The man who killed 58 people in the worst mass shooting in modern US history is seen in newly released CCTV footage calmly chatting with other people and taking suitcases hiding ammunition to his room just before carrying out the murders.

Stephen Paddock gambles and nonchalantly talks to other guests and staff at the Las Vegas hotel where he was staying.

He betrays no clues to planning a massacre, although records show that over several days Paddock amassed an arsenal of 23 assault-style rifles and a handgun in his suite.

I disagree.  Circle gets the square.

Paddock was filmed repeatedly leaving the hotel for his home in Mesquite, returning with a minivan loaded with suitcases. The valets take his keys; concierges stack his luggage on gold trolleys, helping him transport at least 21 bags upstairs over several days. Paddock chats and jokes with them.


A single guest brings 21 bags over several days, but that doesn't seem odd?

It was all in suitcases and boxes. I've attended conferences and brought in tons of boxes with books and other display items. It isn't always uncommon for someone to bring in a lot of boxes to hotels like this.

I can see that, but he was known in a lot of the establishments and comped often.  You'd think they'd be aware of whom he was and not your average conference/trade show attendee.
