Contrary to the official police account, the man suspected of carrying out the Las Vegas massacre died at noon on the day after the deadly shooting, according to an autopsy report released on Friday, Feb. 9, by the Clark County coroner.
The coroner’s finding contradicts a timeline released by the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, which states that Stephen Paddock, 64, was found dead from a self-inflicted gunshot wound at 11:20 p.m. on Oct. 1 in his 32nd-floor room of the Mandalay Bay hotel and casino. The coroner’s report instead states that Paddock died at noon on Oct. 2, more than 12 hours after the time states in the LVMPD timeline.
