everyone out of what we ve been calling this fish bowl. even if they only got five minutes, 20 minutes, 25 minutes, they are moving people out of the line of fire, so there s two things going on, both holding him in the hotel room and moving future victims or potential future victims out of the way. it sounds all right to me based on our experiences of other mass shootings at this stage. the undersheriff talked about how this killer built himself an armed bunker or gunner s nest in that room. james gagliano mentioned this as well. tom in our studio? we knew that he had this commanding view of the strip and the concert area over here from this 32nd floor of the mandalay bay. what is emerging is a picture of a man who built sort of a fortres up here, and a trap for any police who tried to come and
that. we also learned that they haven t found it so far some 47 different weapons in the hotel, in his house in mesquite in the house in reno. the big news of the news conference is in the hotel, of the 23 weapons they found, there were 12 bump stops, those are the pieces that you attach onto these weapons that actually turn the trigger into an automatic firing it doesn t alter the gun itself but it means the trigger can fire automatically, guns can then shoot off between 40800 rounds per minute. imagine having a dozen of these in the room at the same time. they also showed us some body camera footage from police officers who were down on the ground in the concert area. i want you to look at this video because this is the officers telling people where to go, listen if you will for a few seconds on them being able to try to decipher where the gunshots are coming from.
context of this event is the mind of the killer who is gone. trace: we go over this again, this is a guy who spent for cody s in this hotel and he suitcases full of ammunition and weapons and he scouted this concert area, and he knew there were two windows and if you busted holes in both of them that he would get better angles. what do you make of the mind-set that went into this? this thing was absolutely planned to the minute. it is pretty incredible. you look at the preplanning, premeditation, thought process that went into this, and the fact that obviously he had to go through some type of counter measures to conceal or have a cover for what he was doing and what he was bringing in there, really breaks the mold in those terms, as well. you don t have that extensive planning until you get into a multisubject conspiratorial type of event like terrorism. for a singular actor to go
twitter and instagram and other social media waves ha has still not heard from their loved ones. investigators are still here on site. a very tedious process. we have exclusive video we want to show you. we will show you that in a second. full screen graphics that we can show our viewers at home kind of gives you a perspective of everything. the first one shows the mandalay bay and concert area. we are showing from you ground level. we have been around here, of course, for the last roughly hours from the breaking news situation until now, the recovery process. now, the second one we have for you gives you this kind of the shooter s view of the fire. the map of the mandalay bay hotel the concert area and kind of the line that shows you from the window down to the concert floor. now, as you look at those graphics. now take a look at this video. this comes from a fox news viewer befriended online. he happened to be here with his family one year ago to almost to the day for the exact same
possible and kill as many people as possible. how do you know how to do that, set up something to make something automatic if it s not already, and set up two positions and know about high ground and a cone of death or funnel effect? where did he get that? no military background. from the premeditation standpoint part of this is speculative. we know that the concert was announced in february. which would have given him time, if he had a particular grievance with the crowd there or whatever. we know that that was in february. gave him some time. we also know that he probably asked for that room, having that downward view of the concert area. and that doesn t raise suspicions on its face. chris you walk in and say i want a room so i can watch the concert from upstairs. then to bring the weapons upstairs this is not something you throw anyway backpack. couple of theories and thoughts. i m sure this would will be picked up on video. he could have had them in a golf bag. a lot of we
