Saw a report that those meds could potentially cause violent behavior in some people.

Is this chick the type of person to just throw crap at the wall and see what sticks?

Starting to look like it.

If a Muslim was planning a terrorist attack, they would not go down to warn people it was about to happen.

Well.....what if she was there to scope it out before....and in the heat of the moment (there was some verbal altercation reported with her)....she just blurts that out.

Doesn't mean she was there to warn people, plus she probably knew she would not be taken seriously.

That said.....if she was involved...no way she sticks around after.

I think his brother said something about his leg hurting or something.. in reference to his opinion that he wouldn't have carried his bags to his room.

His brother's long driveway chats with media are interesting.

Doesn't seem like the post of someone making something up...

To think that I was alone for minutes with the Mandalay Bay assassin! Makes me nervous to know that I was his waiter in the same suite where it happened. You don't know who you're working with in this job.

Many places you can also get your own luggage cart and do it yourself without actually carrying anything.

I saw his brother estimated his real estate deals netted him 2,000,000 (brother was partner, he would know), yet he talks about the how rich his brother made him and his mom like it's a much higher number. He also talks about his brother being a high roller.. I'm sorry but an IRS auditor, mail carrier, and Lockheed internal auditor + 2,000,000 simply doesn't sound sufficient when he owns planes, gambles a reported 5 figures a day, and has like 4 houses. That's where I'm still stuck in all this. Where is the money coming from? Could be an innocent source, but I don't buy the current set of facts.

Seems strange to me that we still have not seen any footage of him at the hotel. Hundreds, maybe thousands of cameras in and around that hotel, yet nothing showing him anywhere, much less lugging massive amounts of luggage. Would have thought they'd release some of that by now.

I'd venture 1/3 or more of American adults on benzos. Wouldn't read much into valium.

Some people who gamble 5 figures a day aren't always losing.

I bet that number is higher for affluent adults, too.

Would casinos continue to comp for 20 years if he was making a lot of money? Genuine question.

In the movies, they always try to entice the big winners to stay even longer. But in all honesty, I think the end game is to keep them playing, whether they are winning or not.

Yes. They know they will get it back. Playing video poker no matter how good you think you are will bleed you in the long run.

Agree. In water supply.

That's what I thought.. 20 years IS the long run. I highly doubt casino winnings are a substantial portion of his net worth, so it had to come from somewhere.

Con man. Learned the trade from his dad. Would be easy to verify -- just review his tax returns. If he made millions and there is no tax trail, then he is a con man.... or a bank robber.

Paddock was prescribed 10mg Valium in June.

http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/stephen-paddock-prescribed-anti-anxiety-meds-june-report-article-1.3540386

It says he was prescribed 50 pills. Not pill popper quantities, or Xanax, or Klonopin, but this may establish at least some prior psychological issues.

---

Not necessarily, my daughter was prescribed Valium for pain control after a surgery. I've also known people who have used valium for migraines.

Or daddy left him a lot of money from robbing banks.

I tend to agree

Me too. It does show reservation for 2 guests. That doesn't prove there were 2 people checked in but surely Casino cameras capable of detecting micro-gestures of gamblers can show any and all interactions this guy had while on premises.

---

This in spades! My wife and I are frequent travelers to Vegas and we have rewards memberships at several hotels. Just 4 months ago my wife went to Vegas alone for a meeting and used my rewards card at check-in at the hotel she wanted to stay. Sure enough our bill said 2 guests, even though there was only one. The same is true for the room service tickets. The receptionist assumed it was 2 guests. Using another person's card is to bump up points.

When this story broke they said that the shooter used his GF's platinum card. Hence the two guests. Tony the room service guy at Mandalay Bay didn't count the number of people in that room. Evidently he checked in on the 25th with her card comped. It is likely he had to use his card on the 28th for the expansion of the suite. The GF's card probably didn't have enough points for the expansion, so it shows him checking in on the 28th.

Loomer is tweeting about something she has no clue about.

Now that we know he was using psychotropic drugs things start to make a little more sense.

Edit again to add: Now that we know he was interest in another outdoor even 5 months ago but could get a room adjacent makes it more clear his intentions.

i would think that high rollers that are winning are good for business. 1) they will spend winnings in casino, so they get some back 2) seeing someone else rake it in entices other people to bet big.

$85 for that meal?? That's a crime against humanity.

Do you get charged a double room rate, or is there a set price?

I think the room rate is the same but you get charged additional resort fees.
