HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) — The Latest on the FBI's release of more than 1,500 pages of documents related to its investigation of the 2012 school massacre in Newtown (all times local):

4:40 p.m.

FBI documents say there was evidence the Newtown school shooter had an interest in children that could be categorized as pedophilia, but there was no proof he ever acted out on that interest.

The records were among more than 1,500 pages of documents released by the FBI on Tuesday in connection with its investigation of the December 2012 shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Connecticut. Twenty-year-old Adam Lanza fatally shot 20 first-graders and six educators before killing himself as police arrived.

. . .

The records also say there was evidence Lanza began contemplating the attack as early as March 2011.

3. I wrote in the other thread, that this report is poorly constructed

He was not able to be around other people. I think he had a lot going on - and acting on sexual fantasies and having them is different. IMO his PRIMARY problem was schizophrenia. And then a lot of other 'stuff' that contributed to what happened. But he was not 'just' asperger's. He was psychotic.

No clinician in their right mind would entertain 'just' asperger's --- in hindsight

4. Motive is (technically and legally, but almost never) irrelevant in court. It is NEVER irrelevant in

real life.
