Terror in Las Vegas: Mass shooting at Route91 Harvest music festival

[JEEP]

There's a pair of 20-story hollow columns within 300 yards of the back of the concert stage which have been blocked out of mainstream media photos. The have bottom doors and ladders inside to the top where there are small windows—perfect for snipers. [I recall seeing one of them on someone's phone video, and they are visible on Google Earth, from where he showed a panoramic view in daytime of them. Apparently, they were built to hold a giant ferris wheel for a project named SkyVue, which ran into financial problems.

Not sure who had it first, but this has been on Jim Stone's site:

Mike Adams bullet trajectory analysis, when pegged down to a specific location, matches the abandoned Skyvue towers perfectly.

The skyvue towers are what is left of an abandoned ferris wheel project that started five years ago. They are the supports that were supposed to hold the wheel. For whatever reason it was not deemed econimically viable and they abandoned it. The towers stand 200 feet tall, and have mechanical access doors and an interior stairwell inside of them for providing service access to the ferris wheel hub.

VERY IMPORTANT: Trolls are trolling the towers badly, and I always use troll behavior to guage the validity of a topic. Trolls are doing everything they can to divert the public away from these towers. These towers are so close to the concert that they are considered to be at near point blank range for a basic 5.56 round (not even an updated boosted one.) Their much closer proximity to the concert would explain why the gunfire was so loud. Their position also would explain why people in the videos appear to have had temporary shelter in front of the stage until gunmen opened fire from other angles. Their position also would explain why the performers and people back stage said they first became aware of the shooting when bullets started hitting the roof of the stage.

Trolls are preying on ignorance, hoping people can't get a concert perspective on how the towers were actually positioned, and are then saying the towers were not tall enough to give a shooter a vantage point to see the crowd from behind or above the stage (gee, that sounds familiar, I said right in the beginning the shots probably came from above the stage). Trolls are calling the towers "mounds of dirt", torn down, full of rebar (so no one could shoot from them) and all other manners of lies about them, and I can probably guess why. The answer is obvious, and now trolls are not going to be able to bury these towers because I hunted down a perfect perspective of where they are and posted it here, (above and below) which pretty much means the end of their work on this.

[See pics at his site: _http://82.221.129.208/.zw0.html
Stone said previously that the stage lights that illuminated the crowd kept people from seeing the muzzle fire of the shots that were coming from that direction.]

IMPORTANT: People posted to social media that the police had the entire area around the towers completely sealed off after the shooting. Obviously it would be to make sure all evidence of shooting from the towers was cleaned up perfectly, with no one to witness the cleanup, let alone wander into the area later (which only has a mundane chain link fence surrounding it) and finding proof part of the shooting happened from there.

Obviously since the shooting was a deep state op, all the shooters had to do when they finished is call it miller time and wait while the situation on the ground below cooled off. After that, it was a short walk to an industrial area to the south west of the towers and into the air port for an easy getaway.

Stone also addresses the crisis actors/real victims question:

REAL VICTIMS OF SHOOTING NEVER INTERVIEWED, FAKES SWAPPED IN AT FAKE HOSPITAL

Paul Craig Roberts posted a letter from a military surgeon that specialized in treating gunshot wounds. This surgeon remarked about how the patients in the hospital videos were obviously not shot. The people in the "hospital videos" probably were indeed not shot. But they were most likely never at the concert at all because it was a fake hospital video. Most likely, the people who were actually shot were never interviewed by the press because they would interfere with the official story. What would be worse than having a real witness of the event get on camera and blow it for the FBI?

After finding a totally obscure video that shows it all clearly, I now affirmatively know the shooting was real, and that everything I said about real people being left to die overnight is accurate. I found a perfectly clear video of the shooting in progress, a video that was buried up until this point. I also now affirmatively know that the media never interviewed real victims, they interviewed actors who were complicit in the shooting that would not spill the beans on the official story.

http://<iframe width="1349" height=...iw" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

This video clearly proves the gunfire originated on site, and not from far away. It clearly proves there is blood everywhere, because it did not rain yet the pavement has huge wet areas. It clearly shows an unconcious girl with a huge head wound dripping blood on the pavement as people try to get her to safety. Keep in mind that at night a camera is not going to make blood show red on black pavement. Blood color is so close to black from an actual light absorption perspective that cameras just cant discern the color at night, especially a cell phone.

The doctor that sent the letter to Paul Craig Roberts was probably being honest, and giving an honest reaction to what was obviously actors in a fake hospital video. But what he most likely did not know was that the media was most likely interviewing fake people from a fake hospital location, all the while real victims were never spoken to. They won't be spoken to, because they would spill the beans. The video clearly shows the people know where the gun shots are coming from, and are trying to make a strategic exit without getting shot themselves. If all the people in the hospital videos were cheery and leaving within days, they CLEARLY, CLEARLY were not the people in this video.

THIS VIDEO IS SO TELLING THAT IT WILL NOT COME UP IN SEARCH RESULTS. It is obvious all the hits are from people linking into it that happened to have known about it, I tried searching for it by its exact title and Youtube would absolutely not allow it to show up.

From Intellihub:

LAS VEGAS (INTELLIHUB) — Chief Medical Doctor of the Emergency Department at Vally Hospital Medical Center and longtime Chief Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Doctor Jeffrey Davis admitted on camera that a ‘mass casualty incident disaster drill’ was activated after the massacre in which 58 people were killed.
[...]

Shockingly the doctor’s admission dovetails with an actual Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Integrated Capstone Exercise (ICE) for Hospital Emergency Response Training for Mass Casualty Incidents’ that took place between the dates of October 1-3 as seen below. (Click to enlarge)

Director of External Affairs for the Center for Domestic Preparedness, FEMA, and DHS, Richard Brewer told Intellihub’s Founder and Director Shepard Ambellas in a phone interview that he could not confirm which state the drill was taking place in and ‘terminated’ the call.

Brewer later prepared a statement for Ambellas via email which read:

Shepard: We spoke earlier by phone.

As we discussed, our training is routinely scheduled at least six months in advance. The ‘Hospital Emergency Response Training for Mass Casualty Incidents’ you referenced, and which is currently underway, was likewise scheduled months ago.

Brewer went on to write, “The training is being conducted here at the Center for Domestic Preparedness in Anniston, Ala.”

Could the following video contain footage of an actual drill being conducted in Las Vegas the night of the shooting?

Two US Army Mortuary Affairs units, semi-trucks, were spotted at the venue along with for fully dressed US Army personnel carrying heavy machine guns. The following video shows the two Mortuary Affairs units along with an additional box truck.

I watched the missing video previously and wondered if that was how the presumed victims were made to look actually injured - especially if the real victims keep insisting there were multiple shooters and some were on the ground. One such victim posted her detailed account of what happened on Facebook, but then died of natural causes on Oct. 9. She was adamant that there were multiple shooters:

I looked at Jim Stones site last night. He says here, people in front of the stage, where shielded until shooters at other locations began firing. I've been wondering if there where several locations around the perimeter of the concert where shooters where located. Maybe there weren't any shooters actually inside the area as so many said. The loudness of the shots would be explained by the closeness of the shooters plus the panic of the crowd didn't allow for an accurate assessment. Multiple shooters closer, outside the event could explain their impression gunmen where actually inside the concert area.

What a very disturbing video, poor girl.

I'd like to go back to the symbolism involved here briefly. Mat Delooze, gifted in my opinion ,with identifying obscure symbolism, has written a lot in the past about the giant Ferris wheels that have been erected around the world. He sees them as representing the Sun god. Within the construction, the support, is seen a triangular, pyramid shape and combined with the wheel an all seeing eye. Here we have the twin towers again, which would have been the support for the all seeing eye, sun god, not visible in this case. In mentioning the symbolic lay out of the scene earlier, the planned Ferris wheel is located on the right side of the pyramid, in front of the Mandalay Bay which because of its golden color I called the Sun Temple.

Just sharing my thoughts and not going off into fantasy land.

Funeral homes work to get Las Vegas shooting victims back home
Las Vegas Review-Journal October 13, 2017 - 12:09 pm

Snips:

Most of the 58 people whose lives were claimed when a gunman opened fire into a crowd of thousands at a country music festival last week were from outside of the Las Vegas valley.

But before their bodies could be laid to rest in their hometowns, their families had to find a way to get them there.

“It’s not something people think about, but in reality, people pass away and they need to go home,” said Frank Kaiser, president and co-founder of the Indiana-based Eagle’s Wings Air.

Kaiser’s company announced last week that after being contacted by the cargo divisions for American, Delta, Southwest and United airlines, it was coordinating efforts to waive all transportation charges for victims of the shooting at the Route 91 Harvest Festival.

Once the local funeral home has a signed death certificate from the coroner’s office, it can coordinate with the receiving funeral home and schedule a flight with the airline, said Kevin Ferm, a managing partner at Bunkers Mortuary in Las Vegas.

Las Vegas hosts more than 40 million visitors a year, and the valley’s population is packed with transplants. Inevitably, people from out of state die while they’re here and their bodies or cremated remains need to be sent home

“You’ve don’t know it, but you’ve probably been on 10 different flights where the body of someone’s loved one was being flown,” said Jim Olson, owner and funeral director of Olson Funeral Home and Cremation Service in Sheboygan, Wisconsin.

Transporting a body abroad usually costs at least $1,000, Kaiser said. Crossing international borders also means much more documentation and coordinating with a consulate, Ferm said.

A Fort Wayne company offers to transport Vegas victims for free Video (02:10)
Updated: October 5, 2017, 5:24 pm

FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WANE) – A Fort Wayne Company is working with the families of victims killed in the Las Vegas massacre. Eagle’s Wings Air (EWA) is waiving the cost to transport the remains of victims home as a result of the tragedy.

Nearly 60 people are dead and 500 were wounded after a man opened fire from the 32nd floor of the Mandalay Bay Hotel and Casino. According to police the gunman, who has been identified as Stephen Paddock, killed himself in his hotel room.

EWA is the only business in the United States that works with funeral homes and major air carriers to ensure the safe and timely transport of human remains.

The company has been working closely with the major airlines since Monday morning to arrange the transportation of victims’ bodies back home to loved ones for burial and closure.

Frank Kaiser, President of EWA, said it would typically cost at least $500 to transport a body domestically and at least $1,000 internationally.

Kaiser, who worked in the airline industry for 20 years, started the company with David McComb, who is the former owner and operator of D.O. McComb and Sons Funeral Homes. The company has transported more than 100,000 human remains since 2007.

This is not the first time EWA has partnered with airlines in a tragic situation. The company offered to remove the Boston Bomber from the United States at no cost to the taxpayers of Boston. They also offered assistance for the victims of the Sandy Hook Massacre in Connecticut in 2012 and the Pulse Night Club Shooting in Orlando in 2016.

The last time Cameron Robinson was at work, he nearly skipped out of the office he was so thrilled.

It was Thursday evening at Las Vegas City Hall, and Robinson’s four-day weekend promised time with his boyfriend, Bobby Eardley, who was Vegas-bound from their home in Utah.

The pair had a room booked at the Luxor, an easy walk away from the Route 91 Harvest Festival grounds.

Robinson’s boss of nearly four years, City Attorney Brad Jerbic, was ribbing Robinson about his love of country music.

A good summary below. Some important questions on the FBI guy in charge now with the name "Aaron Rouse" (with quite a pas history, as Joe explained in the last SOTT radio show) are in there and questions about the statements of the Police/FBI and how they are contradicting themselves and the changing timelines:

SOTT latest Radioshow on the shooting is also worth listening too. Learned quite a number of interesting things I didn't know about; like the history of Aaron Rouse and how shots sound like when they fly over you and how that can explain why the cellphone cameras recorded different pitsch highs and sounds. Another interesting question Joe brings up are the holes in the door to Paddocks room and if it is even plausible that the security guard was shot in the foot through that door, depending on how the door was originally at place before being blown away.

Intellihub Exclusive: On scene investigator banned from Mandalay Bay, MGM, for life AFTER HE DISCOVERED THIS!
By Shepard Ambellas - October 15, 2017 29887

A comprehensive investigation with pictures from inside the Mandalay Bay after the Las Vegas shooting

LAS VEGAS (INTELLIHUB) An independent investigator working on the Las Vegas shooting case was staying at the Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino when he was abruptly and ‘formally trespassed from all MGM Resorts International Properties’ within 24 hours of his check-in.

The investigator, who likes his anonymity, goes by “@Nick_Falco” on Twitter and has posted a series of tweets confirming his claims that he was indeed banned from the property ‘for life’ by MGM management around 7:30 p.m. Saturday evening.

Falco told Intellihub exclusively that he received a phone call from the front desk of Mandalay Bay shortly before 7:30 p.m. in which a female operator instructed him to answer his hotel room door where four men (two armed guards, a security guy, and an FBI agent) simultaneously met him. Falco was then told to pack up his belongings before the FBI agent conducted a subsequent inspection of his room.

Soon after the independent investigator says that he was then escorted over to the main entrance of the Mandalay Bay where a security guard stood him in front of a camera and verbally read him the trespass.

Las Vegas tourism sees changes in aftermath of shooting
Published October 16, 2017 - 12:06am
http://hawaiitribune-herald.com/news/nation/las-vegas-tourism-sees-changes-aftermath-shooting

LAS VEGAS tourism sector is bracing for changes in the aftermath of the massacre that killed 58 people at an outdoor music festival.
Analysts who closely track the finances of the city’s casino companies say Las Vegas will see a short-term dip in visitors in response to the shooting.

Casinos and police may have to impose new security measures after gunman Stephen Paddock brought more than 20 rifles into his hotel room and drove a car filled with explosives into the parking garage.

The “What Happens in Vegas Stays in Vegas” slogan has been put on hold, as has one unveiled in the weeks before the shooting by the owner of Mandalay Bay that said, “We are not in the hotel business … we are in the holy s—- business.”

Electronic billboards that typically promote restaurants, concerts, a topless pool and other entertainment are now showing a dedicated phone line for victims and their families, along with words of appreciation for first responders and casino employees.

“We’ve been there for you during the good times. Thank you for being there for us now,”

reads a black-and-white billboard message with the city skyline and “#VegasStrong.”

It’s hard to quantify the effect the shooting will have on Las Vegas tourism. Airplanes still carry loads of tourists to the desert oasis, convention-goers fill large halls to discuss the latest industry trends, and slot machines ring in the casinos.

But stock prices of the main Las Vegas casino companies all took a minor tumble after the shooting, in an indication the attack will have some effect on the industry. Analysts with investment bank Morgan Stanley forecast the shooting will decrease demand for the Las Vegas market for about six months and have a 4 percent to 6 percent economic effect.

The analysts looked into the effect of terrorist attacks on “revenue per available room,” a key gauge of a lodging company’s performance, across different markets to measure the shooting’s potential impact.

The report said not all markets are alike, but the effects on tourism of events such as the Orlando, Florida, nightclub attack have gradually become less pronounced and shorter.

On Oct. 1, Paddock, a 64-year-old professional video poker player, shattered windows of his hotel suite on the 32nd floor of the Mandalay Bay hotel casino and unleashed withering gunfire at the Route 91 Harvest country music festival below before killing himself. His vehicle was found at the hotel’s massive parking garage with a potentially deadly cargo of 1,600 rounds of ammunition and 90 pounds of chemical explosives.

In the days after the shooting, visitors found marked police SUVs parked outside their hotels along the Strip. Security employees of the Wynn Las Vegas and Encore casino-resorts used hand-held metal detectors to check bags. Guards asked some visitors to pop their trunks.

But those measures have since been scaled back.

A tour of several major resorts found no apparent new security measures other than guards checking room keys at Mandalay Bay.

Mandalay Bay’s parent company, MGM Resorts International, owns more than a dozen properties, including casinos, convention space and arenas on the Las Vegas Strip. Spokeswoman Debra DeShong said in a statement

the company has elevated its level of security, but she declined to provide details.

Las Vegas hotel operators must make their guests feel valued and comfortable

in the aftermath of the shooting, said Michael McCall, Michigan State University professor of hospitality business.

He suggested resorts offer room upgrades or discounted tickets to customers as tokens of appreciation.

But he said many casinos and hotels will tread lightly when it comes to airport-style security in a city where people want to let loose.

“You don’t want it to become a sort of ground zero military-type of operation,”

McCall said. “People are going there largely for fun.”

MGM declined to comment on any hotel room or convention cancellations. Caesars said its properties haven’t received out-of-norm room cancellations, and no conventions were called off.

Last week, the National Business Aviation Association convention drew around 27,000 people to Las Vegas. IMEX America, an expo for incentive travel, meetings and events, brought 12,000 attendees.

Luis Barros visited Las Vegas for the aviation conference. While sitting at an airport slot machine, he said he never considered canceling his trip after the shooting and had no concerns about his safety.

“I figured this is probably going to be one of the safest places after what just happened,”

the Dallas resident said.

“I think I’m more concerned about the somber feeling, but as far as security-wise, no, not at all.”

The shooting has altered at least one event. Organizers of the GEICO Rock ‘n’ Roll Marathon scheduled for November will no longer start the annual race outside Mandalay Bay or hold the pre-race concert at the venue where the shooting took place.

Las Vegas last year welcomed 42.9 million visitors and hosted almost 22,000 conventions. On average, 95 percent of the 149,339 rooms available were booked during weekends. Clark County recorded gambling revenue of $9.7 billion.

For the time being, the fierce competition for those dollars is not on display.

“There’s going to be a time when we go back to promoting Las Vegas as the greatest destination in the world, but that’s not now,”

said the city’s top tourism official, Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority CEO Rossi Ralenkotter.

“We need to take care of this, we need to take care of our customers, we need to take care of the community itself, and that’s what we will be doing.”

Rossi Ralenkotter rant.

(Joe) How many people were involved in this operation in total in terms of spotters and...?

A: 27

Q: (Niall) Did some of these other people shoot outside or at other casinos that had active shooters?

A: Yes

Q: (Niall) So that's a lot of people...

(L) There could have even been people in the crowd shooting.

(Joe) Well, no, they said there were three shooters. Well... Was the third triangulated shooter on the ground in the crowd, or was he further back?

A: Further back but on ground.

Q: (Joe) And of course the FBI and all these people are well aware of all of this, and they're just covering it up, right?

A: Yes

Q: (Joe) That FBI dude is such a creep.

(Pierre) And the third shooter was 270 yards from the crowd?

A: No

Q: (Pierre) Ah... How far?

A: 80

Q: (Pierre) 80 yards. Wow...

(Niall) Fuel tank, right?

(Joe) We can triangulate it.

(Pierre) There was an acoustic analysis that said 270.

(L) The guy on the ground could have been using a silencer, too. Alright, now you guys have gone over your one question.

(Joe) Well, they keep answering... [laughter] So there were two shooters in the room. Was one of the guns up in the room a heavier caliber gun as we have surmised?

A: Yes

Joe, can you let us know what comes up for the triangulation? Also the shooter outside the concert is said to be way closer then reported by Mike Adams and judging from the witness accounts this sounds plausible. Also, the 3rd shooter is said to be on the ground which is surprising. The roof top claim by Adams seemed sensible. Having only 1 shooter on the ground (does this mean ACTUALLY on the ground?), would mean he would shoot in one area then move the gun (while standing still unless he's running around) to another location and so give the impression of multiple shooters.

Any analysis taken from this information would be appreciated.

Mystery as Vegas police stop news conferences on massacre, call wounded guard a 'victim' (Vid-01:38)
By Greg Norman, Fox News
http://www.foxnews.com/us/2017/10/17/mystery-as-vegas-police-stop-news-conferences-on-massacre-call-wounded-guard-victim.html

The Mandalay Bay security guard who slipped out of the public spotlight in the aftermath of the Las Vegas shooting is not a missing person, police told Fox News on Tuesday, amid continuing questions about his whereabouts.

Jesus Campos was scheduled for a series of television interviews last week, including one with Fox News' Sean Hannity, but the guard vanished in the hours beforehand, without telling his union president where he was heading.

“He is a victim in this and we don’t discuss victims,” Las Vegas Police Officer and Spokesman Larry Hadfield told Fox News on Tuesday.

Hadfield said the department is not planning on holding any future press conferences, absent the development of new details.

MGM Resorts International, the hotel's parent company, told the Las Vegas Review-Journal: “Jesus Campos wants to tell his story at a time and place of his choosing. He’s asked that everyone respect his request for privacy. We could not be more proud of Jesus.” The newspaper suggested that based on that statement, MGM seems to know Campos' whereabouts.

David Hickey, president of the Security, Police, and Fire Professionals of America union, which represents Campos, said on Monday it had been four days since he last saw Campos.

“We have had no contact with him... Clearly, somebody knows where he is," Hickey told the Los Angeles Times.

The union leader on Friday told reporters he received a text Campos was visiting a walk-in health clinic in the Las Vegas metropolitan area.

"For the past four days he's been preparing," Hickey told reporters Friday, FOX5 Las Vegas reported. "We had a meeting with MGM officials, and after that meeting was over, we talked about the interviews, we went to a private area, and when we came out, Mr. Campos was gone."

But as of Tuesday, the clinic told Fox News it had no updates on a possible visit from him. On Monday, a spokeswoman said she had “heard nothing” about Campos stopping by.

Clark County Sheriff Joseph Lombardo said Campos was investigating an alarm for a door that had been left ajar on the 32nd floor of the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino when he was shot by gunman Stephen Paddock on Oct. 1. Campos then alerted hotel security about the ongoing scene, police said.

However, a former guard who worked for the property in the early 2000s cast doubt on Lombardo’s statement Monday, telling the Los Angeles Times no such security system existed during his employment there.

“There was no alarm system for opened doors when I was there,” he said, speaking on the condition of anonymity. “You know how often people would have to call hotel guests if that was the case?”

One of Campos’ co-workers who spoke to the newspaper hopes Campos – who she called “humble and so charming” -- emerges soon so he can be honored for his actions on the night of the shooting.

“He was always in the middle of what was going down,” the co-worker said, who also spoke on condition of anonymity.

On Sunday, a man who said he had been hired to guard Campos' house in northern Las Vegas told the Los Angeles Times he was there to prevent news media from snooping around on the property, but did not reveal who asked him to do the job.

“No media on property” read one sign near the home.

Neighbors around the single story building where Campos reportedly lived, with a pool in the backyard, said the Mandalay Bay guard mostly kept to himself.

"He's a hero,” Jaime Ruano told the Los Angeles Times, “and nobody knows where he is.”

Mandalay Bay security guard set to appear on ‘Ellen’ after avoiding media — VIDEO 08:34

By all accounts, Jesus Campos has not disappeared. He’s landed on Ellen DeGeneres’ couch.

The 25-year-old had been dodging reporter interviews. Signs outside his east valley home still read, “NO TRESPASSING” and “NO MEDIA ON PROPERTY.”

But the Mandalay Bay security guard whom a gunman shot in the leg Oct. 1 before opening fire on a nearby country music festival crowd continues to stay in contact with his employer, and police don’t consider him missing.

“Jesus Campos wants to tell his story at a time and place of his choosing,” MGM Resorts International, which owns and operates Mandalay Bay, said in an email to the Las Vegas Review-Journal early Tuesday. “He’s asked that everyone respect his request for privacy. We could not be more proud of Jesus.”

Apparently the place of his choosing is the “The Ellen Degeneres Show.” In an episode that will air at 3 p.m. Wednesday on KVVU-TV, Channel 5, Campos and Mandalay Bay maintenance worker Stephen Schuck will describe what happened to them Oct. 1.

Schuck was caught in the initial hallway gunfire and helped direct police to gunman Stephen Paddock’s room. He previously appeared on “The Today Show” but otherwise has also kept a low profile since the shooting.

In clips of “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” supplied to the Las Vegas Review-Journal, Campos reviewed the events of the shooting, recounting how he was alerted to check on a door that was ajar. He said he was on the stairwell going from the 31st to the 32nd floor and came upon a door that was blocked and wouldn’t open. So he rerouted through a hallway and called security dispatch to get an engineer to check on the blocked door. The worker summoned would be Schuck.

Campos said he then heard drilling sounds and believed the slamming of the heavy door he passed through to get to the 32nd floor alerted Paddock to his presence. Paddock shot through the door and hit Campos in the leg.

“I was walking down and heard rapid fire,” he said. “And at first I took cover. I felt a burning sensation. I went to go lift my pant leg up and I saw the blood. That’s when I called it in on my radio that shots have been fired.

“And I was going to say that I was hit, but I got on … my cellphone just to clear radio traffic so they could coordinate the rest of the call.”

Schuck said he came to the 32nd floor from a higher floor via a service elevator and rounded the corner. Campos was toward the end of the hallway, but Schuck said he didn’t know that at first.

“I thought I saw someone hop out of the cubby, and I kept walking,” Schuck said. “Once I got more than halfway is when I saw Jesus and I started to hear shooting.”

Shuck said he thought the sound was a jackhammer at first but knew that was unlikely. He also thought the shooting sound was outside and not in the hallway yet.

Campos leaned out and said, “Take cover, take cover,” Schuck said.

“He yelled at me, and within milliseconds, if he didn’t say that, I would have got hit. I wasn’t fully in cover, and (shots) were passing behind my head and I could feel the pressure.”

Campos said a female guest came out of another room’s door and he told her to go back in because it wasn’t safe. Campos told Schuck to stay back and take cover. More rounds from the shooter’s guns followed, Campos said.

Campos seemed to acknowledge that he wouldn’t revisit the events of Oct. 1 after his interview with DeGeneres.

DeGeneres said, “You’re talking about it now and then you’re not going to talk about it again, and I don’t blame you because why relive this over and over?” Campos nodded.

Campos then thanked Metro, the FBI, the first responders, people who got called into the hospitals, and the community for coming together valiantly.

“Everything puts pieces together on how everyone came together to help that night even in the darkest hour,” Campos said.

The question of Campos’ location first arose Thursday, when Campos failed to show up to five television interviews scheduled by the International Union, Security, Police and Fire Professionals of America.

His neighbors haven’t seen him in a few days. No “Jesus Campos” is registered as a guest at any MGM properties on the Strip.

And while calls to his listed telephone numbers continue to go unanswered, Metropolitan Police Department spokesman Larry Hadfield said Campos is “fully cooperating with the investigation.”

Fluid timeline

Campos became a critical witness the second he was shot in the right thigh.

Interest in speaking with Campos intensified after Clark County Sheriff Joe Lombardo began changing the timeline of the shooting, which left at least 58 dead and more than 500 injured.

Lombardo first said Campos had been shot after the gunman opened fire on the festival crowd. He hailed the guard as a hero and even cited Campos as a reason why Paddock may have stopped firing on the crowd, fearing authorities were closing in.

Paddock shot himself in the room sometime after that, the sheriff said.

During that initial explanation of events, Lombardo said it was a “miracle” Campos survived. Investigators recovered about 200 rounds in the 32nd-floor hallway where the security guard had ducked and covered while nursing his wound.

When the gunfire stopped, the sheriff said, Campos even helped hotel guests to safety until officers arrived to breach the gunman’s room.

Then, without much context, Lombardo said early last week that Campos had actually been shot at 9:59 p.m., six minutes before the gunman ever opened fire on the festival. He added that Campos never actually helped hotel guests out but he still considered Campos a hero.

Within a day, MGM disputed the sheriff’s new timeline. Then, the hospitality and entertainment company went on to say Campos had actually been shot within a 40-second window prior to when the gunman opened fire on the festival crowd.

A day later, the sheriff agreed with MGM.

“I’m not in conflict with their statement,” he said during a Friday press conference.

MGM said Campos is on paid leave while he continues to heal, adding that he has access to counseling options “that are available to all employees injured in the shooting.”

Funds for Jesus Campos:

Two separate GoFundMe campaigns have been created to raise money for the Mandalay Bay security guard as he continues to heal.

The first campaign, created by Mandalay Bay employee Liliana Rodriguez, had raised more than $35,000 as of Tuesday evening. David Hickey, president of the International Union, Security, Police and Fire Professionals of America, personally donated $5,000.

The second campaign, created by Encore Event Technologies, which bills itself as “the AV partner to Mandalay Bay,” had raised more than $11,000 as of Tuesday evening. “This campaign is for Encore employees,” the fund reads.

Not sure what to make of Orlovs article but what stood out to me was this interview he linked to: _http://www.ktuu.com/content/news/Alaskan-describes-before-and-after-of-Las-Vegas-concert-shooting--449162493.html

In my opinion it looks like it is made in a studio and then copied onto the background scene..

Not sure why you'd think that. Maybe because of the ultra high definition of the video. I also can't think of a good reason why the news corp. would do such a thing, I can't see any benefit.

Dmitry Orlov has posted some thoughts about this terror theatre event that I haven't seen so far anywhere else: http://cluborlov.blogspot.com/2017/10/the-limits-of-gullibility.html .

Miles Mathis has written a short paper titled Las Vegas Hoax: _http://mileswmathis.com/lasveg.pdf (link is disabled because Miles Mathis holds some rather controversial theories).

Not sure what to make of Orlovs article

Orlov's article is a good example of a lay person's wild speculation and assumptions. Another reason to be suspicious of him.
