How could he do that when he left Marilou’s name all over everything? Her room, her slot card, her car in valet parking, her name associated with every home that had weapons.

Another story said that they used the security guard’s master key to evacuate the rest of the floor. I’m betting they didn’t check ID when they did that. That was the plan. That was why he had a suite, and, an adjoining room. He was going to be one of the ‘terrified’ evacuees almost killed by his girlfriends’s friends who had their own room and had gone crazy after they stole his guns from his home. [no guns in the adjoining room??] Except he got dead.

HIS name is on that room service receipt, at bottom:

Nope. 2nd room was so that he could (and did) target the fuel tanks. Security would know (or should have) that the shooter could be in either room.
