Back in August, Malia Obama was having the time in her life at Lollapalooza, but things may have turned out for the worst for the former first daughter if the Las Vegas gunman Stephen Paddock had his way. It was revealed that Stephen, who has been labeled as the person behind the deadliest shooting in US history, had booked more than one room in August that overlooked the major concert held in Chicago.
