Full title.....................Who is Stephen Paddock? Multimillionaire Las Vegas shooter, 64, was a hunting enthusiast, licensed pilot and gambler with no criminal record who owned a $400,000 home in Nevada retirement community........................The man suspected of opening fire at concertgoers attending a country music festival in Las Vegas on Sunday night was a local resident with no prior criminal convictions in the state of Nevada.

Stephen Paddock, 64, lived just 90 minutes outside Las Vegas in the city of Mesquite, where he purchased a home in a retirement community for just over $369,000 in 2015 according to public records.

He lived there with his 62-year-old girlfriend Marilou Danley, the same woman police announced they were seeking to question on Sunday night as they began their investigation into the horrific terror attack.

Paddock had both hunting and fishing licenses according to public records, as well as his pilot's license, but no criminal record in the state of Nevada.

The retired accountant had worked as an internal auditor at Lockheed Martin for three years in the late 1980s, and was a manager and investor in apartment complexes located in Mesquite, Texas and California which made him millions according to his brother.

Contrary to earlier reports that the girlfriend was Indonesian, she appears to be Filipino, based on the names appearing on her Facebook page. Also, contrary to some opinion, I think she was an attractive woman, and some men - especially if they have drug or alcohol issues - can snap when they lose an attractive woman.

If she had recently left him, he might have taken out his rage on the nearest target - the crowd at the music concert.

It’s definitely got me scratching my head. The guy is dead, news says he was already dead when cops entered the room. Guy wasn’t “caught” in act, just found dead in room.

*************

I hope the cops do a gunpowder residue test on him.

He seems to have really thought out his snapping!


There are post doc students whose degrees and study don’t involve the amount of planning this guy’s “snap” took.

Living in 25+ places and not in the military?

Must not like people very much... moves before the neighbors know too much.

Agent provocateur or spook for Pootie Poot?

Disinformation, probably. If that page had existed somebody would have taken screencaps and they would be running viral by now.

Cameras set up to see when cops arrived? Why?


Could be just to know when to off himself. Or like you suggested, to get the perp out.

It looks crooked because it’s in 3D mode.

If that’s the case then it can’t stay secret for long. If he was a lefty anti-Trump guy then it will come out. People will talk.

But there’s plenty of conspiracy crap out there already. I haven’t read anything yet that convinces me of what caused him to go on this wicked rampage.

I thought his brother acted very oddly in the video I saw earlier today. Very odd. He was smiling. Bad optics. Perhaps he was just nervous, but he struck me as suspicious.

The guy in that photo looks absolutely nothing like Paddock. And if he had been doing that kind of thing, believe me, his social media would have been full of it.

"Clearly the left thinks this mass murder is for their benefit."

They are playing it both ways. Some say the shooter is obviously a right-wing, Trump-supporting gun nut, an "angry white male." Others are saying that the victims, presumably Trump supporters, got what they deserved, and that this is one of the first battles in the civil war, and that their side won.

Well, I’d assume by now they have fingerprint evidence. And that it would be consistent with a real shooter, not forced prints by coercion.

Yup and a complete autopsy. This could be a novel.

“Can a brain tumor cause someone to depart from an otherwise normal life and go on such a horrific killing spree with no outward warning signs?”

We don’t know that there were no warning signs. Aggressive. brain tumors can develop rapidly. Someone acquainted with him might have noticed changes in behavior and affect if a neurological condition was developing.

The brother says they didn’t know the father. They did know he was a criminal.
