Casino company seems to be in touch with missing security guard Jesus Campos
The Los Angeles Times ^ | 17 Oct 2017 | Matt Pearce

The company that owns the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino implied Tuesday that it was in touch with wounded security guard Jesus Campos, who seemingly vanished last week as questions mounted over the Las Vegas casino’s response to the Oct. 1 mass shooting.

MGM Resorts International issued a statement on Campos’ behalf Tuesday after the Los Angeles Times submitted a request to interview the Mandalay Bay security guard. Campos was shot in the leg by gunman Stephen Paddock inside the hotel shortly before Paddock began shooting at a concert across the street.

“Jesus Campos wants to tell his story at a time and place of his choosing,” spokeswoman Debra DeShong said in a written statement. “He’s asked that everyone respect his request for privacy. We could not be more proud of Jesus.”

Campos mysteriously left a Las Vegas hotel room last Thursday where he was preparing for televised interviews on the Sean Hannity show on Fox, as well as news shows on CNN, CBS, ABC and NBC. No interviews took place.

Is the Mandalay Bay posted no guns? As I understand our laws here in Nevada I can just about take as many guns as I want, wherever I want. Especially if they are in luggage or cases. Not banks, not court houses, not schools nor anywhere posted no guns. I might be wrong.

Indeed. And his “injuries “ don’t give him a pass.......which, if true, that will give the MSM their next talking points.

I would guess the first thing the police did was kick the gun away from the body, then check to see if he was dead. I’m not a cop and that’s what I would do.

That’s not a statement saying I believe he killed himself, just an explanation of why the gun was where it was.

None of the Las Vegas casinos on the strip allow guns.

I have written this several times previously.

Billions of dollars in lawsuits on the horizon for the Hotel. A mis-stated word by Jesus could easily mean tens of millions lost for the owners.

Better he keep his mouth shut until discovery.

Jesus, how would you like a couple of paid years off, with a nice bonus?

Simple, logical, easy.

Requires nothing not already accounted for.

That’s crazy. Some people will believe the most ludicrous things.

It was of course the alien implants in his head that did it in cahoots with the grays and reps.

Cheez.

What does he mean respect his privacy? Campos disappeared on day one and no one had chance to invade his "Privacy".
