In January 2018 , an associate recorded Loomer riding the service elevator that Stephen Paddock had used to transport numerous firearms used in the 2017 Las Vegas shooting . Loomer rode the elevator from the ground floor to the 32nd floor four times without permission of the hotel and was not engaged by Mandalay Bay hotel security . Wynn had previously said , " No public person has ever ridden a service elevator ( at a Wynn property ) unless they were accompanied by security . " After the May 2018 Santa Fe High School shooting , Loomer implied on Twitter that the tragedy was actually staged , prompting concerns about the spread of misleading information and conspiracy theories by troll farms and social bots . In July 2018 , Loomer promoted the false narrative that a man arrested with bomb-making equipment and illegal weapons had been a " leftist antifa terrorist " . The individual in question was instead a conservative whose Facebook profile was filled with pro-Second Amendment memes
