In the past year or so, Global Strategies Group has collected at least $ 297,000 from the Malloy campaign and
his shadow political operation at the Connecticut Democratic State Central Committee.
Since the shooting, people on social media have been quick to share stories suggesting that there were multiple shooters, that the shooter had ties to terrorist groups, that authorities are purposely hiding information to manipulate the narrative for
political purposes or, even absurdly, that this shooting was some sort of «false flag»
operation orchestrated by
shadow groups to fool the public.
