What are the key facts about the Las Vegas shooting?
Ian Carroll, I have wanted to meet you. I'm grateful you're here. Thank you. Thanks, man. So I just want to understand one story. I want to know what we know about the biggest mass shooting in American history in Las Vegas, 2017. I spent a full year looking into it, got nowhere, other than increasingly skeptical of the story we were told. But I really don't. There's a lot I don't know. So will you lay out what we do know?
Yeah. I mean, first, the most important thing to highlight is that I'd bet that a lot of people, when you started that sentence, don't know what the most deadly mass shooting in American history is. Because I think that most Americans have forgotten about the Las Vegas shooting because it just got... poofed right out of the news after like a week, and they just never brought it up again, basically. And then there was actually disinformation poured in to try to stop journalists and investigators and regular citizens from uncovering basic truths, from getting basic disclosure. Can you be specific?
What suspicious events occurred regarding witness testimonies?
What does that mean, disinformation poured in? Well, I think we'll get there in the story. Sure. But before we start the story, it's important to give myself context in that I wasn't there and I wasn't researching at the time. And so the actual work of what we do know was done by a bunch of citizen journalists, a bunch of really incredible researchers at the time, which I'm going to try to kind of shout out as we go through it. because I didn't do any of the original research. I came in long after the fact and did my research and found all of their work. Well, you have a talent for synthesizing. I mean, that's what I try to do is I'm good at getting eyes on stories.
What details surround Stephen Paddock's actions leading up to the shooting?
And a lot of the best researchers and journalists are just good at the information. itself, that's the journalism. And we kind of need these different people in these different lanes to sort of help each other out and work together in order to get the story done, but then also get it out to as many people as possible. And this one is so important as I think we'll talk through here, not just in that it's the most deadly mass shooting in American history, but in that it has very direct political and geopolitical implications for what's happening today on the world stage, depending what theory you subscribe to about what really happened. But The basics of what happened is we're told that Steven Paddock, this disgruntled 60-something real estate guy, ex-gun guy, thought he was a hotshot but was failing at life, and he...
was slipping in his mental health he had a gambling problem and you know all these little explanations they kind of give after the fact and he wound up going to las vegas um and there's so many places here where i'm going to have to sort of say first they told us this and then they told us this and then they told us this and first they said he checked into the hotel the day before the shooting um but it was later revised because it was obvious that he had checked in uh like five or six days before the shooting on the 25th of september And he checks in and over a series of days, he lugs up, I think, 22 bags of weapons and ammunition to his hotel room, suite 32135. He had two suites, 32135 and 32136 that were adjoining.
And he rents it alone with no one else on the room, though we later learned that that wasn't true. And he stocks it with all these weapons, which were mostly all AR platforms with bump stocks. Very important that you know they were bump stocks because that's evil and makes no sense.
How did the police response unfold during and after the shooting?
And then there's this country music concert on October 1st down outside of the Mandalay Bay across the street in this big parking lot. with thousands of attendees. And we'll kind of circle back to this endlessly, I think, as we unpack what really happened and what people really discovered about it. But there's some stuff with the security guard that gets an alert about the doors or about what's going on in the room. And he winds up up there and gets shot at through the doors. And initially, we were told that that happened
