The first inklings of the Sandy Hook shooting and the Boston Marathon bombing appeared there. I follow sources who have been very reliable. However, I also keep checking for updates and more info. The sources I follow do too.
You can't assume anything is gospel when it first appears. Even later, you have to realize that the story will probably change as more investigation is done.
That said, clues begin to appear almost immediately as people see or hear things. It will move forward until you realize it's very serious or it's debunked.

RIP, Ms. Temple Black.

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
