Federal agents question Las Vegas shooter’s girlfriend

The girlfriend of Las Vegas gunman Stephen Paddock has returned to the United States from the Philippines and will face questioning about Paddock’s murderous Sunday night rampage. Federal agents reportedly met Marilou Danley, 62, at the Los Angeles airport late Tuesday. Danley’s sisters in Australia said in a TV interview they believed she couldn’t have known the attack in advance. Clark County, Nev., Sheriff Joe Lombardo said Tuesday he was confident Danley would share information with investigators, who have yet to answer why someone with no known record of violence or crime slaughtered 59 people and injured hundreds of others at a country music concert from the window of a hotel suite. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives said Paddock had been stockpiling guns since 1982 and bought 33 of them, mostly rifles, over the past year. He had rigged 12 semi-automatic rifles with devices that allowed the guns to fire like an automatic weapon. He also set up cameras in the peephole of his hotel room and on a service cart in the hall. A security guard who approached the room during the attack was shot and wounded through the door. President Donald Trump is scheduled to visit Las Vegas Wednesday and meet with public officials, first responders, and survivors.
