Eric Paddock of Orlando, Florida, said he had "no idea" why his 64-year-old brother committed the shooting.

"Mars just fell into the Earth," he said. "We're completely dumbfounded."

Idaho shooting suspect’s ‘hypersexual’ Martian manifesto is a window into an unraveling mind
By Michael E. Miller March 9, 2016

A Secret Service agent spotted Odom tossing something over the fence and approached him. When the agent ran his name through a law enforcement database, a red flag popped up: an arrest warrant issued just two days earlier on the other side of the country. The charge: attempted murder. Arriving seemingly out of nowhere, Odom was arrested at the White House, bringing a sudden end to a two-day hunt for the Marine veteran.

---

quote:

---

When Secret Service agents unwittingly stopped Odom, the 30-year-old was the only suspect in the shooting of an Evangelical pastor in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, on Sunday. According to authorities, Odom had ambushed Tim Remington in his church parking lot, shooting the popular pastor in the head and back before he vanished. Remington, who survived the point-blank shooting in what one church member called a “miracle,” had appeared a day earlier with Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tex.) at an event hosted by his presidential campaign. That led to speculation that the shooting was politically motivated.

But Odom’s manifesto suggests that the shooting, if he did it, was something else entirely: the act of an unraveling mind. The 21-page manifesto, which authorities say Odom sent to his parents as well as several Idaho television stations, is a window into what he was thinking.

---

quote:

---

The manifesto also includes a list of “noteworthy Martians.” On the list are 50 members of Congress — belonging to both parties — as well as roughly three dozen members of the “Israeli leadership,” including “every single Prime Minister since 1948.”

“This is by no means an all-inclusive list,” Odom wrote. “Martians are ubiquitous. They exist at every level of society in every nation. Some have blue collar jobs, while other occupy positions of power. They control our government, our military, and Corporate America as well. They keep track of every ‘wild’ human on the planet and manage us like animals in a zoo. Our ‘freedom’ is a carefully crafted illusion.”

Things are not what they appear to be. The world is ruled by [an] ancient civilization from Mars. Pastor Tim was one of them, and he was the reason my life was ruined,” Odom wrote in a Facebook post, changing his profile photo to a picture of an alien. “I will be sharing my story with as many people as possible. I don’t have time right now, they are chasing me.

“I shot Pastor Tim 12 times,” he said. “There is no way any human could have survived that event. Anyway, I have sent my story to all the major news organizations. I have no time, I have to go.”

He's always been close to his dad, and the attack Sunday that left him fighting for his life only solidified the important role Tim plays in Jeremiah's life.

"He has always known his path, you know, he knows what God wants him to do," Remington said. Jeremiah says it's that mindset that spared his dad's life Sunday.

"That bullet that was in his brain that went through both plates and then stopped on the lining of his brain, the guardian angel said nope this is where you stop," Jeremiah said.

Call it a miracle or the grace of God, those closest to Pastor Tim believe simply it just wasn't his time to go.

COEUR D'ALENE, Idaho - Kyle Odom is an honorably discharged Marine, a Dean's List graduate from the University of Idaho and a man driven to kill a Coeur d'Alene pastor based on his belief that his life had been ruined "by an intelligent species of amphibian-humanoid from Mars."

In multiple documents in a thumb drive mailed to KXLY Monday and received Tuesday, Odom laid out his manifesto that a race of ancient Martians, with subterranean bases on Earth and under the surface of the Moon, had subverted all levels of the US and Israeli governments, ranging from top ranking members of the US Senate – including Washington Sen. Patty Murray and US Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell – as well as members of the US House of Representatives and many Israeli lawmakers including "every single Prime Minister since 1948."

In a media briefing Monday in the wake of the shooting of Pastor Tim Remington of the Altar Church in Coeur d'Alene Sunday, in which Odom was named the suspect within hours of the shooting, Coeur d'Alene Police Chief Lee White alluded to the fact that Odom had a history of mental illness, though the depth and breadth of that illness was not known. An honorably discharged Marine who served with the 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing at Camp Pendleton, Calif. for four years, Odom had deployed on a combat tour to Iraq during his tour of duty, but there has been no indication he suffered from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and was honorably discharged in late 2010.

Police Close Las Vegas Shooting Investigation Without Determining Stephen Paddock's Motive

Lombardo said that with the closure of the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department’s 10-month investigation, no one else will be charged in connection with the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history.

Officials have said the attack had no link to international terrorism, but hotel owner MGM Resorts International last month invoked a provision of a federal law enacted after the Sept. 11 terror attacks.

New documents suggest Las Vegas shooter was conspiracy theorist – what we know In the documents, those who encountered gunman Stephen Paddock say he expressed conspiratorial, anti-government beliefs characteristic of the far right
Jason Wilson Jason Wilson

But tantalizingly, people who encountered Paddock before his shooting say that he expressed conspiratorial, anti-government beliefs, which are characteristic of the far right. In a handwritten statement, one woman says she sat near Paddock in a diner just a few days before the shooting, while out with her son. She said she heard him and a companion discussing the 25th anniversary of the Ruby Ridge standoff and the Waco siege. (Each of these incidents became touchstones for a rising anti-government militia movement in the 1990s.)

She says she heard him and his companion saying that courtroom flags with golden fringes are not real flags. The belief that gold-fringed flags are those of a foreign jurisdiction, or “admiralty flags”, is characteristic of so-called “sovereign citizens”, who believe, among other things, that the current US government, and its laws, are illegitimate. “At the time,” her statement says, “I thought, ‘Strange guys’ and wanted to leave.”

Another man, himself currently in jail, says he met Paddock three weeks before the shooting for an abortive firearms transaction, in the carpark of a Bass Pro Shop. The man was selling schematic diagrams for an auto sear, a device that would convert semi-automatic weapons to full automatic fire. Paddock asked him to make the device for him, and the man refused. At this point Paddock launched into a rant about “anti-government stuff … Fema camps”. Paddock said that the evacuation of people by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (Fema) after Hurricane Katrina was a a “dry run for law enforcement and military to start kickin’ down doors and ... confiscating guns”. “Somebody has to wake up the American public and get them to arm themselves,” the man says Paddock told him. “Sometimes sacrifices have to be made.”

So what does this mean for the Paddock investigation? Police are not jumping to any conclusions about Paddock’s motives, and nor should we. But it is striking that there is evidence that he, like so many mass shooters, may have nurtured the ideas of the conspiracy-minded far right. Often such beliefs are viewed as harmless, and increasingly they have been normalized by the success of figures like Alex Jones. But we need to start taking seriously the possibility that they radicalize some people towards violence.
