Not much heard about the fellow two floors saying it took 72 minutes for swat to enter. To enter what? It was widely reported from the very beginning that the police did not breech the hotel room door until until about 72 mins after the attack began. They entered the hotel much earlier, were on the 31st floor about 18 mins in. That part continues to change. What's shocking to me is that a week in, the police suddenly changed the timeline and it's not just the minutes. More problematic is the sequence. In the early days, they had the arrival of the hotel security guard ending the attack. Now they say he arrived for a totally unrelated alarm about an open door on the floor, that his arrival prompted the first shooting, at him. He was wounded, the attack on the crowd started 6 mins later. I can understand how timelines need to be adjusted for mins, but how could the whole sequence be wrong for a week? Where has this guard been? You;d think he'd be calling police, saying hey, the way you're telling it is all wrong. Also troubling, What are the odds of an unrelated door open alarm occurring at the same time? It's been reported that Paddock fired 200 rounds through the door at the security guard and that he had cameras installed in the hall so he could see the hall outside. The security guard heard drilling coming from the room, he went to see what it was about. Paddock was well prepared, well armed, could see the guy in the hall, why didn't he just answer the door and kill him? Seems far more certain than shooting through the door. And if you were firing through the door, you'd think you'd act like you were answering the door, so the guard would be right outside. The guard was shot in the leg, yet the police say he was still on the 32 floor when an building engineer found him. Wouldn't you crawl the hell out of there? The hotel said yesterday that they believe the new police timeline is incorrect, but would not say anything more, like WHY? There is a lot there for all kinds of speculation. You'd think by now we'd have all the 911 calls. Instead, we don't even know if the hotel made a 911 call following the security guard getting shot. The official story is that he notified hotel security when he was shot, I think there are tapes of that, but then nothing about when the hotel called 911 or if they called at all. We have heard that there was at least one 911 call from a guest on the 31st floor who heard the shooting, presumably that was the first event, the shooting of the guard. The police have made a real mess of this and have done little to clear it up. |

If firing 200 unsuppressed shots at a security guard wasn't reported by all the other guests on that floor and did not raise the alarm, then the sound of gun shots is not all that alarming. The other question is why there was no 911 call right then. Everyone has a phone these days and the guard most certainly had a radio. I agree something stinks here. It is not surprising that we get so many whacky conspiracy theories. I hope George Bush and Dick Cheney have good alibis ;-) |

Not by blood, not by bullets, but by the sound. That call apparently came 6 mins before he opened fire on the concert. Six mins is a long time and that 6 mins, in this case, came from the fact that shots were heard inside the hotel. The evidence fully supports exactly the opposite of what you're claiming. You're claiming that as it was, not many calls came in. But enough did, it may have been the first call to police. Now if it was a limited number of calls from the sound, that strongly suggests that with significantly less noise, no call based on shots being heard would have been made. The other question is why there was no 911 call right then. Everyone has a phone these days and the guard most certainly had a radio. There apparently was a call, right then, to 911 from a guest on the 31st floor. Whether the hotel called 911, based on the guard, we don't know. The police and hotel have not said. The police have said that the guard did immediately notify hotel security, via radio, they have the tape of that. What is missing is what the hotel did with that. From their silence, hard as it is to imagine, it's sounding like maybe they didn't call 911. You'd surely think that if they did, that someone by now would have cleared that up. Time for the reporters to make FOIA requests for the 911 logs and tapes. I agree something stinks here. It is not surprising that we get so many whacky conspiracy theories.

We have heard that there was at least one 911 call from a guest on the 31st floor who heard the shooting, presumably that was the first event, the shooting of the guard. The police have made a real mess of this and have done little to clear it up. It certainly points out the stupidity of saying a silencer would have made this worse. If firing 200 unsuppressed shots at a security guard wasn't reported by all the other guests on that floor and did not raise the alarm, then the sound of gun shots is not all that alarming. And how do you know exactly how many guests called 911 or the hotel to report the shots? Clearly the police have said that at least one did call 911, from the 31st floor, alerted by the shots. Not by blood, not by bullets, but by the sound. That call apparently came 6 mins before he opened fire on the concert. Six mins is a long time and that 6 mins, in this case, came from the fact that shots were heard inside the hotel. The evidence fully supports exactly the opposite of what you're claiming. You're claiming that as it was, not many calls came in. But enough did, it may have been the first call to police. Now if it was a limited number of calls from the sound, that strongly suggests that with significantly less noise, no call based on shots being heard would have been made. The other question is why there was no 911 call right then. Everyone has a phone these days and the guard most certainly had a radio. There apparently was a call, right then, to 911 from a guest on the 31st floor. Whether the hotel called 911, based on the guard, we don't know. The police and hotel have not said. The police have said that the guard did immediately notify hotel security, via radio, they have the tape of that. What is missing is what the hotel did with that. From their silence, hard as it is to imagine, it's sounding like maybe they didn't call 911. You'd surely think that if they did, that someone by now would have cleared that up. Time for the reporters to make FOIA requests for the 911 logs and tapes. What is missing in all of this is where was the warning? (or any real response) They had 6 minutes but as far as we can tell, the first real indication that anything was going on was people at the concert being shot. You are right that there is still a lot we are not being told and we have reason to question what they tell us, simply because the story keeps changing. |

In the early days, they had the arrival of the hotel security guard ending the attack.

He was wounded, the attack on the crowd started 6 mins later. I can understand how timelines need to be adjusted for mins, but how could the whole sequence be wrong for a week? Where has this guard been? You;d think he'd be calling police, saying hey, the way you're telling it is all wrong. Also troubling, What are the odds of an unrelated door open alarm occurring at the same time? It's been reported that Paddock fired 200 rounds through the door at the security guard and that he had cameras installed in the hall so he could see the hall outside. The security guard heard drilling coming from the room, he went to see what it was about. Paddock was well prepared, well armed, could see the guy in the hall, why didn't he just answer the door and kill him? Seems far more certain than shooting through the door. And if you were firing through the door, you'd think you'd act like you were answering the door, so the guard would be right outside. The guard was shot in the leg, yet the police say he was still on the 32 floor when an building engineer found him. Wouldn't you crawl the hell out of there? The hotel said yesterday that they believe the new police timeline is incorrect, but would not say anything more, like WHY? There is a lot there for all kinds of speculation.

Greg What 72 min delay? No matter which timeline you believe is correct, the shooting only lasted ~18 mins. It took about 72 mins from the time of the first shot to police blowing the door on his hotel room, but the shooting was over in 18 mins tops, so I don't see why anyone 2 floors down would be complaining about a 72 min delay. Also, it's pretty well documented that police were on the 31st floor, the source of at least one 911 call, about 12 - 18 mins after the first shot, depending on which timeline you believe. |

At this point, I am not sure what to believe. For something where there are so many recorders going and so much private surveillance going on, I am surprised we are having so much confusion. I really believed casino hotels had cameras everywhere, just to stop those high tech fraud capers. Police radio traffic is recorded along with 911. Maybe they really don't have clocks in Vegas. |
