How do DEA investigations, child porn, Las Vegas, the Philippines and shadily connected millionaires transferring lots of cash before shooting sprees all fit together?
Steven Paddock owned a company that the media is not reporting on at all called "Paradise Ranch", a joint venture with.. Wait for it...
The Philippine Children’s Fund of America.
Another convenient "children's adoption/welfare" connection my ass. How am I not surprised to find another link to pedo-gate in all of this?
PCFA a CA charity that “Provides a transitional home for American children we fly from the Philippines“.
The business is listed here:

Possible links to trafficing might explain those hundreds of thousand of dollars in transfer to the fund before the shooting.

Some keep saying Paradise Ranch is not connected. I looked into it right at the beginning and was immediately down voated and attacked for my comment. I still believe it. I keep hearing it is somewhere else. It does not belong to him, He is just the manager, etc. You are doing a good job connecting and researching. Will get back to this tomorrow. Time for sleep.

I looked into it too and cannot find a link between the two.

It's very confusing. Why is there a seat at Corporate Circle and one at Howard Hughes? What does seat mean or imply? Pretty fancy talk for a Ranch that has no connections anywhere else. I am willing to say that maybe the LV ranch has no connection to another Paradise Ranch here in the US, because that is a pretty common name really. But, I still think we can admit that there are ties to VA and the Philippines. The GF Marilou has ties to Phil. and Australia, so why even use her, I have read that she is really not his GF as well. Btw, Where is Marilou, have not heard anything about her or her where abouts.

I've found that the Corporate Circle and Howard Hughes addresses are the addresses of the "Registered Agent". Basically there are companies like Incorp and CT Corporation Solutions, etc. that have offices all over the county and offer services where people can pay to use their local office address on their business filings.
It has a two-fold effect of 1) obfuscating the actual physical location of the officer/manager/member and 2) providing an in-state mailing address. Lots of these entities get revoked for failing to maintain an in-state address. While these services are legal they are often criticized for their use by criminal organizations and to create layers upon layers of shell companies to hide the true identity/identities of the principal officers, like what was seen in the Panama Papers.
When I looked into Paradise Ranch, there are 25 entities with a handful of different officer names. Tracing those names in Nevada alone will bring you to Traverse Village 1-25, LVABP 1-22, The Ridges at Paradise Ranch 1, 2, I, II, Buffalo Investment 1-9, Brittmoore Industrial Center 1-13, Pinehurst Apartments 1-12, Magnolia Center 1-22, Traverse Point Apartment 1-12, Gateway Plaza 1-15, North Branch Outlets 1-21, The Ridges III 1-14, and some one-offs like LVMB Traverse Village Sponsor, LVMP Traverse Village Development, LVMP Paradise Ranch Village.
Tracing the Mesquite Central Part Apartments/Southwind Festival Apartments in Texas showed up a literally 75% of the same exact names.
The majority of these entities have a status of Permanently Revoked/Revoked/Dissolved. It seems like the same "core" group will register a bunch of entities (often numbering them 1-whatever so that if you were to look at something like Corp Wiki, it doesn't really see the entities as connected because they are each in different names), but they they don't really do any business and eventually their biz license gets revoked, and then they just register a bunch more and continue the cycle.
Personally I haven't seen anything connecting concretely w/ the Philippines but almost everyone connects back to Manhattan Beach, CA and to an extent, the Greater Los Angeles area in general. There are also a TON of connected Delaware entities but I don't have LexisNexis or anything to get that info.

What do you think is the purpose of this "operation"? Very odd indeed. I remember a while back we were researching offices and places all over the country, I believe names Joe's or Joseph's Pizza. I believe when checked they were doctor's offices, lawyers offices, etc anything but a pizza place. Possibly some kind of shell operation. Very confusing and perplexing. I am going to ask about this from @Jem777 @millennial_vulcan @fogdryer @srayzie I know @quantokitty was involved in researching that other thread too, but have not heard from her lately. Will check in.

Check this out. Jake Morphonios (one of my favs) has been covering Pizzagate/pedogate for a long time. Lately he's become one of the best researchers on the LV shooting. He's making connections.
