As the country searches for answers in the wake of the Las Vegas massacre, new information has come to light about domestic terrorist Stephen Paddock by way of his neighbors and his own mother.
According to former neighbor Jorge Juertes, Stephen's mother had warned him about her son years ago when she lived next door to him in Dallas, TX.
"He wasn't very sociable," Jorge told the Fort Worth Star-Telegram of Stephen, pictured here decades earlier in his yearbook photo. "She his mother said he's a bad boy."
While Stephen would occasionally visit his mother, he did not interact with neighbors after he purchased the elderly woman's home in 2004, residents claimed, adding that they now thought back on the ways they may have made up angry.
As for Stephen's father, he was a notorious bank robber who escaped prison and lived on the run for ten years.
“We’d always have parties and now I’m thinking about how we could have made him mad,” another neighbor, Maria Almeida, told the outlet. “He’s crazy.”
Still, Stephen's brother struggles to understand how Stephen became a killer, describing him as "just a guy" who liked to gamble and eat burritos.
