The massacre by Syed Rizwan Farook, 28, the U.S.-born son of Pakistani immigrants, and Tashfeen Malik, 29, a Pakistani native he married in Saudi Arabia past year, has heightened security concerns in the United States and has become an issue in the US presidential campaign.
There were a lot of images of schools from the San Bernardino area found on Farook’s phone, but this isn’t a reason strong enough to believe that they were planning a bigger attack. The fifth wasn’t arrested and hasn’t been identified.
The number of organisations that Malik attempted to approach and how she sought to reach them were unclear, though the groups nearly certainly included Al-Qaeda’s Syria-based official affiliate, the Nusrah Front, the government sources said.
FBI Director James Comey told the Senate Judiciary Committee a day earlier that the two shooters were radicalized well before Malik came to the US on a fiancée visa and they had discussed jihad and martyrdom as early as 2013.
Agents are also concerned that his mental and emotional state may affect what he has been telling interrogators, the source said. Twenty-one people were also wounded in the attack.
Marquez legally bought two of the guns used in the attack.
Marquez claims he knew nothing about the San Bernardino shootings.
Bowdich has refused to provide details about Marquez. Investigators are looking into whether this was a sham marriage for immigration purposes. His credibility has been questioned, however, as law enforcement officials believe he may be embellishing what he knows in a bid for leniency. “He was my right hand around the house”, she said after requesting that journalists turn off their cameras before she would speak.
A member of the FBI investigates a lake in San Bernardino for evidence related to the deadly mass shooting carried out by a local married couple.
The two men were listed as witnesses on the marriage licence when Farook’s brother, Raheel, Wednesday a Russian woman in 2011. According to California marriage records, she married Farook just one month later.
Asked if Malik was radicalized before she entered the United States, Comey replied: “So far, it looks like she was…she was before she connected with the other killer”.
Marquez has told investigators he didn’t know about the plans for the San Bernardino shooting attack.
The picture that’s emerging of the 24-year-old Walmart clerk who supplied some of the weapons used in the mass shooting at a social services center, is of a quiet, awkward, and sometimes lonely man.
“They say the system has all these fail-safes”, Salmon said.
A law enforcement declined to specify what the divers were seeking. The official wasn’t authorized to speak by name about an ongoing investigation and spoke on condition of anonymity.

A mosque member who met Marquez says he seemed to be searching for direction, was exploring Islam and later said he wanted to convert to Buddhism. All loans originated through the Prosper platform are subject to all identity verification and screening procedures required by law, including U.S. anti-terrorism and anti-money laundering laws. The male shooter planned an attack in 2012 with a former neighbor before abandoning the idea.
