New York Times Combines Video, Audio Evidence Into Timeline of Las Vegas Shooting [VIDEO

Dan Zimmerman - comments No comments

Four New York Times journalists have compiled dozens of bits of video and audio evidence captured during the Mandalay Bay shooting. They’ve matched time stamps and even audio signatures to assemble an impressive timeline of Stephen Paddock’s attack on the concert crowd below.

The video doesn’t address questions that remain about when hotel security and Las Vegas police were notified of the shooting. And the audio signatures make it apparent the Paddock fired down the hallway at security guard Jesus Campos — and eventually Stephen Schuck, as well — at least two separate times.

While it can’t begin to divine Paddock’s motivation for committing mass murder, the video production provides a impressive and at times horrific look at the 10-minute attack that resulted in 59 dead and over 500 injured.

  1. i wouldn’t want to, but if it were the only option i’d take it.

    i’m certainly not about to go full-police though and open fire on the friendly lab that makes a ‘furtive’ tail wag at me

  2. I was at the house Wednesday morning 9:30 AM having breakfast three weeks ago heard a lady screaming for help she is 80 years old 5’2”, 85 pounds she was being attacked by pitbull when I got to her she was unconscious in the street pitbull was completely straddling her not wearing a collar ( we found out later she had ripped it off the pitbull trying to fight the dog off ) it growled at me when I ran up I kicked it off the lady and shot it multiple times and killed it when it charged me, than I called it in. Victim camr too as I was shooting the pit, called an ambulance for her, she is doing ok and doesn’t remember much about the attack. Breakfast was cold when I got back to the house.

  3. I’ve trained a lot of dogs for protection work, perimeter defense and attack work. It’s what I did for a living before I went to law school. I can state unequivocally that unarmed defense against a “hot” dog can get you killed, and painfully.

    Most dogs don’t really attack, they just bite. One bite, rarely with a full mouth, and they’re done. Protect your face and neck and you’ll be okay. But some dogs go all in, and a strong, determined dog is fully capable of tearing a human being to pieces.

    If you don’t carry OC spray (a water gun with a 50/50 mix of ammonia and water can also be effective), you may have no choice but to shoot. Take the shot. And then beat the living crap out of the owner who didn’t take care of the dog and put it in position to get shot.

  4. No way was this done by anyone else, nor was he forced to do it!

    Why?
    Because it was so bungled as to prove it was a total amateur in the planning and carrying out of the operation!

    First off, he was stupid for equiping 12 of the guns with bump stocks. Not only are they a problem in accuracy at distance, but a jamming problem with said amateur running them. His “fix” was to bring 12, if one jammed, toss it aside and grab another!

    No military or terriorist would have EVER have used such a “non productive” set up!
    There would have been almost a total “turn around”, in the stats, close to 500 hundred killed and 60 wounded, if the guy kad known what he was doing and left the bump stocks in the store!

  5. I’d have no problem shooting a dog. I HAVE used pepper on one and it ran off. You attack me or mine(man or mutt) all bets are off…

  6. I would pepper spray an aggressive dog instead of shooting it. But if confronted with an aggressive human bent on causing harm to me and/or mine, I would forgo the pepper spray and shoot the human.

    I’ll give an aggressive dog the benefit of the doubt, and consider that in the future, his owner may keep him confined. The probability of aggressive humans remaining confined is significantly lower. Also, pepper spray will most likely take the fight out of the dog, but will just anger the human.

    Besides, I like dogs.

  7. Shooting 1000 rounds in 10 minutes is very tiring. Anybody who has tried it knows this. Maybe he just got fatigued, gave up any visions of escape, was looking at smoking rifles, and just decided to end it. I wonder if any video picked up a single revolver round getting fired… We still don’t know when he offed himself (if he did…)

  8. I like it except for the mag release – can’t reach that with right hand; should have put it on left side and come up with some level mechanism on right side that can extend back into reach of the trigger finger

  9. I don’t like dogs, and best thing I can say about them is that on a day-to-day basis I am ambivalent towards them. So it should come as no surprise when I say I would shoot a dog clean into the ground rather than risk a single scratch to my person. My inequaltiy expression is simple:

    Me + people I care about > any animal on the planet

  10. In order to fully control the sheep, the US government needs a scary enemy. Nazi Germany was scary. The Soviet Union was scary. North Korea is a pimple on China’s ass.

    You know that we live in a relatively safe world when the worst enemy that Washington can come up with is North Korea.

  11. Had to twice, interestingly both happened at the same location exactly 365 days apart. First mauled a woman then charged me while I kept an eye on it till the Dog Warden arrived, one round stop but couldn’t shoot it in the head because needed that for rabies check. Second time same victim called and left area. i got there and the dog appeared fine, UNTIL I touched it then it tried to take my arm off. I was leaping backwards, flinging my left arm upward as the dog leaped, drew my duty weapon and punch shot, again one round stopped it. Postscript first dog was abused by owner (next door neighbor), victim recovered no complication. Second unknown.

  12. There is no possibility of any significant violence on a Trump impeachment.

    There will be a lot of grumbling and threats but that’s it. Ninety-nine percent of the alleged “militias” in the US are already infiltrated by ATF, Secret Service and FBI agents and informants and they would be rounded up twenty minutes later.

    The same applies to the idiots on the left who think they’re going to have a “Revolution” on November 4.

    The old saw, “When three men conspire, two are police agents and the third is a fool” remains true today.

    Then there’s the question of how many of the US electorate are even CAPABLE of joining any sort of insurgency. Sure, we have a lot of ex-military types with beards running around declaring themselves to be “Tier 1 Operators”. They’re a tiny handful. There are over three hundred maybe close to four hundred million people in this country. There’s no way that at THIS juncture you can get 5-10% of them to join an insurgency which is the usual considered number needed to have an effective insurgency.

    Now if the economy collapses in another Depression with fifty million people out of work and on the streets, then maybe. Not until then.

    As for impeachment, if Trump starts a war with North Korea and it goes as badly as I believe it will, then impeachment might be feasible. But not over this whole “Russiagate” nonsense, for which there is zero evidence. Democrats thinking they can impeach him for that stuff are delusional.

  13. Crowder is a champ for respectfully letting those two present their views without cutting them off or playing “gotcha.” The pro-gun position is strong. It stands up to argument,. We don’t have to shout people down or manipulate them. When have you heard a leftist outlet give such extensive, respectful time to an opposing view?

  14. Hi all, I bought a new one chambered in 308 in the 90’s, won many silhouette matches and used it for deer and elk hunting in the thick brush, I have never had any extraction problems, as for recoil I thought it was mild compared to my short barreled 500 smith or my DE 50ae. Never put a scope or muzzle brake on mine, while shooting silhouette matches I did have the did have the cannon action whack me in the wrist enough that I started wearing shooting gloves without fingers. Accuracy was very good and even better with my reloads with ww748. I like it better than my tc contenders, but the cocking lever does take some getting used to. Proper operation is shoot, cock, open action or the firing pin mechanism will be damaged.

  15. I have no qualms with revoking Colorado’s ant-gun laws. When is the effort to repeal the Peoples Republic of Komiforna anti-gun laws? Or MA? Or NJ? Or, or, or…

  16. Personally I’m getting real damn sick and tired of people getting upset about the lack of gun control and ‘conspiracy theorists’ than they are upset about the deaths and maiming of so many. And that’s what we’ve mostly seen the media devolve into. The news that Google and YouTube was trying to suppress conspiracy theories got more air time than the actually shooting did.

  17. The sad truth is that ANYTHING the left disagrees with will be smeared to the point of being a “damaged brand”. The left has decided that a scorched earth policy is the best way to get their way. Remember when Romney, McCain, and Bush ALL were the devil/Hitler/baby killers? Trump comes along and suddenly the left says the former three “weren’t so bad”, but Trump is. Guess what? Regardless of who the next Republican presidential candidate is, THEY will be “even worse than Trump”.

    Us rational folks just need to get used to their hysteria.
