Las Vegas mass shooting investigation closes without a clear motive, police say

 

 

Ten months after Stephen Paddock killed 58 people at a country music concert, Las Vegas police said Friday that they have closed the investigation without being able to determine a motive for the worst mass shooting in modern American history.

 

Clark County Sheriff Joe Lombardo released a 187-page final report on the massacre at the Route 91 Country Music Festival on Oct. 1 that concluded Paddock acted alone. He was direct in confronting conspiracy theorists who have suggested there was a second gunman or that Paddock had not acted alone.

 

“Single shooter. No conspiracy,” Lombardo said.

 

A trio of Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department officers spent 10 or more hours a day over the past 10 months examining doctors’ reports, the autopsies, interviews with Paddock’s girlfriend, financial records and probing Paddock’s connections with a brother who was arrested in Los Angeles several weeks after the Vegas shooting on child pornography charges. Child pornography was found on a hard drive of one of Paddock’s computers in the Mandalay Bay hotel room where he shot down at more than 22,000 concertgoers below.

 

The vexing question of why Paddock opened fire on the crowd has been at the core of the case since the beginning and Lombardo said it was only possible to piece together pieces of information about the 64-year-old based on outside information. Paddock shot and killed himself in his room at Mandalay Bay Hotel and Casino before police could enter his room.
