4:39 pm
literally looked like a zombie who had just come out of a horror movie, but it was real life. once i had my face and my hair was completely soaked with blood from when the shooting 1st started. and i had laid next to the girl in front of me and the rest of my body was covered in blood. i just broke down. i was sterile. i was screaming i was crying, i lost all control of my emotions. and a floor manager came up to me and he told me that i needed to calm down. i was drunk and that i had spilled. it looked like he thought, looked like spaghetti all over myself, and then i should go up to my room and taken up and change and everything was fine . winds that make it out to henderson hospital swinging up at 3 am for surgery and

4:41 pm
there has been multiple, multiple phone calls and accusations or conjecture coming through social media that there is multiple shooters at other resorts that has been proven to be false within less than 12 hours yet already dismissed the possibility of multiple shooters. he had already dismissed the possibility of it being terrorist related, we believe it to solar after a lone wolf type actor. and we have to place our under control this crime scene included the mandalay bay. it included a venue that was 4 times long as a football field. it included the streets around the venue. it included what people heard of the tropicana. there were people that passed away as far away as the street in front of shooters. so i don't know how it could have been investigated
4:42 pm
4:43 pm
just come in with them. we can do better, we should be better. everyone is contributing each in their own way. but we also know that this crisis will not go on forever. the challenge is great. the response has been massive. so many good people are helping us. it makes us feel very proud that we are in it together with i was diagnosed with cancer in 2000 lives. when the doctors told me the cancer was incurable. i knew i had to make a change. so i decided to travel to one of the most toxic places in america, florida. one of florida is biggest industries and best kept secrets, is fostering mine. and the biggest player is $85000000000.00 industry. is mosaic,
4:44 pm
and i, there are reports of millions of gallons of contaminated water now flowing into the florida aqua may pro, there's a chronic or, you know, i don't want to hear that word poets name, but that's what it is in 2013 my all our family dog, my brother, who is 21 years old, myself and my father were all a whole lot and a good player. right? yeah, yeah. maybe they'll actually we're that our help is more important in me. my name is my terror, former intelligence in the air force. i was a senior intelligence analyst. and over the time that i did that job, i acquired a certain skill set and it becomes rather useful in the type of situation that i
4:45 pm
found myself in, in las vegas. in the very 1st task that was given by the attorneys was to determine how safe or how secure their service elevators were. the aftermath of 1 october m. g m resorts in mandalay bay promised to increase security, especially around the guest and service elevators. the service elevator is how the 1 october shooter got his weapons into his hotel room. you might think that elevator would be very closely monitored by the hotel, but perhaps not required. i was able to go up and down the service elevators at will without anyone ever asking me a question. this is my target making this james ship through the hallways and up the service elevator. something he said he's done $27.00 times since the 1 october shooting. this is the same service. elevator pattern used to transport his arsenal to his hotel room. he actually had help with a valet,
4:46 pm
bringing the weapons into a cart and up to his room. metro police here in las vegas confirmed a bump stock was added to the weapons pictured in those exclusive photos that i obtained several images of stephen patrick were lead to the media. what i can tell you is a very trouble, but we have an internal investigation occurring, as we speak on how those photographs retain by the public share from bartow promised a comprehensive investigation, would be put out to find out the source of those like damages ah, the farmer has worked in the night to do this. i all the big sunday, these mass shooting past the roof. now you are recess bite. all but 3 victims. you still have an active seeing the grounds near mandalay. there's a wonderful guy. his name is greg. so he made all of these way cross the city a crosses and displays at the las vegas. welcome side. i'm planning to put every
4:47 pm
name on these crosses. i'm trying to get every single photograph on these browser. and this just shows everybody the severity what happened here is what i'd like to do, show everybody that we're sick and tired of murder here in america, we're talking about the largest mass shooting the history of the united states, 58 deceased victims. we have determined there is 851 individuals injured directly related to the one over the phone. and the sheriff and i said yesterday has also passed 53000 individual donations. that's an excess of 3 point. $7000000.00. biggest strong was a go fund me fundraiser, that was started by steve says select jo lombardo steve says like running for governor and jo lombardo, who was running for reelection for sheriff's car county. so at this point, i want to thank the community. i want to thank you for let me be your sheriff and
4:48 pm
biggest strong. he's popped up all over since the 1 october shooting billboards posters and of course on the internet as a hash tag vegas, strong more than just the frieze. now, a symbol of the cities unity. we put the very strong up on the building just to kind of show your unity with the treaty that we are part of the movement along with a lot of other local businesses. we put to vegas strong ups and we want to support the movement and help raise money for the victims the healing guard, and this is regarding dedicated to the victims of the october. first the hearing garner is located in a nowhere of las vegas. there is no foot traffic in the world trade center $911.00 memorial is that you know, on a river somewhere or is it near central park? no. it's on the side where that occurred. it's highly unusual to have
4:49 pm
a memorial site, 7 miles from the side of the massacre. me. ah ah, my 1st initial reaction that i feel like it was overdue for las vegas only because after 911 when i was to a. ready motor sergeant and a lot of reports came in that they might be trying to bring a tanker truck down the strip and crash it into something that would be an easy way to make a giant explosion. kill a lot of people after 911. so 1st time in my life i ever went down to strip that i didn't see any taxis, hardly any cars, and no people when it's a saturday and it should have been packed and that went on for weeks. so they're definitely aware that if people thought there was
4:50 pm
a terrorist attack being carried out in las vegas, i think the room cancellations would be coming in fast and furious. there are multiple reports or multiple shooters coming from all over the place. how are you louis area. they're down in new york, new york where there is radio reports, but it's, you know, it's not like we haven't gotten false radio reports and they turned out to be unfounded. so you can't totally rely on a radio report origin. julian saying that there might have been 3 sugars. right now there's a now walking in with the rifle, bellagio employee entering i believe i heard a 2nd shooter at hooters, which may or may not be correct,
4:51 pm
but that's what i strongly believe that i had heard. and i know i wasn't the only one, so i called the las vegas police. and i told them exactly what my experience was included in the fact that i believe there was a 2nd shooter. i hooters. they told me that my recollection must be incorrect. perhaps they had been drinking too much that night and that they were not interested in pursuing any leads that involved the possibility of it not being a lone wolf attack. a at that point felt like i wasn't being taken seriously. and i called the f b i, i told them the same information and they told me you need to stop saying that there was a 2nd shooter. if that's not what happened today or the shooting. and then i, i pan up and you can see that stroke. i thought that was the shooter right there on the gym floor. so here i am coming up here. and this is where i stopped.
4:52 pm
and this is where i was hearing the shooting. and of course, right above is room $134.35. most of the shooting that you hear through your recording. it sounds fairly distant. it sounds like it's coming from up there and there's one burst in where it's really loud. the f b i came over and it was 9 days later and they said, oh, we're leaving no stone unturned and we just want to let you know that there was only one shooter and he's dead. and i thought, well, that's kind of weird. why did you just tell me 5 minutes ago that you're leaving us don't and turned in and really, you know, looking things up and now you're telling me there's only one shooter. i think the f b, i saw that people had seen my video millions of times and i've been out in some interviews
4:53 pm
and wanted to make sure that i was telling people that there was only one shooter. he's dead. so you know it come on back to vegas, spend your money the machines are working if you're not feeling the one arm band and they're not making no money. and i think that's what they're afraid of. i think they're afraid of period of time where people say it's not safe to go to vegas to china. very, very difficult time for us. and as we look forward to continuing with our great city, does that we offer a safe place. this is a crazy lunatic, full of hate. we don't know much about his background. the brother of the suspect isn't down. we are in contact with him along with other family members. my goal was
4:54 pm
to try to help the cops. i just tried to help them understand steve. psyche better and how people white us are. we're not normal people. my dad was on the 10 most wanted f b. i was for 9 years. there was no trail. he's never done all the year normally. who goes out and she's some people does. she was a very smart guy. i was in business with him for 30 years and we did it right. i mean, we ended up with a bunch of $1000000.00. oh, working our way out from a duplex in north hollywood, 210 unit. oh. building in mesquite, texas. he was retired and live playing frickin' video poker. when he was 40 years old
4:55 pm
he was in the grid impacts whatever they call their fancy club. he wasn't doing it to get any richer and he was doing it because you get to hang out. now tell it is nice and the people bring you drinks and they bring in. i spat shrimps and you get even really good restaurants. the goal was to gamble effectively enough to pay for all that stuff. so it didn't cost him anything. at the, at last we took over the whole top floor because he brought my whole extended family there for a week because he had a bazillion points. and he knew it was coming to an end there because they had started crunching him down a little bit and they pushed him out of reno by just cutting off his constant stuff . there was one place where the average person to come and they were treated like kings with
4:56 pm
the mob, but people to fly to some of the desert to spend their hard earned money. john and james, you citizen making $30000.00 a year would come to las vegas and $3000.00 and lose it. they got great rooms, comped and they got free drinks. ah ah bill. this isn't an orphanage even to see children have been paid for at the fountains house. oh me up papa. blue. i give a devout nap or 2 my much mamma a not sure he's good.

4:59 pm
5:00 pm
police told somebody was a deployed against anti lock down demonstrators in amsterdam. the city's mayor gave the order to break up the 1000 strong, illegal rally. and some of the big stories of the week just gone. germany shuts down half of its nuclear power plant, while belgium says it will close all of its reactors within the next 3 years to as the transition green energy gathers pace plus civilian death and destroy homes. an afghan bliss of blood, if the lead on america's drone program, the former operates, are currently in hiding from the taliban talks to ortiz. i'm heard voices throughout our operations, we were not told about any civilian dance. nobody told us, then we hit the wrong target. i'm in hiding alone.
