The girlfriend of the Las Vegas gunman who killed 58 people and himself in the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history was questioned by the FBI on Wednesday and said she had no idea he was “planning violence against anyone.”
Marilou Danley, who returned late on Tuesday from a family visit to the Philippines and is regarded by investigators as a “person of interest,” said through a lawyer that the carnage Stephen Paddock unleashed while she was abroad caught her completely unaware.
“He never said anything to me or took any action that I was aware of that I understood in any way to be a warning that something horrible like this was going to happen,” Danley, 62, said in a written statement read to reporters by her attorney in Los Angeles, where the FBI was questioning her.
She also claims that she thought he sent her to the Philippines via a cheap ticket two weeks ago and sent her $100,000 in order to break up with her.
He suggested she visit her family, something she was happy to do, but that the gesture was 'out of the blue', she claimed.
She added that when he wired the $100,000 to her after a week during her stay there, she began to worry that he was trying to break up with her, she said.
