It’s been nearly two months since the Las Vegas Massacre, and we know as little today as we knew then.
I’m starting to feel like we may never get any answers. I also feel like there’s a lot they’re not telling us…
Any time people don’t have answers they’ll begin to make up conspiracy theories… and the theories about the LV shooting are rampant.
While the following story may spark some theories, I’m not telling you all about it for that reason…. I’m writing about it because it’s newsworthy, and really sad.
According to Daily Mail, a number of survivors from the Las Vegas Massacre have now died for completely unrelated causes:
A 52-year-old man has become the third Las Vegas massacre survivor to die in a crash just weeks after the deadly mass shooting.
Roy McClellan was mowed down and killed in the hit and run while hitchhiking just outside of Las Vegas on State Route 160 in Pahrump, Nevada, on November 17.
His death occurred just over a month after California couple Dennis and Lorraine Carver were killed when their vehicle crashed outside their gated community in Riverside County, California bursting into flames, on October 16.
All three had survived the deadliest mass shooting in recent US history on October 1, when Stephen Paddock had opened fire from his Vegas hotel room on concertgoers at the Route 91 Harvest Music Festival below, leaving 58 dead and hundreds more injured.
As is to be imagined, this is especially hard on his wife, knowing he was spared from the horrific Vegas attack only to die a few short weeks later.
McClellan’s wife Denise, of Las Vegas, told KSNV that she doesn’t understand why both things had to happen to him.
‘I don’t understand why he wasn’t taken at the shooting, but a month later he was taken this way,’ Denise McClellan told the news station.
‘I hope my husband found peace and he’s safe now.’
The widow said the Vegas shooting was ‘really messing’ with her husband, and caused him to start going go therapy. She wrote on Facebook that prior to the fatal accident Roy had ‘stormed off’ after a fight with his friend.
The person who hit him fled the scene, leaving his body by the side of the road.
Police have located the car thought to be involved with the accident, and charges are pending, according to KSNV.
Speaking to the network Denise said she is consumed with anger that her husband’s lifeless body was just left on the side of the road.
‘I’m angry. I feel that he was under the influence of something or drunk and didn’t want to get caught, so he bailed and left my husband laying there in the street,’ she said.
‘He doesn’t deserve that.’
Another couple who survived the shooting was also killed in a crash:
Meanwhile, the Carver’s 20-year-old daughter Brooke said her parents had grown even closer following the shooting.
During the onslaught, her father, 52, is said to have jumped on top of his wife, 53, to shield her from the bullets.‘After the shooting, they heard from all of the people they cared about most. They were so happy,’ Brooke, told the Las Vegas Review Journal.
‘We were so relieved when they got out of the shooting alive,’ Brooke said. ‘But I also think we’ve been given little pieces of them that we would’ve never gotten if the shooting hadn’t happened right before they died.
‘The last two weeks of their lives were really just spent living in the moment.’According to the couple’s younger daughter, Madison, 16, there was a loud bang outside of her window on October 16.
When she ran down the street to see the source of the noise she saw her parents car engulfed in flames.
The pair died together, less than half a mile from their home.
So heartbroken for their families.
I cannot imagine how they must be feeling right now.
