I mentioned yesterday that the Vegas Massacre shooter’s brother, Eric Paddock, keeps talking to the media, each interview seeming more frantic than the next.
He has said that he did not know his brother very well, but that this is completely shocking to him.
It turns out that his family has a very long history of crime.
As reported, their father was on the FBI’s 10 Most Wanted list for being a notorious bank robber who escaped from prison.
Their OTHER brother, Bruce Paddock, also has quite the rap sheet…
The younger brother of Stephen Paddock has a rap sheet of a hardened criminal … light-years different from the brother who slaughtered dozens of innocent people.
Bruce Paddock currently lives in California, but he’s led a nomadic life. TMZ has pulled court docs which show he’s been a regular in the criminal justice system. Among his arrests …
— Criminal threats
— Arson
— Vandalism
— Petty theft
— Burglary
— Weed
— Driving on a suspended license
— Contempt
It’s unclear how many of these resulted in convictions. We know for sure the 57-year-old was convicted of petty theft with a prior, and vandalism.
Could this have something to do with why the other brother keeps talking to the media? Is he trying to differentiate himself from all the shady members of this family?
This is NOT your average “crime-free” hunky-dory family at this point. That much is for sure.
