On the eve of the six month anniversary since a man shot dead 20 children and six teachers in Sandy Hook elementary school in Newton, Connecticut, the mother of a murdered six-year-old British boy tells ITV News of her fight for greater gun control.
The mother of Dylan Hockley, killed in the Sandy Hook massacre, wants the US to ban assault weapons, and high-capacity magazines. Speaking to Washington Correspondent Robert Moore as part of a Tonight investigation into gun culture in the US, Nicole Hockley said:
"When the shooter stopped to reload, eleven children were able to escape. Had the shooter had a lower capacity magazine, such as 10 bullets in the magazine, rather than 30, which is what he had, there might have been more opportunities for children to escape. "
