A hacked photo of Sports Illustrated model Kate Upton, 22, went viral Sunday after an anonymous user apparently posted dozens of explicit images to 4chan. Kate Upton has hit out at an online hacker allegedly responsible for leaking photos of her and 100 more stars. Verlander’s name and the phrase “Kate Upton and Justin Verlander OH MY GOD” became top-trending topics on the 140-character social media site Sunday night. The apparent hacked image is a “selfie-style” bathroom mirror picture, whic
The astonishing Connecticut school shooting Friday claimed the lives of 26 people in Newtown, Conn., will be tragically remembered for the 20 small children slain. Six adults were also killed at Sandy Hook Elementary School, however, notably Dawn Hochsprung, the principal and a committed educator beloved by students. The principal died trying to protect the students she cared for every day. The gunman, identified as 20-year-old Adam Lanza , started his rampage in the school’s main office, where Hochsprung had reportedly come out of a meeting. Hochsprung was killed in the shooting, the horrific sound of which was reportedly broadcast over the school’s PA system around 9:40 a.m. Friday morning. “She was really nice and fun, but was also very much a tough lady in the right sense,” Tom Prunty, a friend whose niece goes to Sandy Hook and was uninjured, told CNN. “She was the kind of person you’d want to be educating your kids. And the kids loved her.” In all, the death toll has reached 28 total: 20 children, six adults – including Dawn Hochsprung – Adam Lanza and his mother, Nancy, who he shot at another location. Our hearts go out to all those impacted by the Connecticut school shooting .
Did Connecticut school shooting perpetrator Adam Lanza preview Friday’s stunning massacre on the online forum / bulletin board 4Chan two nights beforehand? That’s the rumor going around, anyway. In the following 4Chan forum exchange, an anonymous user purported to be Lanza makes an ominous promise that he will kill himself Friday and it will make the news. He adds that he lives in Connecticut. The below screen grabs from 4Chan have been censored, but also appear to show other users egging Adam Lanza on (if it’s really him). Take a look … State and federal officials are still putting together the pieces of one of the worst mass murders in U.S. history and the 20-year-old who shockingly carried it out. The first Adam Lanza photos released last night, in all their boyish innocence, belie the violent thoughts he apparently harbored – and acted upon. Horrifying. For all the debate over gun control – and you can expect plenty of that – it is beyond tragic that no one saw, or maybe even could see, how troubled this young man was. Twenty-seven people were killed, including Lanza, who began the day by shooting his own mother in the face, allegedly with weapons registered in her name.
