Hundreds of children at the school that day survived, but the horrors have been especially difficult to overcome for some of the 6- and 7-year-olds who witnessed the bloodbath, even as the school year resumed in autumn of 2013.

Stephen Sedensky, state’s attorney for the judicial district of Danbury, Conn., on Monday released a report on the 2012 mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn.

The report concluded that Adam Lanza, 20, acted alone when he fatally shot his mother and then later fatally shot 20 first graders and six adults at Sandy Hook. 

“The purpose of the investigation was to determine what crimes had been committed and whether anyone will be prosecuted as a result of those crimes,” Sedensky said in a statement. “Based on a painstaking investigation it is determined that there will be no arrests or prosecutions. The Connecticut State Police are to be commended for their tireless work on this investigation and their consideration of the families and victims involved.”
