3:45 pm
belief yet to shape our disdain comes to educate and in detroit it equals betrayal. when some many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. the. funny thing about. politicians grandstanding on the. move. to. following through i'm a journalist but the las vegas tribune and i tried reaching out to the vegas strong resiliency center couldn't get anybody on the phone then when the answer e-mails i couldn't get any answers where this money and god if the money got anywhere i was

3:47 pm
but i want to get coffee in the window of dunkin donuts they were selling vegas strong t. shirts out of the window everybody. this big marketing ploy the people that were victimized continue to be victimized because they have not received the funds. you know we can do one of. their new christmas. nothing regarding one of those men he knows. he would never ever allow myself to be that way. ever to who i am looking one minute in the next you know. you will thing that can destroy. this you're right. she was 22. it's not you know you or know what happened back there and
3:48 pm
you'll never know the story you know it's dark. in there is a bag. and i went to the minutes later and somebody was making on my door. and then me and. 2000. and 7 rows one and there were 8 kids are on the other one of them. are 20 feet. apart. nobody wants to do anything every shot. many times. a lot. of problems. out for every meal you don't get a part of the world. or the. shooting never distribution. they're letting people forget about it because. there's always somewhere down
3:49 pm
apologise you can blame and cicely will say that while i was the fundraiser but i'm not responsible for distributing well the hell you're not because if you're not going to just tribute to my each of the victims why collect it. i think the community saw her 1st as a tragedy but the selection he sought is an opportunity every time there was an event that involved they just. he was there walking around making certain that he has face time you need to go over your head but this community is short of side so if i did never showed before getting a really proud mostly. i saw him jumping in front of cameras to show his support and to be real emotional about this horrific tragedy that happened but i didn't see him just bursting any money quite a lot of money. raised over $10000000.00. there is not much building it's over 10 feet long and it's up there on main street i'm going to business owner in downtown
3:50 pm
las vegas for over 10 years and i just i love my community and we're helping and we're not don't know where that money is happen it's not getting to the people who need it the victims are getting it the victims are missing the rat they're missing their mortgage payments provincially the funds were distributed but they were distributed at the time that the people needed it they needed those funds early on that's when the bills are racking up that's when the rents to the car payments to the insurance to do that is when they needed the help they didn't get it. and g.m. e-mailed me shortly after the shooting and they said that they realized what happened that night. and they liked me a 10 percent coupon and my next day at one of their property it's because obviously a 10 percent discount in a hotel or am is going to just make everything go away and make all the victims forget the hell that we suffered. serious really the way. to what did you know. my recollection we have information on the 25th. told you previously the 28th or
3:51 pm
you go to timeline change and 3 times because people were calling out things different and it seemed finale. ma'am that's not how we conduct just service ok we can 5 percent with a question. you can the f.b.i. does not know i can do a press conference manner at this point please stop asking your question and you get really angry and that lady was never allowed in the room again and there shortly after they did she. the timeline that matched the independent journalists findings. sometime late october i was here and i noticed that there's a camera here amount of mail so this business you know i was wondering if that actually caught any of the footage from people coming through here so i asked if i could take a look at and see if i could access the information and next thing you know videos on fox news 2 men dragged what appears to be a fall and sit down into the parking lot the business owner who possesses this tape tells us that no law enforcement officer or government investigator has ever seen
3:52 pm
the video or even asked to see it you would think that the l.v.n. p.d. and the f.b.i. would want every piece of evidence that they could possibly get their hands on we have hundreds of agents covering every facet of this investigation nothing will be overlooked from bartow promised a conference of investigation into alleged images of the stephen petter crime scene and we still haven't received the results of this comprehensive investigation so i decided to call in to a radio show in which sheriff umberto was answering questions to city involving believe it. promised. to do it in. order to. push for a cleaner pretty comprehensive restitution retrain romantic ground for would you introduce yourself to me 1st you have a department with over 600000000 dollar budget yet they couldn't figure out the
3:53 pm
really images from a cell phone imagine that in my opinion from bartow is why it is certainly not the 1st lie he's told about want to talk for the 1st time is to see the pope as loss of a source a community yes it is or see if tears community us. from barros reelection campaign a violent crime rate report was released. which show that the violent crime rate in las vegas had been reduced when in fact it didn't take into account the 58 that we lost during one tobar and there's also 2 other homicides that it also didn't take into account so you had 60 homicides that were not included in this report so the crime rate actually was the highest in las vegas history if you include the 60 that they so conveniently left out. former police officer deputy sheriff and criminal vesta gator and i spent about 20 years in the casino industry as
3:54 pm
a director of security and i'm also a journalist i was listening to the radio static swat officer we buy hancock on the radio they say we have actual destroyed but none of that was released publicly we want it all on your own little. job i don't miss anything about the asshole discharges so i broke the story about a month later in the border post examiner and they later came out and said there was an actual discharge they expose the fact that he had. the problem and that was when a lot of people started asking questions about why we were being given the whole tray of accidental discharge excuse me to tell you you know to jump in. because he's a pretty good puppet. he's a lawyer there is no conspiracy between the f.b.i. between illian p.d. and the m.g.m. nobody is attempting to hide anything. when
3:55 pm
you try to hide age conspiracy theories breach people say and why is he lying he's a liar they're covering this up becoming that if there was a conspiracy it was conspiracy to cover up negligence and incompetence and even one of the stories he'd be titled was his job on a lie or incompetent or both the word incompetence has been brought forward and i am. absolutely it offended with that characterization to shut down all the press conferences shut the pie. look out of the information and the story just started to go away shortly after that do you have a radio commercial where the public's no longer allowed to listen to the police scanners out here. what's happening and. they're getting called out on a daily basis for the inconsistencies and they kept changing the stories and i think probably all that was based on the fact of people check up listening to the
3:56 pm
radio even compared to the stories you could see for yourself that they were telling the truth. and your news outlets have filed lawsuits asking law enforcement to turn over police records related to the 1 october shooting this is according to the l a times which is one of the plaintiffs. over half a dozen media outlets got together a lawsuit together to sue the last 8 years most of all police apparently over them refusing to release these documents at the court ordered them to release the supreme court ruled that all information was supposed to be given out immediately so sheriff cited to charge nearly half a $1000000.00 to do december maisha another legal maneuver on his part to delay the release of the information of las vegas judge ruled that las vegas metro police can not charge the media high fees to get records on the 1 october shooting and at the behest of the court system we were mandated to provide body worn camera footage in
3:57 pm
document footage as part of a public information request the las vegas metropolitan police started releasing data but only bits at a time or from bartow cherry picked which information he wanted to have come out before the election and which information was going to come out after the election . and there is not a new sheriff in town where he and his former child bardo was reelected as las vegas metro. in june of 2018 it wasn't until after that that he chose to release videos of his officers cowering in the hallway outside of their products room and said it immediately entering to stop the possible threat of more people being shot out of the hotel room and.
