The deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history seems to be populated by professional actors.
First, Luis Burbano, a much-interviewed eyewitness who claims to have been in the Orlando gay nightclub, Pulse, at the time of the shooting, turns out to be a professional actor.
Burbano’s profile on the Internet Movie Database (IMDb) lists 5 acting credits under “Filmography,” the most recent one being his role as a “club patron” in a 2015 music video called — I’m not making this up — “Spirit of Orlando: Shooting Up”.
A day after I took the screenshot of Burbano’s acting credits on IMDb, his “Spirit of Orlando: Shooting Up” acting was deleted by IMDb. Below is the screenshot I took yesterday, June 15, 2016, showing Burbano’s full acting credits.
Now, it turns out the shooter himself, 29-year-old Omar Mateen, also had acting experience.
