During a Tuesday evening update, Undersheriff Kevin McMahill sounded weary as he addressed sourced reports that Paddock had wired money overseas and had recently been gambling to the tune of $10,000 per day .
"I understand in the insatiable appetite of the media that you want some answers, but I'm going to make it very clear to you that I need some patience.

That's going to take time, and that's why we're going to take that time."
