64 Year Old Stephen Maddock: The Man Behind Las Vegas Shooting, His Brother Says DON’T LABEL HIS BROTHER A TERRORIST!

“He went to college, he had a job”, says Eric, trying to separate his brother Stephen Paddock from the image of a monster he’s being painted as after killing over 50 people Sunday night. Eric later admits Stephen had “no active employment”:

Eric Paddock says there’s nothing that would have lead him to believe to his brother would commit such an egregious act, adding the last time they communicated, Stephen was concerned if their mother had power in her Florida home after Hurricane Irma:

Had just left Ice bar at Mandalay Bay Hotel and then shooting started a few minutes after this has been one of the scariest nights. We were told to evacuate I’ve never had to run so fast the shooting started a few minutes after. My prayers go out to the victims and the injured and their families. The place and surrounding hotels got locked down so fast. I’m still in shock and still waiting to hear from friends. We tried calling, texting social media etc while this was happening and after the event. We all divided to do our own thing when we got into town. So getting a hold of everyone was hard. Please watch your comments. The videos were to inform our friends who weren’t picking up our calls. Some of us just got back into our hotels and homes and haven’t slept yet. I’m so sad this happened. stay strong Las Vegas. #staystronglasvegas #lategram
