Which shooting are you currently interested in where information or footage is being withheld because reasons? This could be CCTV footage, crime scene photos, documents, etc.
Today I learned that out of the 25 minutes of video, 43 photographs and 23 pages of text that comprised the manifesto Seung-Hui Cho mailed to NBC, only 2 minutes of video, 7 photographs and the text were released to the public. Some fuckheads at NBC took it upon themselves to gatekeep the rest of the information, leaving us with an incomplete framework for deducing Cho's motives. More than a decade later, the ship has clearly sailed on the rest of his manifesto ever seeing the light of day. So as researchers, we've basically been denied the full story, and will never know what Seung said in the remaining 23 minutes of footage. Freedom of Information requests for the V-Tech crime scene photos and 911 call transcripts have also been denied because legal jargon.

Obviously Vegas. We've heard nothing about it really. Nothing about Paddock. Part of me thinks, though, it is because there is nothing to learn about him. I think LE are just as confused as we are to why he committed the shooting. His reasoning died with him.

I'm hoping that Audrey Hale (Nashville shooter)'s manifesto will be released. There's a legal battle about it right now, of course.

Tree Of Life, though ig there isn't much to display. Robert Bowers wasn't exactly a social media person

Santa Fe doesn't even have the excuse of having a low kill count or a dead shooter for nobody to talk about it... gatekeeping at its finest :[

I would say Vegas, Uvalde, and Virginia tech which i can understand why they would not want a lot of info out about Uvalde and especially Vegas.

Not a proper mass murder but the Northern BC murder spree has very scant information on it posted publicly.
Besides that, take your pick of Chinese rampage killings and those are all severely gatekeeped.
Finally of course, there's still a wealth of information about the Nashville shooting that hasn't been released.

Although it is a familicide, I would like to know more about the familicide in Israel in 1986 where a kid killed 4 members of his family.
Netflix made a documentary called the motive, which is bullshit, because literally the entire documentary is about his motive and at the end of it all, it ends with the boy's lawyer saying that he knows what his motive is but he won't tell.
There is almost no information about him, and it is very difficult to find articles about the case.
The only thing I know is that an Israeli news interviewed him and that apparently after the documentary, he was fired from his job after coworkers discovered his past, his name and current photo were revealed after this last incident but now I don't remember it

Virginia tech, it's rarely ever talked about and not much information has been released about it. Luckily on the school shooter.info site I was able to read some of cho's writings and managed to find a documentary about VT on YouTube. Also westroads mall.

That's cool and all but I hope you eventually realize you're wasting your time caring about a case nobody else cares about because it's BORING.
