State Police criticize conference leak, mum on Sandy Hook investigation

A state police spokesman is taking another police officer to task over the release of confidential information related to the shootings at Sandy Hook Elementary School.

 

State Police spokesman Lt Paul Vance's statement follows Monday's story in the New York Daily News quoting an unnamed person who attended last week's International Association of Police Chiefs and Colonels mid-year meeting in New Orleans.  He says the recent seminar was designed for law enforcement professionals only.

 

The report focused on an alleged 7-foot long 4-foot wide spreadsheet in the shooter's possession with names, body counts and weapons used in other mass murders. 

 

Vance says the Connecticut State Police has not and will not speak publicly on the Sandy Hook investigation.  He the families of the victims continue to be a priority in this investigation and that fact was clearly stated at the seminar. 

 

He called it unfortunate that someone in attendance chose not to honor Colonel Stebbins' request to respect the families' right to know specifics of the investigation first. 

 

The final Connecticut State Police report is still likely several months away.
