      In fact, the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history took place during the Trump era. In October 2017, a gunman shot and killed nearly 60 people at a music festival in Las Vegas. While not an exhaustive list of every mass shooting that took place during the Trump administration, here are some of the deadliest incidents while Trump was in office:
      In November 2017, 26 people were killed at a church in Sutherland Springs, Texas.
      In February 2018, 17 people were killed at a high school in Parkland, Florida.
      In May 2018, 10 people were killed at a high school in Santa Fe, Texas.
      In October 2018, 11 people were killed at a synagogue in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
      In November 2018, 12 people were killed at a restaurant in Thousand Oaks, California.
      In May 2019, 12 people were shot and killed at an office building in Virginia Beach, Virginia.
      In August 2019, 22 people were killed at a Walmart in El Paso, Texas.

    Something like > what's the status of the investigation?..is there anything you can tell us?
    Basic stuff, ya know.....
    Also....just observations > a ) How long between the murder and when this news team showed up ???? That was a pretty clean & quiet crime scene...more leaves had fallen.
    b ) When the video showed the area of the lawn where the body was found I noticed a discarded water bottle on the lawn....so : some time has passed before this news team showed up OR the police missed a very important piece of evidence (I hope not).
