SeekingTrinity -> RE: Connecticut shooting at elementary school (12/15/2012 11:31:41 AM)

I watched news coverage in horror yesterday...hand over mouth, tears streaming down my cheeks. My daughter was off at her elementary school and I couldnt help but miss her even more than I normally do. Most days Im glad she is at school because I know she loves it and Ill be honest...I love the break. But yesterday, I found myself wanting her home RIGHT NOW. She still doesnt know about what happened at Sandy Hook yesterday and Im not really sure what I can say yet when she does find out and start asking questions.
I cannot even fathom the hell those poor people in Newtown are going through right now. From the parents of the children who died, to the families of the others who lost their lives, to the first responders who had to witness what can only be imagined to be an horrific scene, to the survivors who had to endure what can only be the scariest thing in their life. My heart literally hurts and it has ached since yesterday.
Forensically, Aswad is sadly very correct. I know someone who is part of the forensic crime scene team for our local county sheriffs department and Ive asked him before why the hell it takes so long for them to move a person who was deceased from a crime scene. He told me that he knows how horrible it sounds to have someone laying there for hours while a crime scene is processed, but they want to make sure that they leave no stone unturned when it comes to the scene. If it takes a couple of hours to process a crime scene involving one person, I can only imagine the amount of hard work that has to go into processing a scene that involves the level of carnage that Sandy Hook Elementary experienced.
