Photos inside Virginia shooters apt. Reminiscent of Adam Lanza's house?

Weren't all his Twitter entries from one day too?

Kinda seems staged now

When it comes out of a government manual there is no room for improvisation

GOOD FIND OP 5 STARS

Thank you!

I don't agree with that, my room is much more of a complete mess but because of clothes on the floor.

What I see over and over again in the pictures of killers homes is a feeling of solitude and darkness accompanied by an open computer.

What grabs my attention is the computer, they are always positioned and opened as if it happened right before the killing, normally and I think most would agree that if you temporarily open or keep a computer open you usually just push it with your feet straight against or under the table.

Now lets say yeah he's a slob and he kept the computer in the middle of the room... where are shoes, socks or damn belt on the floor.

Looks like he stole the light tripod stands from the camera crew at his former job. Of course he did

The point is that they don't have any personal items. No figurines, vases, action figures, movie posters, art, plants, aquariums, plastic bins, shelves, books, dvds, cds, etc, whatever.

Beyond the furniture there's not much to personalize the space.

Make what you want of that but the OPs original point is valid. They are similarly devoid of personalization.

Mental Illness on steroids !

Both sets of pics places are Too CLEAN. Looks staged. especially LANZA do you think he cleaned up after himself? Carpets and desk clean

If you think that this shooting is a "set-up" then you basically believe that every act of murder that rises to prominence in the media (for whatever reason) is a set up. So good for you.

This is as clean and simple as can be. Furthermore if it was a set up it doesn't actually further the agendas claimed that such shooting further.

This will not lead to gun control. It was a handgun. If it was a set up it would be an AR15. The victims would be black not white. The murderer would not be black and gay. The murderer would not have a clear history or employment problems and mental instability.

This actually is detrimental to big government causes be cause it spotlights the actually problems... media inciting racial hatred an creating a victim mentality that is unwarranted and mental instability.

Crazy people live within the mind. Plus I thought the murderer was unemployed since 2012... meaning he was probably evicted from where he was living at that time... not alot of extra money for decorations either.

A pictorial illustration:

My first thought was somebody else got those hard drives before the police even got there - now that you mention the bedding I think the place was "cleaned" before "proper authorities" arrived.

I thought at first this was just a legit issue until seeing some of the comments also. Now I wonder.

OP, YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!! An outstanding observation. It IS very similar to the Adam Lanza set-up. And I do MEAN set up.

What is telling about these pics of "Flanagan's" alleged apartment is that there is NO PERSONALIZATION throughout the apartment. NONE at all, except for some pics of him as a gay hustler on the fridge. And some Pier 1 tea candles in the bathroom.

No personal decoration, no pics (other than those I guess), no stuffed animals or nicnacks. None of the things that even CRAZY people have all through their house. Crazy people usually have MORE stuff than sane people. Frequently a LOT more.

This apartment DEFINITELY looks like a set up. And why would they create such a barren setting for their character? Because they don't want to SCREW IT UP!!! They know that people will be reviewing and analyzing these photos with a fine tooth comb and they don't want to leave anything that might be a clue that it's not what it seems. Anything you leave might somehow turn out to be a "mistake". So thus you have the barren, unnatural set ups.

We don't know who this character is. While it does appear likely that these two reporters were killed (as they seem to have a real history at the station, that doesn't mean that the killer was "real". Maybe the real Flanagan was killed and this guy was used as a part of the set up. Maybe Flanagan was programmed.

But whatever the story turned out to be, it's NOT a natural, organic murder story. This is VERY VERY FAKE.

how was he able to upload the shooting video he made?

Yes!!!! It looks like a hotel. NOBODY LIVES LIKE THIS, ESPECIALLY CRAZY PEOPLE!!!! Crazy people usually have TONS of shit - papers, pictures, stuff they dragged in from the garbage, whatever. If any of you know any crazy or just disturbed people, you know they have tons of shit. This is not a real scenario, nobody lived in this place.

Wash day tomorrow nothing clean right?

I can't post photos, so thanks for making that!

Yes, the photos are a complete contradiction.

We see a small focused area of clutter only on the computer desk.

The whole deep shag carpet seems immaculate though. No clutter dropped down the back of the desk.

Looks like an empty home for rent/sale where somebody just set up a computer desk in it.

Doesn't look lived in at all!

Wait so they BOTH don't have sheets on their beds? Wtf.

And who doesn't have anything on a bookshelf.

Not true.

Wow, empty shelves, I wish I could keep shelves empty for any longer than a day or so.

I will add that the computer he has in the pics above does seem to match the computer in video I grabbed from his FB where he shot a video of his computer from his phone. NOT saying that changes my opinion on anything, but they do seem to match.

Yeah, collector types tend to like saving things, including lives, best folk you can know. That's my experience anyway.

You're full of shit. I've known plenty of crazy people throughout my long life, I've even been related to some of them, and they always have tons of shit all over the place. Even aside from that, this guy has NOTHING PERSONAL in the apartment except for the fridge - at least from what they're showing us. No sheets on the bed? No blankets? No PILLOWS???????

C'mon, nobody lives like this. Especially no gay guy!!! This is OBVIOUSLY a set up. And they keep it barren like this because they don't want to put in anything that might strike a "false" note or could be seen as a clue. Safer for them to keep it a blank canvas we can project on.

He was supposed to have had cats in this apartment. I don't see any evidence of that.


"There also appears to be no evidence in the flat of two cats Flanagan was said to have owned."

"According to an unnamed source, when police raided his apartment after yesterday's horror unfolded the found the door smeared with cat feces and the carpets inside soaked in their urine."

5 stars OP, you are absolutely right! This is not a real apartment, this is a set up.

The video above was uploaded to his FB account 3 minutes before the "shooting" video. So it begs the question: When did he record it? If it was recorded earlier than the shooting, why did he upload it then. Its almost like he was in his apt uploading the videos (and making the one above), BUT that conflicts with the timeline and where they found him. HENCE, why the video above has never been released in the media and it was scrubbed in 90 seconds.

They scrubbed the house

Then maybe the apartment they're showing us is not the apartment he "lived" in, because you'd see those cat stains everywhere, especially on that obviously BRAND NEW MATTRESS!!!!!!

Which could be another possibility - that they're not showing us pics of the actual apartment.

Bottom line - once again - whatever the ACTUAL story - we know that they're LYING TO US.

YES!!! WHERE IS THIS CAT FURNITURE!!??
