other call girls. those prostitutes are among the hundreds of leads they are pursuing. the official also says that paddock had taken at least 20 cruises in the last few years, many of them with his girlfriend marilou danley. at least one of the cruises was to the middle east. and there are conflicting reports about whether paddock bought and used tracer bullets. those are special bullets, which illuminate the path of fired bullets so shooters can see whether their aim is correct....esepcially at night. all this as memorials dot the city of las vegas....as we are entering the first weekend since the massacre at the country music festival last sunday.

undercover agent convinced the three that he was an isis supporter as well and compromised their plan of attack. a 19 year old canadian citizen pleaded guilty to terror related charges last year while another 19 year old american citizen is now awaiting extradition from pakistan to the united states. the third member of the group is a 37 year old philippine citizen, also awaiting extradition. he is thought to have been the financerof the plans which were to have been carried out between juneand july of 2016 to take place during the holy month of ramadan. one quote from encrypted conversations between the plotters,"we seriously need a car bomb, lots of people there" and "we just walkin with guns in our hands, that's how the paris guys did it." though the three have been in custody for some time, the revelations were delayeduntil authorities could complete their far flung investigation
