It sounds like Stephen Paddock must’ve been absolutely meticulous in covering this tracks, because almost a year later investigators admit they don’t know his motive:
Authorities in Las Vegas say they cannot “definitively” determine the gunman’s motive in the Oct. 1 mass shooting that killed 58 people.
Clark County Sheriff Joe Lombardo made the announcement as he made public results of the investigation into the shooting.
Lombardo says shooter Stephen Paddock was “an unremarkable man” who showed signs of a troubled mind.
Lombardo Las Vegas police have completed their investigation into the shooting.
The sheriff and the top FBI official in Nevada have said that they believe the shooter acted alone and it was not terrorism and that they may never know his motive.
Wow.
The most they have is that he had a ‘troubled’ mind? I never expected that they’d come up this empty handed at the end of their investigation, especially considering how long he was reportedly planning to do this.
