martha: candace, good to have you with us. we heard about this piece of paper with numbers. they are searching for some manifesto or suicide note. your thoughts on that? well, they are saying it s not a suicide note. it could have been anything. what was going on in this man s mind. it s not a suicide note. i think he did two things that are a suicide note. he sent his girlfriend away so she would not number las vegas when it happened. bought her a ticket to the philippines and sent her a large amount of money telling her to buy a house. he knew he was going to commit suicide and didn t want her anywhere around. martha: you don t put credence in what we heard from the sherriff that there was a possible exit route for him? not until it is revealed. i don t believe he planned on getting out of there.
