Now, more than a week later, the story completely changes. Now, the security guard was shot 17 minutes or so earlier than they said before.
Why no televised interview with the security guard, more than a week has passed?
This does change the timeline bunches.
As to why no interview, maybe he doesn’t want the spotlight. Not everybody is a fame seeker.
Or, for now the police has asked him not to talk to the media due to the investigation still being active.
Could be a lot of reasons, most of which have no nefarious roots.
Reports a MALE left the hotel room right before shooting started
Security guard shot first..?
BATF said to have suspected guard as a suspect
Hmm....
so was SWAT headed to the 32nd because of the Campos call to his base or what was going on out the 32nd windows.
Could they suspect him of being an accomplice?
fyi
200 round burst? Where are they getting that? Pretty much only a belt fed can pull off a 200 round burst. 20 maybe?
Hummm...
he might still be in intensive care no word on how bad he was shot.
I remember someone cautioned FR to wait at least four days after an incident before trying to draw any conclusions as to what really happened (beyond the obvious/dead and wounded count. It’s been over a week now and we really don’t know any more as to “what really happened”. That in itself is odd.
“It’s unclear what ultimately led Paddock to stop shooting at the people below.”
Mohammed shot him in the head.
ever remember them saying campos was shot after he started firing. Remember he was shot since he was checking a door ajar alarm.
Sloppy job in communication.
They are frustrated that they have been beaten by this low profile loner.
I mean, LEO think they should have a complete picture of activity, implied thinking of the perp.
They have nothing.
But they should be upfront with the public, and they are not.
It’s like James Comey is still running the show.
Ok… so let me get this straight. According to Lombardo’s statement, Jesus Campo is at the shooter’s door before the shooting started. I’m assuming that this was in response to something else like the glass having been knocked out. This would seem to suggest that some time (say 5 to 10 minutes) had elapsed between the knockout of the window(s) and when Campo gets to the floor. He gets shot (supposedly when he seen on the remote monitoring system) but stays on the floor informing his security dept. of what happened and that he had been shot..... no doubt he had a two-way radio on him. Security and perhaps others (but then, perhaps not since shooting hadn’t started yet) inform the police….. Campo is still on the floor when the police arrive but Lomardo says that they didn’t realize that Campo had been shot. It sounds implausible that the security department wouldn’t have told them that so perhaps the police were responding to other information. Regardless, in between when he informs his security department he has been shot and when the police arrive, he knocks on the other doors on the floor and has all the other guests evacuate. Does that make sense? How long after Campo got shot did the shooting start out the window? One assumes that it happened almost immediately. And Campo is evacuating guests with all that shooting going on after he had been shot? That doesn’t sound plausible…. How long after his security department called the police were they actually on the floor? This new information almost makes it seem like the police were there on a timeline that was also much less than previously indicated….
One other question that I haven’t seen answered yet. How did the shooter get into the Aussie’s room next door?

The fog of war.
Chief Lombardo came out this eve stating big time line changes. More so in the sequence rather than the seconds.
Something isn’t right and he knows it.
Issue is....this is NOt a small change in the time-line of this event.
QUOTE: “...200-round burst through the door, hitting him in the leg.”
The security guard would be hamburger.
Realistically...
Did braking out the window bring the security guard? Recognizing the outer glass ‘curtain wall’ was breaken...yes that’s the proper term...the glass phasade is hung on the building, it’s called a curtain wall. (I’m a Structural Engineer.). Floors above and below may well have heard the smashing glass.
While everyone is focused on the security guard and the changing timeline, what about the “maintenance man” mentioned in passing that the security guard encountered on the 32nd floor after he got shot? Who is he? For all we know, he was the one that shot Campos from inside the room, shot Paddock to look like a suicide, and then went on the concert shooting spree, before getting out another way that only a “maintenance man” (or someone with unlimited access to all rooms and areas with a “maintenance man” passcard) could. He magically appears on the 32nd Floor and is told to leave by the security guard. With nobody alive in the suite, nothing happens until the police blow the door an hour+ later.
