One thing, getting Great Health Care for this country. That was a big chunk. And as far as subsidy is concerned, i dont want to make the Insurance Companies rich. If you look at their stock price over the last number of years, take a look at whats happened with the Insurance Companies. They are making a fortune by getting that kind of money. Yes . How long can you [ inaudible ] we will see what happens with iran. We are very unhappy with iran. They havent treated us with the kind of respect they should have been treating. They should have thanked barack obama. They were gone. They were economically gone. He infused 100 billion to 150 billion into their economy. Gave them 1. 7 billion in cash. They should be, thank you, president obama. They didnt say that. You said you would declare National Emergency we are studying National Emergency right now. Believe it or not, doing National Emergency as you understand it is a very big statement. We will be doing that. My wife, melania, who happens to be right here, finds that subject to be of such vital importance and she is very much involved. As you know, she is on the committee and really wants to be involved in that process. Have you spoken about the iranian deal yes. [ inaudible ] they would love me to stay in. Only for one reason, look at kind of money that is being sent. Iran is spending money in various countries. I have always said it and i can say to them, dont do anything, dont worry about it. Take all the money you can get. They are all friends of mine. Actually, actually emmanuel called up and he talked to me, and i said, look, they just gave renault a lot of money. Will terminate the deal. And as far as puerto rico is concerned, i love puerto rico. We have done we he have done a great job. Yeah. We have done a great job in puerto rico. Puerto rico has to get the infrastructure going. We are helping them with their infrastructure. But most important on puerto rico is their electric plants are essentially gone. They were gone before the hurricane. They were in bankruptcy. They owed 9 billion. I think 9 billion. But the plants, as you know, were the electric was a disaster. After the storm even more so. We have to help them get the plants rebuilt. Thats a long term project, unfortunately. But we have to help them. But i love the people of puerto rico and were going to help them. Trs [ inaudible ] well, you have to watch it. You cant say there was a hurricane and now were he going to spend x dollars. And we also have to do something with all of the money that has been invested, mostly private. The government is going to have to come before that money. Because the governments going to want security. They will have to come before that money. And im sure we will be able to work that out. But the puerto rican people have tremendous spirit. When i was there and i looked at what they have to go through, they have a lot of problems, were going to help them straighten he it out. Where you are on north korea, you raise eyebrows and say this is the calm before the storm. What is next on north korea . We will see what happens with north korea. Thats all i can say. We will see what happens. We are totally prepared for numerous things. We are going to see what happens with north korea. I will say, look, if something can happen where we negotiate, im always open to that. But if it is going to be something other than negotiation, believe me, we are ready. More so than we have ever been. Thank you very much. Thank you. Thank you. So there is the president and first lady heading over to marine 1 answering reporters questions on the south lawn of the white house for about ten minutes or so following his 20minute address to the nation on the iran nuclear deal. Jim acosta is over at the white house. Our senior White House Correspondent health care, iran, puerto rico, north cree ha, significant subjects on the agenda right now. Right. Almost a Mini Press Conference on the south lawn of the white house. The president was pressed on the sublgts that y subjects that you mentioned. A couple of points, one, he seems invested, pretty comfortable with what his administration has come up with when he it comes to decertifying the iran nuclear deal. He said lets see what congress does. He reported that a couple of times to reporters on the south lawn. Even though he seems to have very big misgivings about doing this behind the scenes. He wanted to pull out of the iran deal. His top advisors were pleading with him not to do it. He seemed to be pretty
comfortable that he wanted to see what Congress Comes back with. I did press him on obamacare, this decision to scrap the subsidies to Insurance Companies to provide health care to people who arent as well off. The president essentially said, listen, those subsidies are a payout to the Insurance Companies. He is echoing white house talking points on all of this. But he went on to say that im going to interrupt you for a moment. We will get back it thto that. But police in las vegas, lets see if they clarify the time line leading up to that disaster, that massacre. This conference will be done strictly through my narrative provided to you. Okay . Okay, first and foremost, an update on the injuries. This has been a big deal on my mind, as it has been the public. And i think its important for
you to be given an rakt picture of what has been going on associated with the injuries of the 1 october event. As of 8 00 this morning i was updated with the most current numbers and let me back up just a minute. In early throws of this tragedy, i had advised each and every one of you that items of information were going to change. The dynamics of this investigation is far reaching. It is wide. Its huge. And you cant expect exact answers in early throws. My intent in early throws were to give you the information to provide the calmness in the community, to ensure that we didnt have a Second Player or third player he out hiding in the community intending to cause us harm. So there was no integrity question associated with that,
as ive experienced through the cyber space. Questioning my integrity. I provide you the information as i knew it and everybody in here knew it was going to change. So we will get through that. Im not giving you a hundred percent satisfaction associated with what i will give you today. Because i think some of thats going to change. We will not know that until we are completed with this investigation. So back to where we were. I think it is important for the community of clark county to realize, we use 17 separate medical facilities to accommodate the injuries associated with this event. And that speaks volumes for the medical community here in las vegas, in clark county. It seems to be lost in the narrative associated with this that it was strictly a Public Safety fire and police event no. It was including the medical community. And i think is important for me to give them their due respect. So 17 separate medical facilities. Todays numbers, 546 reported injuries. 501 of those have been discharged. In other words, they responded to a medical facility. They were treated for their wounds. And subsequently left to seek Healing Process wherever they chose to do so. 58 is still the number of individuals who have died. This is the important piece. 45 individuals that are still hospitalized. Some of those are in critical condition. So 58 may raise. By the grace of god, it doesnt. And we shall continue to move
forward, the medical profession, profession, will provide all of the medical care necessary, but sometimes its people meet their demise outside of our control. So im hoping that number does not raise, but todays number is 58. The fuel tanks. Im going read this narrative so my words do not get changed but i want to provide you some information in reference to fuel tanks. It is believed the fuel tanks were fired upon with intent. Mccarrons leaders have Safety Protocols in place which they reexamined following any safetyrelated incident. The leaders have already contacted experts and fuel storage out of the abundance of caution. Im more than confident that they will immediately implement any Security Changes or augmentations if they are so
advised. I have been advised there is a very low probability that Aviation Fuel could be ignited by gunfire. And tanks are outfitted for continual release of vapors. That is the situation of the fuel tanks. Any future information that needs to be provided will be provided by the Public Information office out of mccarron airport. The dates of the 25th, versus the 28th, this is not breaking news. It doesnt matter who believed it to be so in this form. We were aware of the discrepancy of the 28 willth versus the 25t this investigation. What we werent aware of it why the date of the 28th was utilized in the early portion of this as i was provided this information as part of the
person registered in the subs spekts room. We he have come to learn the suspect did occupy the room on the 25th and the situation on how the room was compensated or had paid for had changed and the name as part of the registration had changed on the 28th to include mary lou danly. So that was the confusion associated with that. No mat are whter what was perce is, that we were avoiding being transparent, add vertant was false. The autopsy, yes, there has been an autopsy performed on mr. Paddock, or the suspect. In the early evaluation there
was no abnormalities observed visually. As a matter of practice, in the forensic science, his brain has been shipped to appropriate Evaluation Facility in order to take a microscopic evaluation of the brain. So the initial report that there was no abnormalities was a visual inspection of his brain. So it is yet to be known if there are are any abnormalities to be known at a later date. Now, the time line, unfortunately, great deal of my investigators time has been preoccupied on this time line. In the public space, the word incompetence tense has been brought forward. And i am absolutely offended
with that kacharacterization. This is a very dynamic event. Very big event. Thousands of people involved. Humans involved in documentation. And every venue of information involved in this investigation. So the information was attained via security logs. Officer campos, himself, body cameras, hotel cameras, lock interrogation, my dispatch, lvpd dispatch, hotel and private cameras and interviews. Imagine bringing that all together to ensure we are drawing an accurate picture. So i will provide you a little more information on that. I still stand by the time of 21 59, 9 59. It is important that you continue to listen to me. 9 59 is important. It wasnt inaccurate when i provided it to you. The circumstances associated with it is inaccurate. I am very well aware of the mgm statement provided yesterday. I agree with their statement. Im not in conflict with their statement. But here is what i will tell you. We were provided the time of 21 59 as a human entry into a security log through investigation we have determined that mr. Campos had encountered the barricaded door, adjacent to the suspects door at approximately 21 59. In his attempt to gain entry into the 32nd floor, it a
required him to ascend to another level and eventually make access to the 32nd floor. He went to the door way that he was dispatched to originally to address the open door way. Emit gated that situation and subsequently received fire from the suspect. When you culminate that time line associated with the initial 21 59 to 22 05 time line that we are still stand by as the initial volley of fire, mr. Campos received his wounds in close proximity to 22 05. He attempted to relay that information via his radio and it was confirmed because he also relay layr relayed that information via his cell phone. So the time line via both of those sources have been verified. 22 05, the number provided earlier, referenced the majority of fire upon our community. We still stand by that time. And that was done by the combination of different sources that i listed for you earlier. 22 17, 12 minutes, that is when our officers first arrived on the 32nd floor. 12 minutes. You are very wellware that the suspect fired approximately 10 minutes. Upon our arrival on the 32nd floor the firing had ceased. We did not believe we continually had an active shooter. That point we conducted evacuations of the rooms adjacent to the suspects room and you know the rest. So there is no conspiracy between the fbi. Between lvpd. And the mgm. Nobody is attempting to hide everything referencing this investigation. The dynamics and the size of this investigation requires us to go through voluminous amounts of information in order to draw an accurate picture. My attempt, like i stated earlier, is to give you information as i know it unverified to calm the public. Not to establish a legal case. Everybody understand that . No questions, sir. Now into the future of the investigation. I dont want to put a percentage
with this investigation because it wouldnt make sense, but im here to tell you we are standing hand in hand with the fbi and continuance of this investigation. In the beginning throws of it and in the continuance of it. Our portion at lvpd has become contracted. My concern was initial safety of the community. And whether we had any other bad actors out there, that we had to address, and i feel confident there are no other individuals intending to cause harm to our Community Associated with the 1 october event. Now it has become protracted. And thats where the fbi has their expertise. We are establishing the time line of the suspects life, his motivation and everybody else associated with him throughout time. It requires us to rely on bis resources for that success. Nobodys acquiescing in my department to this. Im not acquiescing. Nor is the fbi coming in with hammer he and attempting to take over. This will continue to be a joint operation. With that being said, i want to give you the opportunity for aaron rause to provide some statements. Thank you, sheriff. Im Special Agent in charge for the fbi in las vegas. In support of our partner, from the beginning, we have established a 24hour sevenday a week command post with agents, analysts, Task Force Officers and many support personnel. We have deployed over 200 employees from across the fbi to las vegas, including many in
specialized positions. Globally, we have hundreds of agents covering every facet of this investigation. Nothing will be overlooked. We have made significant progress. To date, we have found no signs of ideology or affiliation to any groups. Hundreds of interviews conduct sewed far. Close to 2,000 leads have been covered so far. Extensive review of Digital Media on a multitude of devices is ongoing. Over a thousand pieces of evidence have been collected and are being reviewed by the fbi laboratory. Hours and hours of Video Footage from hotels continues to be reviewed. Fbi victim specialists from across the country are here assisting victims and families of the victims. More than 1800 Victim Questioners have been completed and the return of personal
property continues. We continue, we continue to ask you if you have factual information and furtherance of this investigation, please call us. If you knowing in something, say something. The number is 1800callfbi. The fbi nor a partner, we dont rush to conclusions. We ask for your patience and will not comment on the specifics of this investigation while it is in process. This is in keeping with the long standing fbi tradition. As i said from the beginning, this is our city, this is your city. Las vegas is a resilient city. The microcosm of a resilient nation. While we grief as a community, we will use that energy to learn as much as we can about this horrible crime. So that we may prevent another one from happening. I thank you. Thank you, aaron. So before we close out today, i want to provide you another written narrative. I want to read verbatim in support, in other words, bring a better light to whats occurred in the carnage associated with our community. Theres some bright spots and i dont want anybody to take offense when ive completed my comments today. Theres a a thousand heros out there. But i want to bring it home to my department and i think its important for you to hear it. So the first narrative. In the immediate aftermath of the shooting Sergeant Garrett everett arrived At Reno In Haven and saw the need for medical triage area. For hours Sergeant Everett and other officers along with
nurses, paramedics and firefighters tree aujed at least 50 gunshot victims. They ran out of tourniquets and used anything they could. Including their own hobble devices they use during the normal course of their duties. These officers calmly took care of the wounded and dying as they waited for medical transport. At times, placing the critical victims on the backs of trucks to get them to the hospital quickly. Not all of the victims made it out as the night wore on. Those same officers were assigned to guard the deceased victims, not allowing any of them to be left alone. So the undersheriff and myself, Kevin Mcmayhill took it upon ourselves to go out and visit some of my officers yesterday to discuss their mental state, to thank them, and check on their overall condition. These particular officers sustained some sub ststantial wounds. Some of them you have heard in the public forum already. And some you havent. But theres a couple key individuals i want you to write about. And one of them is brady cook. Brady sustained four separate dwun shot wounds. When i say separate, thats entries and exits. Not four separate bullets. The important piece on brady is, the suspect was fired upon the crowd as our officers started to arrive via Vehicles Which Brady was occupying one, it is readily apparent to me that adjusted his fire and directed it toward the police vehicles. So the response of those individuals, i believe, saved lives. So the personal vendettas against the police or not, maybe preventing the wolf from getting to his door sooner than later. But he c
