Five Big Questions Still Hang Over The Las Vegas Police Mass Murder Report (must read alert)
Daily Caller ^ | February 13, 2018 | Richard Pollock

Seasoned law enforcement and military experts contacted by The Daily Caller News Foundation have expressed serious doubts about the thoroughness of the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department’s preliminary report about the deadliest mass shooting in American history.

Here are some of the more important questions TheDCNF experts said were not properly addressed by the police.

Still Unanswered: What Was Paddock’s Motive?

Hosko, a former top FBI official, was blunt in his assessment. "They haven’t gone into the why," he said. "Tell me more about what was driving this guy. They interviewed many witnesses. What did they say? That part's not in there. There's no substantive part that tries to explain 'why.'"

[Snip]

Missing Autopsy, Toxicology Reports and Medical History

"This is probably one of the most significant medical examiner's investigations of the year," Black told TheDCNF.

"At a minimum they would have had a toxicology report within 72 hours. Bare minimum," Gould told TheDCNF. “He was high, he was drunk, he was clean? He was of sound mind? Was he on meth amphetamines?”

A Psychological Profile of Paddock is Missing

"Whoever prescribed, whoever consulted this guy on the couch, that's the sort of information we need, whether through a court order or however we get it," Hosko said.

No Substantial Financial Profile

Hosko believes the financial profile is critical in understanding Paddock."Where is there any kind of financial snapshot? It's a big piece that's missing," he said.

Missing: Photos and Videos

Black said the lack of photos tied to Paddock's activities while at the hotel is disturbing. "The missing pictures are more important than the pictures they released. They took hundreds if not thousands of pictures," he charged.

And what about that witness (Brittany) who saw a woman in the crowd at the concert that night yell "You're all gonna die tonight", 45 minutes PRIOR to the shooting????

This incident is critical to the investigation!

I want to see the results of gunpowder residue tests taken from ALL parts of his body. The skin and clothing residue tests should have been carefully labeled, isolated from each of the others, and protected from contamination. The “spread” on his body and clothes must have been very widespread if he did the tremendous amount of shooting.

In the linked article, the discussion of thorough rinsing of the body at autopsy worries me a bit. Did they even do widespread residue testing? The reason for this worry is that the absence of residue on certain parts of his body/clothing could be very telling. If residue is missing on his back, for example, he was likely “down” before the mass shooting.

” the discussion of thorough rinsing of the body at autopsy worries me a bit. “

Reminds me a bit of the “investigators” washing the flight 800 wreckage until it no longer tested positive for explosive residue.
Which was mentioned in an article at the time but explained away with a hand wave and a “those are false positives”.

Good piece. So many questions. This could be the least media discussed mass shooting in American history even concomitant with it being the worst. It’s like it never happened. Lots like we didn’t lose 60 some fellow Americans. What happened?

Five big questions? A lot more than that I’d say.
Some others...

If his plan was to commit suicide, why delete information and hide a hard drive?

Where are the social media profiles? If there are none, that’s even more suspicious. A gubmint contract agent would have a zero presence on the web.

Why so many weapons? If he was smart enough to plan this he would be smart enough to realize that you can only fire one weapon at a time, and that time would be short after you started.

What’s the breathing tube for? Was he getting high? Experimenting with mind altering gas? MK ultra leaps into my thoughts.

There were two distinct shots 8 seconds apart recorded from various videos at the end of the carnage. Paddock has a hole in his face and a hole in his chest from the pictures I’ve seen. Assuming that you can’t shoot yourself in the chest after you have shot yourself in the mouth, did he actually survive the chest wound and then 8 seconds later shoot himself in the mouth? Or, was he shot in the chest and then shot in the face afterwards as he lay dying on the floor?

Presumably there was a prostitute in the room the night of the shooting. Were the weapons hidden? The breathing tube? What was the breathing tube attached to?

I could go on and on.

At least they didn’t burn them alive like they did in Waco.

Where are the autopsies on the victims? What types of ammo were found — more than one gun?

>>Where are the social media profiles?

His lady had one.

She switched it to private after the news about the shooting broke.

She then deleted hers before his name was released.

Seems she suspected him. Why?

The caption on that picture says it all. When I watched these pressers first-hand you could tell he was speaking under duress. There’s a hand signal that POWs use when being photographed to show they’re under duress; I expected him to do the same thing.

But... but... but the majority of the FBI is “honorable”. It’s only the top dogs in DC who are corrupt. [s]
