profile of Lanza in February stating the police found "thousands of dollars worth" of violent video games in the Lanza home while investigating the mass shooting.

Details on Sandy Hook shooting and the influence of violent video games were stated by an anonymous law enforcement veteran in an interview with New York Daily News in March. According to the source, Lanza kept a detailed "score sheet" of 500 mass murders and was looking to get to the top by earning the most "points."

The report published on Monday confirms that Lanza sorted out the details of school shootings and other mass murders in spreadsheets.
