Reason Five: There are multiple inconsistencies with the firearms that were claimed to have been used, the ballistics of the shots, and the audio of the shooting from that night. In the audio from the incident, it is clear that there is overlapping rates of fire, meaning that more... than one rifle was shooting at the same time. How did Stephen Paddock accomplish this as a lone shooter? Authorities have consistently stated that the shooter used bump stocks. However, the audio does not match the firing rate of a rifle with a bump stock. Moreover, bump stocks are highly unreliable and severely reduce accuracy, making them unlikely choices for any skilled shooter. The ballistics of the shots suggest they were fired from 600-900 yards away, not the 300-500 yards distance from the hotel. This implies the shots likely originated from the airspace between the hotels. The last two notable points are: first, no glass was broken in the hotel until 10:16 p.m., after the initial volleys of shooting had concluded and two additional shots were fired from a pistol. Second, SDS Law has asserted that the U.S. Government has not yet proven that any victim was injured or killed by the weapons recovered from Stephen Paddock's room. None of this is adding up.show more

Event Timeline According to LVMPD and FBI: September 25, 2017: Stephen Paddock checks into the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino. September 29, 2017: Paddock moves into an additional suite, 32-134, connected to his initial room, both overlooking the festival grounds. October 1, 2017: - 9:40 p.m.: The Route 91 Harvest festival begins its closing act with country music star Jason Aldean taking the stage. - 10:05 p.m.: Paddock begins firing into the crowd of approximately 22,000 attendees from his hotel suite. He uses multiple rifles, some equipped with bump stocks to increase their rate of fire. - 10:06 p.m.: Mandalay Bay security guard Jesus Campos is shot in the leg while investigating an open door on the 32nd floor. Despite his injury, Campos manages to alert hotel security about the shooter's location. - 10:12 p.m.: Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department (LVMPD) officers inside the hotel begin ascending to the 32nd floor. - 10:15 p.m.: Paddock ceases firing. In total, he fires more than 1,000 rounds during the attack. - 10:17 p.m.: The first LVMPD officers arrive on the 32nd floor and, with Campos' assistance, identify Paddock's room. - 10:24 p.m.: Additional officers arrive on the 32nd floor and begin clearing nearby rooms to ensure guest safety. - 10:55 p.m.: A specialized SWAT team arrives and prepares to breach Paddock's suite. - 11:20 p.m.: SWAT officers breach the suite and find Paddock deceased from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. We will break down some of the inconsistencies with this timeline in the thread, but as you can gather, something does not add up. For instance, police did not even breach the hotel room until a full hour and fifteen minutes after the shooting began. Why did it take them so long? Now, let's go through step by step my reasons why I think Stephen Paddock was setup for this mass casualty attack.

Reason One: The body found on the scene by police was not Stephen Paddock. You can see clearly in the video that Stephen Paddock had attached earlobes, and the body found at the scene had detached earlobes. Earlobes are unique to each person, making them valuable biometric features for identification purposes. In fact, forensic specialists and criminal investigators consider ear characteristics, including earlobes, as standard features of identity. More on the body found at the scene next.

Reason One Continued: The body was in advanced stages of lividity and rigor mortis when the police breached, which was supposedly an hour after the "shooter" died. Also, the blood pool from the police bodycam footage is missing in the released images of the shooter. How can they explain the body showing signs of advanced lividity, placing time of death some four to six hours before police breached? What happened to the large blood pool noted in the bodycam footage? If you think this is getting fishy, we are just getting started.

Reason One Continued: There were also more discrepancies with the body that was autopsied not matching medical information about Stephen Paddock including (as noted in his FAA physical compared to the autopsy): Wrong height - Stephen was 76" and the autopsied body was 73". Scars - Stephen had medical intervention scars (Lumbro-Sacral Surgery x2, Left Knee Surgery, Appendectomy) that were not present on the autopsied body. Missing teeth - Most of the maxillary teeth were missing from the autopsied body, but by all accounts, Stephen had his (there was no teeth involvement from the gunshot wound, as the bullet entered the roof of the suspect's mouth and lodged in the skull). Fingerprint Identification - There is no official chain of custody for the fingerprints that "confirmed" the body's identity as Stephen Paddock.

Reason Two: The LVMPD stonewalled or outright denied requests for any additional reports, photographs, and even the logs of the evidence taken from the day of the shooting. In the first response, LVMPD states that the suspect is protected by "unwarranted 'invasions' of privacy" so they would not release any more photos as the "interest has been satisfied by the photograph produced in the LVMPD FIT Report. Accordingly, LVMPD denies your request for death images of Mr. Paddock." That's right, that single image of the body is what they are claiming is sufficient proof. The second request and response are discussed next.

Reason Two Continued: The second request is for the evidence logs pertaining to all original high-resolution lossless copies of crime scene and other pictures of the room 32-135 decedent referenced in the LVMPD Criminal Report regarding event 171001-3510. LVMPD responds by saying, "After diligently searching your request it was determined that LVMPD is not in possession of any evidence logs, logs, records of images, lists, graphs, charts, file numbers, indexes, etc. of crime scene photos taken of the decedent or of room 32-135. LVMPD has no records responsive to your request." Which begs the obvious questions: Why the hell don't they have them, and what the hell happened to them?

Reason Three: Both the U.S. DoJ Office of the Inspector General (OIG) and the FBI Internal Affairs Inspection Division denied requests for further investigations into the discrepancies involved in the original investigation. As you can see, the DoJ OIG passed the buck to FBI Internal Affairs, and the FBI outright said it would take no further actions into the matter. Why would they want more scrutiny, right?

Reason Four: The three "tour helicopters" flying around the Las Vegas strip on Oct. 1st, 2017 somehow had their transponders turned off twenty minutes before the shooting began. In the video, clear flashes can be seen coming from the airspace where those helicopters would have been flying. Xander breaks down how these were unlikely to be camera flashes, as camera flashes from that far away would be useless and a better vantage point for photographs would have been the roof. Another great point is made that flashes from a suppressed rifle are indeed brighter than from an unsuppressed rifle in low light conditions as suppressors trap and compress gasses longer, allowing them to mix more efficiently with oxygen inside the suppressor body. Once the gases finally exit the suppressor, they produce a larger or brighter flash compared to an unsuppressed barrel where the gases dissipate more quickly. Subsequent FAA FOIA requests for flight data on these helicopters will be discussed next.

Reason Four Continued: As you can see, FAA FOIA requests were initially denied on the bases of "no records found responsive to your request" so the requestor reiterated that the information in the request is reasonable and should exist. He then widened the net. After months of pushing to different agencies, the request was finally officially shuttered by the Vice President of Mission Support Services in the Air Traffic Organization of the U.S. Department of Transportation. His response was a denial based on the fact that "the information you requested is part of an ongoing Federal Bureau of Investigation criminal law enforcement matter." The denial from the DoT was issued on June 5, 2018, and there has still been no change of status from that denial. Why is the federal government intentionally stonewalling anyone looking into this incident that happened nearly eight years ago? Xander then requested some CCTV footage that would have showed the helicopters in question that night, we will talk about that next.

Reason Four Continued: Las Vegas is one of the most surveilled cities in the entire United States. Xander requested footage from the Interstate CCTV cameras that would have shown the helicopters. Of course, the one camera that would have perfectly captured the airspace between the hotels was offline that night. As if this did not smell bad enough, here is yet more evidence of a coverup.

Reason Six: The attack was predicted on 4chan by an anonymous user, and then, a day after the attack, the motive he predicted was verified by the actual CEO of the Chertoff Group. The 4chan post even had stories about it initially but then was quickly removed from the news cycle and from Wikipedia as well. The video goes on to discuss how the Chertoff Group provides security for the Supreme Court. The Chertoff Group is a "global leader in security and risk management advisory services, founded in 2009 and headquartered in Washington, D.C." While the Chertoff Group only has a reported annual revenue of $8.9 million, its President, Jason Kaufman, is a prominent figure in the security and investment banking industry that has successfully completed more than 100 transactions worth over $8 billion in aggregate deal value. Do with this information what you will, but I would venture some digging is in order.

In Summary: After all of this information, I think we can at least all agree that something is not right with what was reported to us about this devastating event. It is clear that the investigation was kept confidential by higher powers to ensure the populace could not accurately look into the event in any real detail. It is also clear that many things were covered up for some reason. Here is what we do know for sure: The body found at the scene was not Stephen Paddock. The LVMPD, FBI, FAA, and DoJ have all refused to offer any more evidence or information about the event, despite numerous FOIA requests. There were helicopters present in the vicinity at the time of the attack without their transponders on. CCTV footage of the incident is either completely missing or the cameras that could have caught appropriate footage were off or not working. Everything that authorities have told us about the firearms used in the attack is false. So, you tell me what you think really happened, because it is pretty clear to me that we are, once again, being lied to. Question everything. DOL

When this first hit the news cycle I felt it was a psyop. The logistics to get all that firepower up to that floor would never have been able to be done with a lone shooter. The bump stock scenario was purely introduced to elicit a ban. Will they find money from USAID.

Yes, the audio never lined up, and anyone that has ever been to an active training range, or, anyone that has listened to a firefight in the distance (as we listened to in Baghdad nightly) can discern those sounds.

Either someone of interest was killed in a "lone gunman mass shooting" or the goal was pave the road for further gun legislation, just like the majority of mass shootings that seem to occur around certain elections. Interesting that just about all shooters since around 1980 have been on psychotropic meds of some sort, which could render one much more suggestible. How many cases have there been with federal agents found to have been in close proximity to the shooter within days prior to the shooting. The majority of these "mass shootings" stink to high hell.

Again: more than one shooter. Overlapping acoustic and direct witness evidence.

"bump stocks are highly unreliable and severely reduce accuracy, making them unlikely choices for any skilled shooter." 1.Well this is 110% a bold faced lie. They are extremely reliable due to the incredible simple operation. 2. Accuracy is no concern firing into sea of people
