Las Vegas Shooting Timeline, Security Guard Jesus Campos
New details emerge regarding the Las Vegas shooting timeline, specifically the 21:59 p.m. wounding of security guard Jesus Campos. A producer's source within the Metro Police claims Paddock was interrupted while trying to barricade his door, forcing him to start the attack early. The hosts discuss the lack of security footage from the hotel's upper floors.
Sheriff Lombardo's "Narrative" Language, FBI Oversight
Sheriff Joseph Lombardo's use of the word "narrative" during press briefings is scrutinized by the hosts as unusual for law enforcement. They note the presence of FBI Special Agent in Charge Aaron Rouse, suggesting the federal government has taken control of the investigation. Lombardo also addressed the shooter's failed attempt to ignite aviation fuel tanks at McCarran Airport.
Las Vegas Conspiracy Denials, Rifle "Cooking Off"
Sheriff Lombardo explicitly denied any conspiracy between the FBI, local police, and MGM Resorts. In a technical aside, the hosts discuss the phenomenon of "cooking off," where a rifle becomes so hot from rapid fire that rounds ignite spontaneously in the chamber. They suggest this might explain some of the audio recorded during the Las Vegas massacre.
The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department releases a revised timeline showing that security guard Jesus Campos was shot six minutes before Paddock began firing on the concert crowd. MGM Resorts disputes this new timeline, leading to public confusion and a loss of confidence in the official narrative of the response.
