Peter Lanza, claimed his son’s body on Monday. He said, “Our hearts go out to the families and friends who lost loved ones and to all those who were injured. We are in a state of disbelief and trying to find whatever answers we can. We, too, are asking why.” I cannot even imagine how he feels knowing his son caused something so horrific.
