They may not have been doing that either. The sheriff wasn't clear.

ETA - Although it seems a bit ridiculous to have them set up if they're not on.

You nailed it, he probably had a personality disorder causing him to be socially inept and have few friends, felt like the world was against him, couple that with depression, and he decides to kill himself, but do in a way that will make sure the world knows who he was and puts his name in the history books. It is that simple, there is no complex underlying political or religious motivation, conspiracy, or plot.

Another one posting an image of the shooter with text questioning how he was able to get 400 lbs of guns and ammo up to the room by himself, disable fire alarms and other security measures, and how he managed to remove the 800 lbs of HURRICANE PROOF GLASS windows with no training and no motive.


I just saw this one. People are ridiculous.

What sort of special training does someone need to swing a maul at a window or bring luggage up an elevator?

It also said something about “reigned in aimed firepower.” “Reign” holding royal office. Dumb people are dumb.

FBI saying the list of people being monitored is growing in this investigation, but many of those leads will likely go nowhere.

FBI isn't ready to disclose what information was gathered in the interviews today. The FBI carried our the interviews with the gf (presumably), but the sheriff isn't privy to how those went.

FBI profiler told the sheriff that Paddock doesn't fit any traditional molds in this type of crime. They're still trying to hold numerous interviews with acquaintances to build the profile.

Sheriff explained that "secret life" means he wasn't public, wasn't on social media, etc.

Said the crime was meticulously planned, so it is understandable that his private life was well hidden too.

They probably don't have anything substantial yet. I think they're trying to dig to find something so the public will feel at ease. But... IMO this is what I think

I wonder if he found out he had cancer, and said frick this world and decided to go out in flames. The longer it goes, I am doubting this, though. Can doctors/ hospitals not release that information if they have it?

Maybe, but he said mostly they'll be busts. They're just trying to follow leads that have been given to them through interviews or the general public.

I was a little late too, but I think he was confirming that Paddock had booked, or tried to book, a room there for another festival that was going on several days before this concert




That is correct

It was not a suicide note, but it was a note of some kind.

For good reason, more than likely.
