I am still uncertain about which if any organizations (fed or otherwise) are involved.
however, i can well imagine that the LV sheriff has to watch what he says because of insurance considerations. depending on how the attack was carried out, the insurance lawyers could claim that the hotel or some other party (security firm? LV police? etc) was negligent.
The insurance companies probably have a vested interest in pinning the mass murder down as a “lone nut” who acted alone so as to simplify legal ramifications. There is probably a small army of lawyers that are waiting to rip into lucrative retainers and settlements over this. The LV LE and feds are presumably well aware of this. Their natural inclination will be to limit evidence and even possibly to destroy evidence that does not fit an extremely simple scenario. Anything else creates additional, potentially more difficult work for them. At the high level, the hotel owners are no doubt pressuring LV LE for very simple answers that just happen to exhonerate the hotel. Multiple people involved probably creates a huge problem for the hotel in terms of negligence, culpability and insurance. Thus the #1 priority is to establish some guy (any guy) as the lone nut. Get the lone nut theory out there quickly (facts be damned), stick to it, ride it, die by it.
Do we have any legal beagle input on all of this yet?
Hotel negligence. Concert promoter negligence. Concert security negligence. LV LE negligence.
