When a young Queenslander travelled overseas to meet aunt Marilou Danley – and her partner for the first time – he was left with an impression of an ‘unremarkable’ man.
Little did Jordan Knights know that in a few short months, his aunt’s live-in partner Stephen Paddock would be responsible for the worst mass shooting in US history.
As he backpacked across America with his mother Amelia Manango, the two made a short stop in Las Vegas to meet his mother’s sister – Ms Danley.
After dining out together and splashing out at some of Vegas’ most famous casinos,the 23-year-old bid Paddock and Ms Danley farewell.
He told 9News on Tuesday that ‘it seemed like he just looked after my aunty and that was it’, and got no bad feelings from the man.
Paddock left no lasting impression on Mr Knights, and the young Aussie didn’t give his aunt’s partner another thought until Monday evening.
