Not what I would call a “reliable” witness of the events. Just another guy suffering from “shell Shock”
Well there ya go. Simply the facts. So, how many fortune tellers are there in Vegas? Why haven’t the LEO folks contacted them yet? I heard they’re putting up bill boards asking for anyone with any info on this POS to call it in. I bet a lot of us wish we were that invisible to Big Bro.
me too
Their stories will be discounted and their character impugned, reminiscent of 1963, when onlookers waiting in the Grassy Knoll turned and ran towards where they heard the shots coming from.
This fellow could see the bullets in flight?
Golly, I wish my eyes were still that good. /s

Ping to one of the wounded guys saying the incoming was coming not only down at an angle, but straight across.
Probably ricochets.
So here’s the thing; absent a tracer round, it’s just really, really hard to see supersonic bullets in flight, even in daylight. Knowing what angle they’re at at night, sorry, no.
a) Wouldn't it cause a LOT of noise inside the hotel to break out these windows BEFORE the shooting started?
b) Wouldn't it be extremely difficult for ONE PERSON to break out BOTH windows BEFORE the shooting started?
c) Wouldn't someone else in a nearby room report this noise for security to respond to before the shooting started?
d) Wouldn't it take a FEW MINUTES for ONE PERSON to break out these windows BEFORE the shooting started?
e) Wouldn't the person breaking out these windows risk cutting themselves during this process? I see no cuts or scrapes on Paddock's arm in the crime scene photo.
f) Can ONE person do this quickly, with ONE window being ALMOST COMPLETELY SMASHED OUT?
The easy way to determine that is to look at any walls or vertical surfaces in the area in and around the "beaten zone." If there are bullet impacts or marks on walls or other vertical surfaces that are not ricochets, maybe there were rounds coming from different direction and elevation to support the multiple shooter theory. Especially if they are on surfaces that could not be in the LOS/LOF of Paddock's position.
Another thing to look for would be stray casings in locations that were nowhere near Paddock's position.
Were there any other windows in the hotel broken from the inside outward? I've only seen the photos of the two in rooms that Paddock had secured.
Paddock seems to be the only shooter at this point. But my guess is he had help/support from others even if he was ultimately the only one to carry it out. I just hope we get the whole truth one day.
Just watched the Fox interview with Steve Wynn and he said no one had seen Paddock or Danley consume any alcohol but the alleged hairdresser said when Paddock came in for a haircut he always reeked of alcohol.
Somebody shooting from ground level would be much more easily heard and seen.
Would the folks on the ground have heard the window breaking or even the initial shooting over the music?
Where are the spent cartridges? Ballistics for this will take months if not years...
As you are running away, you cannot know with accuracy the direction of the bullets. Even facing the fire.
Guy doesn’t know about ricochets.
If there were mutiple shooters, the authorities know, so now you are in conspiracy land.
They have the guns from the room. If there are bullets in the concrete or laying around that couldn’t be fired or wasn’t fired from those guns, then there was a second shooter or more. The cops will be searching grass areas with metal detectors for bullets. They will search the concrete. They will save bullets from bodies.
They will know.
Sort of like the TWA Flight 800 where many, many witnesses reported seeing the plane hit by a missile. The august government authorities just neglected to officially bless all those witnesses with acknowledgment of what they saw. Didn’t fit story they were writing.
In Vegas, all these victims (and police reports on audio) were merely confused during the fog of war.
Remember, the FBI spokesman came out a few hours after the shooting and declared that the killer was not associated with international terrorism. The FBI knew nothing at all about the guy, except that.
The fog of war.
Let’s see if the Bullets removed from the Victims match the Calibers of the Rifles the Murderous SOB used before we get into a Grassy Knoll discussion.
Active shooter at the Tropicana, according to the vid...This or another location could account for the muzzle blast ‘reflection’ on the 4th floor window of the Mandalay Hotel...
