you re correct. looking at the days before he checked on the 28th of december. you should be able to get what happened in the days before. let me put that into perspective. i also want to know for example what his credit card says. did he ever check into the hotel before? did he get gas anywhere in that neighborhood? does he have google severance about mandalay? look at this three dimensionally. i want to know over time again when we acquired the weapons, did that correspond at all to trips into the strip in las vegas in when he was communicating with his family, when he texted his brother, whether the communicationing patterns change. the bottom line is anderson you re talking about what happened in the past few days what the security cameras say. i want a three dimensional picture of a time line going back years that suggests to me whether there are changes in the time line and when i interview friends, family members and that girlfriend, whether they saw any changes by the time he c
