FBI is closer to drawing a conclusion on motive for Las Vegas shooting
Las Vegas Sun ^ | November 2, 2017 | By Ricardo Torres-Cortez

A month into the investigation of why Stephen Paddock indiscriminately rained gunfire on thousands of concert attendees, killing 58 and injuring hundreds at the Route 91 Harvest festival, investigators maintain that there is “absolutely” no indication the gunman was ideologically driven or affiliated with any international or domestic terror or hate group.

But investigators have made significant strides.

“We do know a lot more (about Paddock) than when we started,” Rouse told the Las Vegas Sun Wednesday afternoon. “I feel like we are going in the correct direction to understand why this happened.”

Asked if investigators have pinpointed a possible motive, Rouse said he believes that, “When we’re done, we’ll have as close to an answer on the why as you’re going to be able to come to without talking with (Paddock).”

But before that conclusion is made and publicly announced, investigators need to ensure that determination comes from evidence and facts and not from speculation or assumption, Rouse said, asking for patience from the public. "It won't be as fast as people would want it to be. This isn't a TV show."

There has been so little news coverage of Vegas lately. It has almost completely disappeared from the mainstream news.

I won’t believe anything the FBI concludes or does not conclude. No credibility at all.

If we knew the source of his wealth we might be able to see a motive. Alas, this investigation has had no “leaks.”

No leaks = Democrat or Democrat sacred cow.

Hence the timing of the Weinstein scandal. Known for years, but suddenly made front page so the Las Vegas foolishness would go to the back page.

Unbelievable narratives-that-sound-somewhat-believable take time to create and polish.

No. but it is a comedy of errors. Or an outright dramedy.

Lets see,who does the media protect and provide cover.....Muslims,Antifa,Trump Haters,Fags,and Muslims. I'd say one of those groups if not a few did the killing.

With a few exceptions, the FBI is a bunch of lying, liberal crooks.
