A laptop computer recovered from the Las Vegas hotel room where Stephen Paddock launched the deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history was missing its hard drive, depriving investigators of a potential key source of information on why he killed and maimed so many people, ABC News has learned.
Paddock is believed to have removed the hard drive before fatally shooting himself, and the missing device has not yet been recovered, sources told ABC News.

(16,072 posts)Paddock tossed the hard drive out the window! It was night and dark, no one at the time was even thinking about checking the laptop for its hard drive until they got all the evidence to the lab...and even then they were probably more concerned with the weapons and other items they had!
By the time they got to the laptop and discovered the missing hard drive, the area had probably been cleaned by landscapers and house cleaning crews...to them it was all garbage and debris!
If he didn't hide it somewhere in the room, then there's a good chance that it's in a landfill outside of Las Vegas!
Just a theory!!!
