Eric Paddock is a name that is often associated with the tragic events that took place in Las Vegas in 2017, when his brother, Stephen Paddock, carried out a mass shooting that resulted in the deaths of 58 people. Eric Paddock has since become known as the brother of the perpetrator, and has been thrust into the public eye as a result of the tragedy.
