Remington Arms is seeking the confidential psychiatric records of the Sandy Hook shooter as the gun manufacturer faces a lawsuit from several victim families.  The Newstimes reports that the court request comes a week after the judge gave the families permission to inspect the gunman's computer.  Remington, which is accused of violating the Connecticut Unfair Trade Practices Act by marketing its rifle to civilians, argues that the Supreme Court’s opinion in this case put the man's mental state squarely at issue.  The company's attorneys wrote in a motion that based on publicly available reports on the shooter's fascination with mass murder, that  advertisements, even if seen by him, played no causal role in his decision to commit murder.  The lawsuit is expected to go to trial next year.
