Stephen Paddock was found with his brains blown out in his Las Vegas hotel room — but authorities say the writing revealed in this bombshell composite photo wasn't a suicide note, and the psycho had more targets planned!

The disturbing news comes just as Sheriff Joe Lombardo of Nevada said in a press conference that police believe Paddock "had some help" in planning the worst mass shooting in American history. When asked about the note seen in crime scene photos, Lombardo first said he "can’t recall" anything about Paddock's final writings — but then added: “It was not a suicide note. I am comfortable in saying that.”

Lombardo also said that he believed that Paddock had made plans to escape and carry on his reign of terror — just as evidence emerged that a man with the same name had booked a hotel room overlooking the crowd at the Lollapalooza music festival in Chicago attended by Malia Obama. Lombardo said, "I can't tell you" when asked what evidence he had seen, but the statement comes as others question if Paddock committed suicide. [GRAPHIC PHOTO FOLLOWS...]

As seen in this crime scene photo, police found Paddock dead on the floor of his Mandalay Bay suite — but now insiders are questioning if the shot that took his life was intentional. Many cite the blood stains on Paddock's chest, as weaponry experts Thomas Wictor speculated that Paddock accidentally shot himself while gathering his guns as police prepared to raid his hotel room.

Additional reports show that searches revealed that Paddock had also done internet searches on two locations in Boston, including Fenway Park and the Boston Center for the Arts. "What we know," said Lombardo, "is that Stephen Paddock is a man who spent decades acquiring weapons and ammo and living a secret life — much of which will never be fully understood."
