Although some CT nut in the twitter comments has it all figured out!

Mostly "he bought guns and ammo in the year before, and so was planning it all meticulously."

Or "his girlfriend helped him load magazines" and, well, loading magazines is suspicious all by itself. Now, if they'd said "helped him load 50 magazines" as opposed to "helped him load 3 magazines" there could be some way of justifying the suspicion. Some idea of time would helpful.

Tease.

But the "immediate at the crime scene" photos

Displayed no shells (or burn marks from the heat thereof.

This thing stinks

shells that would have gone out of the windows he fired from.

I hadn't read what you posted and tho I once qualified in the service with an M-16, I'm no expert as to dealing with an automatic weapon - specifically, the spent shell casings. That said - if he truly was meticulous with the planning, is it not possible he devised some way to keep those casings from flying all over the room? Knowing you were going to be laying out a "carpet" of casings around where you'd be shooting, he'd realize it would start to get tough to move around without falling on his ass.

It appears he actually fired through the windows, behind the closed curtains. One would assume the ejected casings hit the curtains and fell to the floor to his right.

And the silence, aftermath, stranger.

It's - as if - another blip on the radar, went away

in the middle of a firefight, too. Methinks this Paddock asshole cooked every rifle he had, and realized he was a dead duck.
