E she talked about parenting today. She talked about womens responsibilities when they have a seat at the table. No doubt Michelle Obama was the big draw for a lot of women here today. One woman told me she misses her in the white house. The former first lady made it clear she and her husband have more to do. They are just figuring out what that will look like. A room full of women welcomed Michelle Obama. She sat down for a conversation with tv executive Shonda Rhimes at a time when she says shes taking time to e reflect. Its been a decade of being shot out of a canon. Now out of the white house, she says the slower pace feels good. But she and the former president are figuring out the next chapter. Definitely at my age and baracks age, were not ready to stop. It was a conversation at this conference that drilled down on womens empowerment. But squirted the edges of politics. The audience noticing when she talked about ethics ask how open opportunities are for her now. There were a lot of con strangts under the obama administration. There was a certain. Expectation. There was a lot that e we couldnt do and we didnt do. Because of our respect for the position. When it means to the country to have a commanderinchief that actually upholds and honors the office. She didnt mention the current president by name, but made broader references to current events. I want women to watch this. I want you all to pay attention. Because this is what happens when we dont stand up. We give our seats up to somebody who is supposed to be because of the stereotype notions of what we think power and success looks like. The former first lady included some humor at her husbands expense when it came to his president ial library. I keep telling barack, nobody is is going to come hear about his policies. They are going to come to see my dresses. She talked about building the library and also she is write ing a book. Her vivid here in philadelphia falls on her anniversary. Her husband had a surprise for her. Were going to show you that, coming up in our next hour. Live in center city, im lauren mayk, nbc 10 news. E we want to take you back to las vegas where lester holt has an nbc news special report. As Police Closed in, lets check in as we wait for this News Conference with Steve Patterson in las vegas. We are learning about the background, but still know so little about what motivated this mass killing thrks press conference could contain any number of things. The most pertinent, the numbers that we have. The death toll, 59. That number could change. The number of injured, 527, that could go up or down depending on how many dead there are now in local hospitals. We know we have been get iting warnings from the Coroners Office that that number may change based on the number of injured they took in in all of the hospitals. Some of them were in serious condition. Others were in critical condition. So thats something to watch for. Orders, were looking at the shooter. He lives in a retirement community. This was a quiet guy. This was a a guy who was a Real Estate Investor and had a number of money. So were trying to check into his background to see if this conference e reveals anything about his background or the numbers that we have. Stay with us in las vegas. Let me get to Pete Williams quickly. You have somec new report iing today about his recent transactions, his recent gambling. Right, he had in the last couple weeks gambling transactions, over 16 of them, for more than 10,000 a piece. He was a high roller gambler. They know how it was he was able to fire shots so rapidly. He had something called a bump stock attached to the back of some of the rifles that he had, which basically allow you to use the recoil action of the rifle to fire the rifle very quickly. Thats how he was able to get that sound of gunfire that sounded like a machine gun like automatic tire. They also say last week he wired 100,000 to the philippines. Thats where his girlfriend is from. Officials say thats where she was at the time of the attack that she was in the philippines visiting relatives. Shes due back in the u. S. Later this week. The Las Vegas Police department is very eager to talk to her to see what she knows and if she had any idea if this was what he was preparing to do. To this point, authorities in las vegas have said they dont believe she had anything to do with the crime, correct . What they have said is they are sure she wasnt involved with it because she wasnt here at the time it happened, but i think they just dont know whether she had any idea he was planning this or talking about it and thats why they want to talk to her. And as we look at the room, they are testing the microphones now. Theres a screen up. I presume we dont know what kind of video they might be showing us. We dont. We know they say they are going to show a video. We dont know what it is. It seems unlikely its going to be the crime scene itself inside the hotel room. I just dont know what it is. Well have to wait and see. If we could show that video thats just coming in. This is video outside the hotel room or rooms that were used by mr. Paddock. What did they find inside of that room . If you go back to the begin ing and freeze that video, if its possible, you can see down inside the door there one of the weapons that he used. Now that is a sniper type rifle with a scope on the top. Those two legs in front that fold down on the rifle, thats called a bipod. It gives whoever is firing the weapon more stability because you can ground the front end of the weapon and it makes it more accurate. So thats one of the weapons he had. They say now he had 23 weapons, sniper rifles like that and then more ar assault weapon type rifles with high capacity magazines that explains how he was able to fire so many rounds because he had the high capacity magazines and then the bump stock ob some of these weapons a allows the weapons to be fired sort of like a machine gun. Automatically get iting all tha continuous. Rapid fire that we heard on these video, when you hear the rounds going off. Standby for us. Steve patterson actually the News Conference is just about to start. Well come back to you. Lets go to the sheriff of clark county joe lombardo. Carlos . Are we good . Were not going to e show any video. Good afternoon, everybody. You are aware of who i am, sheriff joe lombardo, clark county. This is going to be a little different orchestration in this press conference compared to the rest. What im going to do right now, i think its important that we address the victim issues we are experiencing and the resource issues that we are experiencing. So im going to key on that on the original portion of this. Subsequently, the commissioner is going to provide some donation information and acknowledgment and then after that i will come back to the podium and address the overall investigation, where we stand and where we are going. Reference to the investigation piece, i dont want to repeat of its an ongoing investigation. So i will be limited in the details that i provide you. But hopefully we can get through this with some decorum. So please dont rush me all at once. When we get to the question phase, i will identify you if you raise your hand. Sound fair . Well get through this. So as matters formality our department has worked through the night to identify the victims of the mass shooting on route 91 Harvest Festival. We have identified all but three victims. We still have an active scene at the grounds so we ask anyone to stay away from that area until further notice. The fbi is working diligently to clear that scene. So the question is the fbi v versus us, we have partnered with the fbi, as i said, from the very beginning of this in an investigative phase. The fbi has brought a large amount of resources out of washington, d. C. To assist us with that. So the reason why the Harvest Festival is still in continuation of investigation is not only solely related to the removal of the victims, but is also documentation of the scene. So were using the best Practice Technology to ensure that we have complete documentation. Thats why its taking a longer period of time associating with this. So we ask for everybodys patience. As far as las vegas boulevard, north and south we anticipate to be open shortly in the next few hours to benefit with commerce and what we do as a community. The key component here is resources and victim identification. Bare with me. Im going to try to get through this the best i can, but the important piece is if you missed a number, we are putting up on in the next hour the listing of all numbers i shall provide you today. And for people out in the public to contact us if they are lacking this or dont see this broadcast. Were asking for anyone who might have information about the shooting in a criminal capacity or a victim of the shooting to contact us via 311. If you are out of state and have left since the shooting and you have discover ed that you have become a victim or realize you have an injury associated to it, were still acting you to contact us but 7028283111 is the out of state number. Additionally, if you are a local and you have the ability to respond to a local substation, a working police substation, locals are familiar with and have the ability to file a report at that location. Now the family reunification. All that is occurring at the Family Resource center at the Convention Center located at 3150 paradise road. You can go there to file a missing person report. You can go there to have contact with the Coroners Office and to get answers to your questions as far as family reunificatioreuni. The phone number if you have left the area is 18665355654. Now we ent went through a short process recently where that number was down. We provide d a separate number. But we will go back to that or
