De broer van de Las Vegas schutter reageert op de hele gebeurtenis. Zo vertelt hij:“We are completely dumbfounded. We can’t understand what happened.”
Waarom zijn broer dit heeft gedaan kan hij zelf ook niet verklaren: “He’s never even drawn his gun before. He’s just a guy. It’s like an asteroid just fell on top of our family. He had no machine guns when I moved him to Mesquite. Find out who he bought the machine guns from.”
Volgens de broer zou er geen financiële reden zijn voor de daad van zijn broer:“There is no reason we can imagine why Stephen would do something like this. All we can do is send our condolences to the people who died. Just no reason, no warning. As far as we knew, he had enough money to live out the rest of his life in comfort.”
