Thanks, Cordelia. Sorry, I had missed it.

Yeah, a guy allegedly planning a massacre calls hotel security twice, less than 24 hours beforehand, with not a care in the world except the intolerable racket coming up through his floorboards. No worries about hotel security spotting his massive arsenal or foiling his dastardly plot.

Stephen Paddock is innocent.

A Nevada home the Las Vegas shooter used as a stash house for handguns, shotguns and a “plethora of ammunition” was burglarized last weekend in a stunning security breach, and comes as federal and state authorities say they're still sweeping the scene for clues.

At least one vandal broke in to Stephen Paddock’s Reno-area home through the building's front door, though detectives still were unsure if multiple suspects were involved, Officer Tim Broadway of the Reno Police Department told the Reno Gazette-Journal Tuesday.

Broadway said police were not immediately aware of anything taken or any damage done to the retirement community home. The FBI was notified of the breach.

Lombardo told the media Monday that FBI and behavioral analysis agents were actively looking at the Reno home and Paddock’s other properties as the search continued for a motive behind the attack, which was the deadliest shooting in modern U.S. history.

"Is the FBI along with LVMPD revisiting the personal property of the suspect? Yes, that is accurate along with the behavioral analysis detectives,” Lombardo said Monday, according to the Reno Gazette-Journal. “They are also present and maybe we can discern additional evidence as a result of that revisit.”

“We may never know,” Lombardo said of the shooter's motive. “All those things that you would expect to find, we have not found.”

The sheriff said an examination of Paddock’s brain, conducted as part of the autopsy, revealed nothing unusual.

On the night before Stephen Paddock carried out the worst mass shooting in modern U.S. history, he twice called security at the Las Vegas hotel where he was staying to complain about loud music, a law enforcement source told CBS News.

The noise was coming from the floor below his suite on the 32nd floor of the Mandalay Bay hotel casino on the Las Vegas Strip, CBS News senior investigative producer Pat Milton reports.

Albert Garzon of San Diego told The New York Times that security guards asked him to turn down the country music playing in his suite on the 31st floor at around 1:30 a.m. Sunday, a little over 20 hours before the rampage on a country music festival. When different security guards paid Garzon another visit about his music a half-hour later, he turned it off.

A staffer at the hotel also reported that Paddock acted abruptly with them over some other issue, Milton reports.

Video: Maintenance man fills in as understudy for missing Jesus Campos

A building engineer at the Las Vegas hotel where Stephen Paddock was holed up during his massacre last week described being pinned down in a hallway after the gunman opened fire on him from behind the door of his hotel suite shooting perch.

Stephen Schuck was one of the first people to encounter Paddock when he went to check out a faulty fire exit door on the 32nd floor of the Mandalay Bay and Casino on Oct. 1, according to a new timeline of events.

So I searched google for the newly minted Maintenance Man Stephen Schuck and somehow caught somebody in the act of scrubbing away his internet profiles.

As we can see here, there used to be three entries for Stephen Schuck in Nevada, including one in Las Vegas:

https://archive.is/XTSxI

The same search strong that yielded those results an hour ago: https://www.google.com/search?rlz=1C1CH ... 4US594&q=("Steve+Schuck"+OR+"Stephen+Schuck")+(Nevada+OR+NV)+"Las+Vegas"&oq=("Steve+Schuck"+OR+"Stephen+Schuck")+(Nevada+OR+NV)+"Las+Vegas"

I decided to search google for Stepen Schuck in Nevada. Here was my search string: https://www.google.com/search?rlz=1C1CH ... a+OR+NV%29

Here was the search page returned:

I clicked on the second entry, which was Spokeo. It showed three profiles for Stephen Schuck, one old guy, one 25-year-old in Reno and one 23-year-old in Las Vegas. Unfortunately, I did not screen cap that page. I clicked on the Las Vegas entry at this url: https://www.spokeo.com/Stephen-Schuck/N ... 9013202269

I was greeted by this page:

Then when I hit the back button to my go back to the Spokeo page that had contained three entries one second before, it now contained just two entries.

No more Stephen Schuck, 23, in Las Vegas, Nevada, right before my very eyes! What a coincidence!

I'd suggest a different countryside.


Campos being Spanish for countryside... maybe a Spanish countryside.

It's also a commonly-used example of a false friend, not that I'm insinuating anything by that.


My question is whether Jesus will ever be resurrected as a person of interest in this investigation. It's already been more than 3 days since anyone saw him.

Hotel worker warned of shooter before Las Vegas massacre

LAS VEGAS (AP) - A maintenance worker said Wednesday he told hotel dispatchers to call police and report a gunman had opened fire with a rifle inside Mandalay Bay before the shooter began firing from his high-rise suite into a crowd at a nearby musical performance.

The revised timeline has renewed questions about whether better communication might have allowed police to respond more quickly and take out the gunman before he committed the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history.

Worker Stephen Schuck told NBC News that he was checking out a report of a jammed fire door on the 32nd floor of Mandalay Bay when he heard gunshots and a hotel security guard, who had been shot in the leg, peaked out from an alcove and told him to take cover.

“As soon as I started to go to a door to my left the rounds started coming down the hallway,” Schuck said. “I could feel them pass right behind my head.

“It was kind of relentless so I called over the radio what was going on,” he said. “As soon as the shooting stopped we made our way down the hallway and took cover again and then the shooting started again.”

Police said Monday they believe gunman Stephen Paddock shot a hotel security guard through the door of his suite six minutes before he unleashed a barrage of bullets into the crowd of concert-goers, killing 58 people and injuring hundreds more.

The injured guard used his radio and possibly a hallway phone to call for help.

I was wondering earlier whether the restriction of information in and of itself might not be a tactic of social control: a deliberate choice is being made to react to a traumatic event in the least helpful and informative way possible. What results? A society that goes to loons and bullshit artists for advice or wisdom, divided along ever-finer ideological splits,suspicious of itself and glassily breakable.


Exactly, or at least something quite like it. This OP, like many before it distinguish between those that accept the presented narrative and those that do not. Among those that do not accept, it ranges from normal rational people on to some rather disreputable types. The OP tries to discredit reputable people with this association. The OP itself will present hysterical counter-narratives to promote emotion ahead of substance, reliably burning people out till the next narrative setting events.

Meanwhile some fairly childish people are acting like they are running the US government.
All these things will continue as long as coercion remains a central element of our mentality.

For those of us who are uninitiated, what is the relevance of focusing on this hand gesture? I mean, other than the possibilities of a random nervous gesture, worshiping the devil or being a big fan of Slayer?

FYI video referenced in screenshot above is "unavailable" on youtube as of this writing, which makes it difficult to check the credibility of the info in the screenshot.
