Revelation 6:3-4 NCV When the Lamb opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, "Come!" Then another horse came out, a red one. Its rider was given power to take away peace (prosperity, rest) from the earth and to make people kill each other (butcher, slaughter, to maim violently, in streets), and he was given a big sword (assassins sword, terrorist, loud, mighty, sore afraid).
The FBI believes the husband and wife who killed 14 people in a rampage last week in southern California had both been radicalized “for quite some time,” authorities said Monday.
Speaking at a news conference in California, David Bowdich, the assistant director in charge of the bureau’s Los Angeles office, told reporters several new details regarding the San Bernardino mass shooting that the FBI had previously said is being investigated as an act of terrorism.
He said it’s still not clear how the shooters, Syed Rizwan Farook and Tashfeen Malik, became radicalized, and authorities were continuing to probe the shooting that also wounded 21 people.
Farook worked for the San Bernardino County Department of Public Health, which was hosting a holiday party at the Inland Regional Center at the time of the shooting. Police have said Farook left the party angrily and abruptly, then came back with Malik and the two opened fire.
Authorities have said there wasn’t any evidence Farook or Malik were part of a foreign terrorist organization, but investigators were vetting the possibility the suspects were inspired by one. Bowdich said there’s no currently evidence that the plot was hatched outside the United States.
Authorities had also said there was evidence of extensive planning associated with the attack.
Bowdich said the FBI now has evidence that both Farook and Malik engaged in target practice in metro Los Angeles, in one case within days of the shooting at the Inland Regional Center.
He also said that investigators removed 19 pipes from the couple’s home in Redlands, California. With the right components, Bowdich said those pipes could have been used to make bombs. Earlier, police put the number of “pipe-bomb-type devices” in the couple’s residence at 12.
Police have also said they recovered at least 4,500 rounds of ammunition from the home.
Bowdich said Monday that investigators have conducted more than 400 interviews in the five days since the shooting. They have collected more than 370 pieces of evidence and were using survey tools and technology to recreate the crime scene at the Inland Regional Center.
Bowdich also said authorities still aren’t sure if anyone else helped the couple plan the attack. That’s something investigators were still trying to determine on Monday. The FBI was working with its foreign counterparts to help compile a complete portrait of the shooters, Bowdich said.
“We will leave no stone unturned,” Bowdich told reporters at the news conference.
Hello, I quite agree that shooting spree that happened in, California were radicalized and that is a form of brain washing. It shouldn’t have never happened at all. George.
