We're going to begin today with a chilling look into the world of Adam Lanza — the 20 year-old man who allegedly show and killed 20 first graders and six adults at the Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut last December.

A report released late yesterday by the state's attorney in Danbury does not answer the question, why did he do it? But it does offer a stark portrait of a young, troubled man responsible for one of he nation's worst mass shootings.
