NV - 59 Dead, over 500 injured in Mandalay Bay shooting in Las Vegas, 1 Oct 2017 #2

I am going to guess no. I predict she will lawyer up and protect the estate.

I really think she will try to help the best she can. I just hope she reveals everything and doesn't omit anything the FBI needs to know.

The NV LT. Governor:

".....We saw and heard story after story like this. Ordinary Americans helping other ordinary Americans. It’s a great day for America. It’s a very sad day for Las Vegas, my hometown. Tragedy beyond words but this is the day when Americans helped Americans. Make it through the night. I say God bless them all."



I think we needed to see it in it's entire context. I do think it was very very poorly worded. But he was trying to point out the spirit and helpfulness that brought all of the people together during the enormous tragedy.

Yes, seeing in context does help. The FOX bumper was just the phrases and was even more so in very bad taste.

Detectives did not interview Danley immediately after she landed, instead allowing her to get some rest after a long flight and amid the stress of the ongoing investigation. They plan to question her when she's ready today, the official said.

The law offices of Matthew Lombard confirmed to ABC News this afternoon that Danley is at the FBI field office in Los Angeles with Lombard, who is representing her.

I lot of money can be made in real estate.

It's all about timing. I had a step uncle who came from nothing, served a short time in the military, got into real estate and made a bundle somehow. Had his own private plane as well. He claimed to own entire streets.

I have to say that photo does not scream millionaire businessman or high rolling pro gambler to me.

It makes me think much more blue collar or even underclass.

You can't tell how much money someone has by the way they look. Some people who are well-dressed and groomed are drowning in debt.

He obviously kept a low profile. There is a book called "the millionaire next door" or something like that. Blend in.

I know people with money who dress like hobos, drive used vehicles, complain about the price of things, etc. One of my relatives, in fact.

Per CNN: Danley is being interviewed by FBI in Los Angeles. Update shortly.

 

[IQuestion]

Small planes = drug running?

ALWAYS SHOCKED Hey that is an interesting connection! I was wondering how, after not having a job for 30 years, was he able to come up with the 25% down usually required for investment property?? Or what bank would loan money to someone who did not have a job? (Just thinking out loud.) I was trying to figure out how someone would launder money through apartment rentals and casinos. #1) Hmmmm.....walk in with a lot of cash and put it in the machines, play the machines for a while (with or without a players club card) and then cash out after a few hours, a few buffets or a few days of comp'd rooms????? Hmmmmm #2) Or claiming he got the cash, because his tenants paid him in cash....Tenant actually pays $750 for rent, but he claims their rent is $1000 per month on his tax return....viola....CASH is laundered.
Wow....this really has me thinking about all the different homes, remote locations, sparse furnishings, intense interest in guns, cameras to see who was approaching......
Even if we are "way off" there is some govt accountant looking through all of his finances and acquisitions now.

Yup, my grandparents too. They re-used plastic bags, saved butter wrappers in the freezer to use for greasing baking pans, lived in a tiny house etc...

When my grandfather died, were shocked at the size of the estate.

Happy my dad passed that way of life down to all us kids. It's served us well.

Is there some evidence that they were married? Unless he had a will, I doubt that she has any say over his estate. JMO

If this is the same Matthew Lombard, he has experience as a federal public defender. Law degree from Geo Wash University Law School. Practiced in Washington DC.

https://www.linkedin.com/in/matthew-lombard-00077b65

Knows how to represent clients in federal cases.

ETA: Part of his experience as a federal public defender was in southern California. He still has his private practice there. Assume he is experienced in representing people in trouble with the feds for crimes in So Cal..

I don't know what the laws are in Nevada but she would be his next of kin and they were living in a commonlaw relationship. Should be interesting.

Marilou Danley, Girlfriend of Las Vegas Gunman, Back in the U.S. for Grilling
by Andrew Blankstein, Jonathan Dienst and Corky Siemaszko

The girlfriend of the Las Vegas gunman Stephen Paddock is back in the U.S. and facing a grilling Wednesday by investigators seeking a motive for the worst mass murder in the nation's modern history.

Marilou Danley landed at Los Angeles International Airport late Tuesday on a flight from her native Philippines and was quickly hustled off in a wheelchair by FBI agents...

Nevada doesn’t recognize common law marriages. So if he doesn’t have a will, she will probably only have rights to any property that they jointly bought, if there is any. JMO and IANAL

It seems Nevada doesn't recognize common law marriages. If not married, I believe they would have had to file for a domestic partnership.

If he began this career back in the late 80's, he'd be like one of the pioneers of this kind of money laundering. With the advent of electronic money transfers, casino cards and online gambling, the practice has probably become much more sophisticated over the years. I don't gamble, so I'm not familiar with how that stuff works, but it can likely be manipulated in a way to store, move and clean cash.

Some have commented that he gambled online and at the casinos, constantly. If he were laundering money, he would have to work long hours and he would be cleaning a lot of cash. He likely had quotas or something similar.

Same with real estate investing. It's only in the last few years that the US has begun cracking down on money laundering through real estate investments.

I agree, I have seen that done many times on other MSM stations as well.

I suppose I am very naive when it comes to money laundering. I owned my own real estate company for 16 years before retiring. I had never heard of anyone in the real estate business in my area being arrested and charged with money laundering.

How does it work if you don't mind telling me? I love learning new things when I am not aware of how they happen. TIA

I do remember in the old Mafia days they were caught money laundering and other illegal dealings as well. But isn't that because they made what is called shell companies and its really not a business at all? Maybe I am confused about that too.

Hey Everyone,


Please do not let your emotions get the best of you. If you are feeling angry it's best to turn off your device and step back for a bit.

I really do not want to time anyone out but this will be your one and only warning from me.

Thank you,
Tricia

 

[IQuestion]

More important is, where does all that wealth come from. An accountant who worked for IRS and was a letter carrier for USPS. It just doesn't add up. Now it is possible that his dad left him a lot of money.

Hmmm, maybe he was a "private accountant" for someone else years ago. And after years of accumulating cash, figured out a way to "wash the cash" and use the cover story of being a "big time real estate investor." Yeah....this stinks like 3 day old fish.

Despite my suspicions (cuz I Question a lot) about his money/casino connections, it still does not explain why he planned and executed this horrific, unthinkable crime. BTW, the casinos are not partners, they are victims of individuals who try to use their operations to launder cash.
