Las Vegas shooters laptop found in his room was missing it's hard drive.

Move along nothing to see here.
Yeah and why would somebody bring a laptop without a hard drive? :bigear:
Security. You can boot from an SD card or USB stick, do all your work, and then remove the card / stick and continue on your business. OS and all files stay with you.

Not saying that's the case here, but it's something folks do.
because it's a Chromebook and they don't know what it is?

that makes sense. I thought maybe the two guys doing the shooting took it after they killed the patsy. but a SD or usb stick is easy as pie and leaves no files.

Mandalay Bay security guard Jesus Campos left the country for Mexico just days after the Las Vegas shooting - despite suffering a gunshot wound and being a key witness in the investigation.

Las Vegas Sheriff's Department puts the brakes on information flow in Mass Shooting.

So they are going from nothing to less than nothing.

Was Lee Harvey Oswald involved now?

Much easier than a hard drive for one of the guys to slip in his pocket before they leave.

Las Vegas Massacre has disappeared from the news cycle.

BTW two more witnesses to the shooting have died in a single car accident near their home where the Mercedes exploded in flames.

Earlier today there was speculation on why there hasn't been any news recently.

This evening Tucker Carlson did a segment and now fox news has published a new piece
"Las Vegas shooting: Paddock's girlfriend may be hiding something, sheriff suggests"
http://www.foxnews.com/us/2017/11/02/la ... gests.html

Tucker had a lawyer for the Vegas injured and dead. He added a new piece to the time line. There were two off-duty LEO's with the security guard when he got shot.
Humm...

He also said that the FBI had all the bullet holes and probably the bullets.

There were questions about how long it took for the hotel to contact 911 after the security guard shooting.

The lawyer was also concerned that there only seemed to be 2 working exits for the venue. 10 minutes into the shooting spree, victims were still stuck inside the fence.

The hotel and the concert venue have millions at risk.

MSNBC. Reporter criticizes Trump for not calling for the death penalty for the white shooter in Las Vegas, while calling for the death penalty for the Muslim truck driver in the recent terrorist attack in NYC.

There. Fixed it for you.
Your best option for personal security is a lifelong commitment to avoidance, deterrence, and de-escalation.
When those fail, aim for center mass.
