If anyone has strange accounts from the night of the Vegas massacre I’d love to include as much as possible, so please post here. I’m looking through Kimberley Suchomel’s Facebook posts now

I’m writing up my research on the San Bernardino and Las Vegas massacres, and I’ll be putting it out there probably as an Amazon book. If you’re one of those who has posted a bunch of stuff (you know who you are) I highly recommend this, I’ll buy your book, promote it etc
