perhaps your opinion would be respected a little more here if you performed even the tiniest amount of research first.

mgm ceo's sales and dispositions (often a direct sale) of shares just this last year:

9/8: 295k (the $10m you think is evidence of involvement in the shooting)
8/9: 57k
7/31: 205k
3/3: 34k
11/9: 260k
10/5: 70k


lvbuckeye, all you've shown is how little you know about the pay structure of large corporations. you see, top execs often take comparatively small salaries because much of their compensation comes through the sales of shares. they convert their stock options to shares and sell them on the market or through direct sales. many of these sales are often scheduled well in advance. this is corporate compensation 101.

c'mon, man. think a little bit here.

Because there's a cover-up. They said he checked in on the 28th.



Edit: also because Vegas runs on tourism, and it would be really bad for business for the FBI/LVMPD to come out and say that there were suspects at large... Even though on Wednesday, Sheriff Lombardo pretty much came out and said that he had help.

He was a wealthy, compulsive gambler that lived on comps. He could have checked in on the 25th and checked out on the 26th. Then checked back in.

Not sure what this proves?

and that somehow proves the ceo is part of the cover up exactly how?

Because the DOW, NASDAQ, and S&P500 have been on a rocket ride to the moon for three years, unemployment is at an all time low off the housing crisis, there's a global economic recovery where emerging markets' 21% returns actually dwarf our own index funds' 18% returns, and the average American has a fuck ton of disposable discretionary income right now, which probably goes to travel, tourism, and Vegas casinos.

So obviously, the CEO of MGM is complicit in mass murder.

Of course, I drive home from work at lunch everyday to watch the Halftime Report on CNBC and get an education from Josh Brown and the rest of the gang, who have suggested buying casino equities for at least 18 months. So what the fuck do I know?

There is no cover up. None. And those insinuating otherwise do a disservice to the search for answers by doling out misinformation.

Being I used to run a hotel, all check out dates are tentative. Which is almost exactly why all hotels keep a room or two free for instances like this so we don't have to turn away guests should someone stay an extra day.
A "requested check out date" is simply a guideline. They're paying? They stay as long as they wish.

There is, quite honestly, absolutely nothing that points to a cover up. All we have is questions about the dude and why, but not who.

I'll admit there are a couple "conspiracy theories" that have in fact caught my eye. But none pertaining to this case.

Some people just can't admit that sometimes the 'why' isn't strong enough for them. There are lunatics in this world that get off at the very thought of suffering and no other reason. They simply want to inflict
as much damage on others as they deem fit or possible. It's incredibly difficult to accept, but in this case appears to be the truth.

Does the Mob Still Run Vegas?
https://www.psychologytoday.com/blo...he-mob-still-exist-in-las-vegas-good-question

If we accept that the mob is still in Vegas then it becomes easier to believe that some kind of "cover-up" could occur.
Vegas is and will always be about huge profits and anything that would effect that would be seen as a negative. Was there a "cover-up"? I personally don't think so based on early findings.
