FBI 'Hand-In-Hand' With Vegas PD, Begin Damage Control: "There Is No Conspiracy... Nobody Is Attempt to Hide Anything"
Sheriff Joseph Lombardo of the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department appeared to be visibly shaken when told reporters Friday that he wasn't attempting to be "subversive" in previous statements he made surrounding details of the October 1 massacre at the Route 91 Music Festival where 58 people lost their lives.
_As Intellihub details,_ in the 'no questions' conference, which members of the independent media were not allowed to attend, the sheriff said that he's "well aware" of the timeline dispute released by MGM Management on Thursday which claims that Stephen Paddock fired his weapon into the crowd just seconds after Mandalay Bay security guard Jesus Campos was struck by a bullet in the 32nd-floor hallway outside the shooter's end suite.
The sheriff stuck to his guns on Friday when he told reporters that he still 'stands by' his latest timeline which lists Campos's encounter with Paddock at 9:59 p.m., 6 minutes prior Paddock's first known volley of fully-automatic gunfire.
The visibly nervous sheriff also made clear that "there is no conspiracy between the FBI, LVMPD, or the MGM" and that "nobody is attempting to hide anything" in reference to the investigation and noted his solidarity with the FBI.
"We are standing hand-in-hand with the FBI in the continuance of this investigation," the sheriff explained.
"I feel confident that there are no other individuals that are intending to cause harm to our community associated with the 1 October event."
Sheriff Lombardo also provided an explanation for changes he recently made to the publicly released timeline surrounding Paddock's arrival to Vegas and his check-in date at the Mandalay Bay.
"We have come to learn that the suspect did occupy the room on the 25th and the situation on how the room was compensated or paid for had changed on the 28th to include Marilou Danley," he explained.
Additionally, the sheriff told reporters that so far there has only been a "visual inspection" done of Paddock's brain and said that Paddock's brain was shipped to a facility that will conduct a "microscopic analysis of the brain" to see if there were any signs of mental illness.
As of yet, authorities admit that they still have no motive for Paddock's crimes and maintain that he has no affiliation with any groups.
At one point a reporter tried to sneak a question in but was quickly swatted down by Lombardo over the podium mic.
This fiasco comes after earlier chaos surrounding the sudden disappearance of Mandalay Bay security guard Jesus Campos, who was shot in the leg by Stephen Paddock...
Authored by Mac Slavo via SHTFplan.com,
Over the last few days Las Vegas law enforcement officials have significantly altered the timeline of the mass shooting that left 59 dead and hundreds injured. Adding further intrigue is the fact that the Mandalay Bay Hotel & Casino now says that they have their own timeline of events, which diverge from the official story.

On top of that, mystery still surrounds Mandalay Bay security guard Jesus Campos, who was shot in the leg when Stephen Paddock opened fire and unleashed some 200 rounds through the door of his hotel room.
As Fox News reports,the Mandalay Bay security guard shot by Stephen Paddock in the moments leading up to the worst mass shooting in modern U.S. history was set to break his silence Thursday night with five television interviews, including one on Fox News, Campos' union president said.
Except when the cameras were about to roll, and media gathered in the building to talk to him, Campos reportedly bolted, and, as of early Friday morning, it wasn't immediately clear where he was.
__**"We were in a room and we came out and he was gone," **__Campos' union president told reporters, according to ABC News' Stephanie Wash.
ampos, who is reportedly not registered to work in the State of Nevada, was also scheduled to do an interview with Sean Hannity Thursday night. But** just minutes before the interview was to take place, Campos was said to have abruptly cancelled his appearance**:
How come @seanhannity didn't run the #JesusCampos interview tonight? #LasVegasShooting

He cancelled. https://t.co/fWCb4X8cNQ

In response to the cancellation, alternative media reporter Laura Loomer attempted to reach out to Campos, who has thus far remained shielded behind his union representatives and refused to provide his account of the shooting to the public. According to Loomer, it appears that Campos and his family have been forced to remain silent because of a gag order surrounding the incident.
She "doorstopped" the Campos family in person when she visited their home in Las Vegas Thursday night.

According to a video Loomer posted on Periscope, Campos has armed security and it appears that an unmarked law enforcement vehicle is parked outside his home.

According to Loomer, Jesus Campos and his family members have been told not to discuss the incident. Further, when Loomer was confronted by an armed security guard outside of Campos' home she noted that the firm the security guard supposedly works for is not registered to operate in Nevada, to which she asks the guard:
You said that you worked for OnScene, a security company. We did a background check…. and the business license expired in January 2017 and has a virtual address… so the company that you work for…. is it a real company? Or is it just some type of a shill company that the FBI or DHS is using?

Little is known about Campos, with few pictures to emerge of the security guard and no apparent online footprint surfacing to provide details about one of the central figures in the mass shooting.

A sad occurrence
Of course the "authorities" are telling the truth.
And they will right up to the point enough wake up and take action.
Then they will run like cowards. The made for tv drama being produced by the FBI and Vegas PD and Sheriff dept. is a joke. It should be cancelled like Weinstein and his hollyweird types all stabbing each others backs right now.
Next it will be the "authority" types breaking ranks, then the military and then maybe the divisions will be enough for average folks to realized the American and world public had been hustled and tranquilized ad nausem for the last several decades, at least recognizable by a few since the Kennedy brothers removal. Face it the American public are just like the hopeful actress or actor with dreams of American stardom and money, they soon realize it ain't Kansas anymore and leave or compromise themselves and "get a job".
They sell themselves and tell every rag that will promote them that life is great and everyone here is awesome. While concealing the truth and going along to get along. Then after they are used and abused they tell their story but no one hears or cares because they are old news now and there are 100 more new comers that we would rather watch their rise and fall instead of hearing the old sob stories of rape and abuse, grow up and stop crying and grab some popcorn! The Oscars are coming on soon!
Ahh I feel better now.
