The Telegraph in UK had a story. I'm not in the UK, but thought it was
fairly reputable?

Nancy Lanza, whose gun collection was raided by her son Adam for Friday's
massacre at Sandy Hook school, was part of the "prepper" movement, which
urges readiness for social chaos by hoarding supplies and training with
weapons.

"She prepared for the worst," her sister-in-law Marsha Lanza told reporters.
"Last time we visited her in person, we talked about prepping - are you
ready for what could happen down the line, when the economy collapses?"

It also emerged that Mrs Lanza had spoken of her fears less than a week
before the attack that she was "losing" her son. "She said it was getting
worse. She was having trouble reaching him," said a friend of Mrs Lanza who
did not want to be named.
