I’ve been meaning to post some of the weird stuff from the Las Vegas massacre. I don’t have a theory really but there are so many unanswered questions.
2
From the LVMPD radio: 10:09- a minute after shooting starts, a shooter is reported inside the fairground. 10:16- Paddock shoots himself. 10:22- “shots fired at 29th and 32nd.” 10:27- it’s confirmed there at least two shooters with fully automatic weapons.”
3
11:03- possible suspect at industrial and circus circus. 11:05- shots fired inside New York New York at the front desk. 11:15- active shooter at Tropicana. 11:20- Paddock’s hotel door at the mandala bay is breached. 11:20- shots fired at Aria.
4
11:27- shots fired at Caesar’s and Bellagio and a man with a gun at Terrace. Apparently no active shooter is found at any of these locations. So was it mass panic? Who knows, but let’s look at what witnesses at the fairgrounds said.
5
LVMPD detective Stephen Balonek heard the gunfire sound changing and believed it was multiple shooters. Witnesses reported that the shooting was coming from a drone, or they heard helicopters. One witness saw a shooter 15-20 floors up at MB, shots timed with flashes.
6
Multiple witnesses saw a strobe light in the middle of the mandalay bay closer to the bottom. Kymberley Suchomel specifically said multiple shooters were chasing concert goers inside the fairgrounds. Danny Contreras reported same.
7
The security camera on the roof of the MB, facing the fairgrounds, was found to be broken.
8
11:15- a witness sees 5 “Persian guys” at the Excalibur in a single file line walking. The last one is carrying an assault rifle. Chaos erupts at the Hooters Casino with people running out shouting that a shooter is inside.
9
So about Paddock himself. He doesn’t really seem out of the ordinary until about a year before the shooting when according to girlfriend Marilou Darnley he becomes distant and anxious. He’s germaphobic and starts buying guns.
10
Over the years he has become wealthy by buying and selling real estate and now lives on his gambling income. He is a mid level high roller in good standing at the casinos in Vegas with a $100,000 credit limit at MGM properties, owner of Mandalay Bay and Bellagio.
11
He had three cell phones which were in the hotel room. The first two had 1837 and 1615 contacts. The third was a prepaid phone. In 2017 his bank account declined from $2,100,000 to $530,000, with most expenses going to casinos, credit card debt and firearms.
12
Paddock was a fan of Trump according to Danley, and had recently developed more extreme right wing views. Every firearm except one found in the room had been bought in the last year of his life.
13
From May to September he is searching online for events with high attendance, planning when-where hell do the shooting. In September he stays at the MB with Danley and spends a lot of time looking out the window at Las Vegas village.
14
At an undisclosed date an Uber driver gives Paddock and a woman a drive from the Las Vegas airport. On the 29th MB valet attendant Daniel Cruz sees Paddock drunk with an Asian woman (Danley is in the Philippines).
15
Also on the 29th Paddock is seen with a woman who looks like Danley at the Noodle Shop in the MB.
16
I’m interested in what happened to Paddock psychologically in that final year, and why. And does his transformation have anything to do with the anomalies of the event? All the reports of multiple shooters and active shooters at practically every casino on the strip?
17
On the day of the massacre Paddock photobombs a woman taking a selfie at a Taco Bell and acts like a creep. He is apparently with a woman

The FBI seems to have decided that Paddock was emailing himself about guns from two different addresses with similar names in July 2017, but it's still possible that that another person was monitoring that other account reviewjournal.com/crime/shooting…
19
Given that the accounts were "CentralPark1" and "CentralPark4804" this would indicate that the second person was quite closely linked to Paddock, and possibly that they had set up those accounts just for the purpose of discussing AR rifles

And to add to the confusion, a network of former senior-level intelligence officials (spurred on by Alex Jones) started spreading the theory that ISIS and Antifa were behind the attack politico.com/magazine/story…
21
Some of this comes from Brian Hodge's social media posts during the event. He was staying at the Mandalay Bay that night imgur.com/gallery/8nW3o
22
Jason Aldean’s lawyer died a couple weeks after the event, which of course led to wild speculation musicrow.com/2017/10/nashvi…

I have found this exact article, word for word on like ten rando blogs. No idea where this story originated, maybe Info Wars
