Newtown Leaves Nancy Lanza Off Victims' List

In the omnipresent vigils and speeches commemorating the victims of the Newtown massacre, one name remains conspicuously absent: Nancy Lanza. According to new interviews with Newton residents, the shooter’s mother has been subject of scorn and sympathy in the town, where residents either blame her for her son’s actions, or see her as another innocent victim. Nancy was known to have trained her son on proper gun handling, which many feel was wrong, given his behavior. “I am feeling that there is more anger toward the mother than there is toward the son,” one Newtown parent said.
