Summary

Stephen Paddock, the 64-year-old millionaire blamed for killing 59 people and wounding 527 others in Las Vegas, doesn't fit the profile of a mass shooter. The retired accountant fired high-powered rifles from the windows of a suite on the 32nd floor of a hotel Sunday night. Nancy Grace digs into the questions surrounding the massacre with Brian Levin, director of the Center for the Study of Hate & Extremism, psycho analyst Dr. Bethany Marshall, forensics expert Joseph Scott Morgan and reporter Cheryl White. Nancy also looks at a disturbing case in Florida, where a teacher and 2 school administrators face charges after an investigation into the treatment of a boy with non-verbal autism. Northwest Florida Daily News reporters Heather Osbourne and Tom McLaughlin and the child's father Eddie Perillo discuss the case with Grace.
