MGM Resorts disputes Las Vegas police timeline of mass shooting
Las Vegas Review Journal ^ | October 10th, 2017 | Rachel Crosby

MGM Resorts International on Tuesday disputed Clark County Sheriff Joe Lombardo’s revised timeline of the Oct. 1 mass shooting on the Strip.

But during an extensive Tuesday interview with the Las Vegas Review-Journal, the sheriff stood by the revised timeline, then clarified it “could change even more.”

“This remains an ongoing investigation with a lot of moving parts,” MGM Resorts spokeswoman Debra DeShong said in the statement, released late Tuesday. “As evidenced by law enforcement briefings over the past week, many facts are still unverified and continue to change as events are under review. We cannot be certain about the most recent timeline that has been communicated publically, (sic) and we believe what is currently being expressed may not be accurate.”

Lombardo revised the timeline during a news conference Monday. He said police had learned that security guard Jesus Campos was shot in the hallway before at least 58 people at the Route 91 Harvest festival were killed and nearly 500 were injured. Police previously said Campos was shot after the attack on the concert crowd.

The previous version of this story at 7:30 last night said MGM was sticking with the ORIGINAL timeline where Campos was shot after the crowd.

The only thing I know for sure is the same thing everyone else knows for sure:

Law Enforcement is lying to us. Again.

Apparently the Keystone Cops are investigating the Vegas shooter?

If any proof of the guard being shot first is real, a nasty can of worms is opened up. Unimaginable

Perhaps The security guard is in on the plot.
Hard to believe Paddock only hit him one time and in the leg with as much weaponry as he had. What kind of uniforms do security guards wear?
Maybe a much larger attack was planned and Paddock just went for it.
Or maybe the security guard shot Paddock, then was the shooter himself.

At least half the time of the police news conferences were spent in lavish self-praise of the response of law enforcement.

There you go, that's some good thinking. Best theory I've heard in a while. I'll go with that until it's proved wrong. I'm halfway serious you know.

The timeline of events should be one of the easier parts of the investigation to piece together. If they’re scrambling on this the are either extremely inept, or some serious money is trying to limit their apparent liability.

In the narrow matter of when the guard was shot, the changing of the timeline as announced by the police does not mean that the police were lying regarding the original time of the shooting of the guard.

As yet, I'm not sure who gave the information on when the guard was shot to the police. Initially though, in a fluid and confused situation, that's what the police went with. So who would be hurt by the change of the information? The police don't look good for their response time, so changing the information to an earlier time doesn't make them look any better, yet they are still standing by the change. The police have had time now to review tapes and interview the guard. On the other hand, changing the timeline does not make the resort look too good either. But THEY ARE objecting to the different timeline! Do THEY sense some legal liability here? Are THEY hiding something?

They need to waterboard his weird brother :) Really, how do we know he isn’t going to do something similar? They need to be going over that guy’s history with a fine toothed comb.

The murderer sent his GF away to a safe place, sent her at least $100000. Does anyone believe he didn’t give even more to his mother and brother?

Not for a moment do I believe he went from just some guy.... to a mass murderer without some carnage in the middle....

I consider the possibility that the police were given incorrect information in the beginning of the investigation. Subsequent information lead the police to discover that the information was wrong, and they went public with it. A case of police covering up something would valid if the police DID NOT go public with their disagreement with the timeline.
