Maybe I missed it, but I didn't see anything in there specifically about the "unnamed" law enforcement official claiming Lanza has Asperger's Syndrome. But, that is not the type of private medical information that any law enforcment official should be giving out publicly named or unamed, during an investigation, and my understanding is that was the official statement from law enforcement when asked about the issue, per the ongoing investigation. That to me, in itself, takes credibility away from the "unnamed" law enforcement official making the anonymous statement, if one really did that.


No, what he said was that a lot of false information was released via social media, which means that a lot of information people are going on may be false.

I didn't link the article because it specifically identified any particular rumor, but rather that it pointed out that a large number of rumors are out there.

Thanks for the clarification.
