Sheriff shares new details about Las Vegas shooting investigation
Las Vegas Review-Journal ^ | 10 Oct 2017 | Rachel Crosby

Posted on 10/11/2017 12:42:00 AM PDT by Meet the New Boss

Despite Mandalay Bay shooter Stephen Paddock’s history of high-stakes gambling, he had no known gambling debts, Clark County Sheriff Joe Lombardo said Tuesday.

And, contrary to published reports, Paddock’s girlfriend, Marilou Danley, told investigators in Los Angeles she had no concerns about his mental health.

In an extensive interview Tuesday with the Las Vegas Review-Journal, Lombardo clarified those details and provided new information about the Oct. 1 shooting that killed 58 concertgoers and left nearly 500 injured.

The sheriff said investigators have made contact with Paddock’s entire “family tree,” including the shooter’s two ex-wives. Their conversations have shed new light on the shooter’s upbringing but have yet to answer the most daunting question: Why?

“We may never know,” Lombardo said. “All those things that you would expect to find, we have not found.”

"... that killed 58 concertgoers and left nearly 500 injured."

I had read, at one point, the total was 59 people killed. First, the total was 58, then 59, now 58 again? What happened to the 59th person? Just a miscount?

So maybe they are feeding us more BS. This is the article I read it, notice how they say “We may never know why he did it.”

This incident is probably going to generate even more “theories” than the assassination of JFK. The “grassy knoll” was probably the most egregious of those conspiracy scenarios, and has even less credence that a second shooter from a different location at Mandalay Bay.

How would the “second shooter” have gotten out when police had already swarmed the location from where the shots were fired? One possibility is that the escape was not down to the ground, but UP, remaining hidden for several hours or even a couple days, then simply walking out.

That, or a second shooter could have worn a hotel staff maintenance outfit.

“We may never know,” Lombardo said. “All those things that you would expect to find, we have not found.”

In the past, the code words "we may never know" have been used to signify that "the investigation has turned to a direction that we are not allowed to go". I would be more comfortable if Lombardo had said "We have uncovered no information that the shooter ever was associated in any way with Islam". After all, the shooter made trips to the middle east.

It is very important the media asks the right questions, regardless of political correctness.

Why am I cynical? Because I pay attention and read between the lines.

“Despite Mandalay Bay shooter Stephen Paddock’s history of high-stakes gambling, he had no known gambling debts, “

I wish I could remember the number of times people stated he had yuge gambling debts! Over and over people kept repeating that meme with NO evidence. They just ASSumed it.

I guess they were all from the school of “if you tell a lie often enough.....”

I thought the same thing. Surely someone knows the exact number of deaths.

Paddock’s girlfriend, Marilou Danley, told investigators in Los Angeles she had no concerns about his mental health.

Other than the guns, ammo and 50+ dead people, she has no concerns about his mental health. Right. This b1tch is screwed up in the head.

Why would they waste time evacuating rooms when he was shooting up all those ppl?

Because they KNEW they were going in with guns blazing and wanted to minimize any collateral damage.

:: -Control, we just spoke to security at Mandalay Bay and they say they have shots fired on 29 and 32 levels” ::

Any “official reason” for this radio-chatter regarding Floor 29 also? Does the “independent resort owned by the Saudis’” portion start at 30?

Um.. wrong reply.. I haven’t looked at the autopsy. Coroners are elected officials, but other than assisting on a few lightweight autopsies, I am def not a coroner. I know a couple of good ones tho.

The hotel is not owned by the saudis. Rather by a very astute businessman who comes from Saudi Arabia.

“No second shooter” BULLSHIRT! LIAR! Forensic PROOF, MANY eye/ear witnesses say otherwise.

There were MULTIPLE shooters! PERIOD! Anyone with a brain, who does just a little reading/viewing, can KNOW this.

OMG, it’s like we are living in the Soviet Union during the cold war.

The government is corrupt, the media is corrupt.

We are living in 1984, The Matrix, The Truman Show, Storybrooke, Bizarro World, an alternate universe. NOTHING is the way it seems.

It’s as if the powers that be don’t think we “can handle the truth” and many of us are like Cypher (in The Matrix) and would rather not know the truth, even after seeing it.

I, for one, REFUSE to capitulate. I will continue to use my brain and logic to lead me to the TRUTH, whatever it be, because I CAN handle the truth.

DEMOCRATS MURDER REPUBLICANS

Why? The many 23 extra guns were show guns so the deep state could ban many gun types.

The Democrat Party & Islamic allies massacred 500 Republicans & Christians. Wake up! Buy guns & ammo.

They are coming for you.
