Original Note:

Investigators found the firearms were secured with gun locks which Ethan and his friend had unlocked, loaded the firearms, and then Ethan accidentally shot himself. https://portal.ct.gov/DCJ/Latest-News/News-Releases---November-2018/Report-on-the-Death-of-Ethan-Song https://www.nhregister.com/shoreline/article/Ethan-Song-s-parents-settle-lawsuit-for-1-14480859.php https://www.courant.com/2018/11/20/guilford-teen-ethan-song-fatally-shot-himself-by-accident-no-charges-to-be-filed/
