It’s been two days since that horrible Las Vegas shooting where Stephen Paddock killed 59 people at a country music concert.  Police still don’t know why, his brother Eric Paddock says he wasn’t tied to any extreme groups.

” Steve had nothing to do with any political organization, religious organization, no white supremacist”-Eric Paddock
