| 2016-06-20 |
| [ABC] Omar Mateen bought nearly $9,000 worth of jewelry less than a week before he killed 49 people at the Pulse nightclub in Orlando, Florida, ABC News has learned. The purchase was made June 6 at the Kay Jewelers in Jensen Beach, Florida, which is near the Lotus Gun Shop where Mateen attempted to buy body armor. Signet, which owns Kay Jewelers, would not confirm the purchase by Mateen, but issued a statement that they are "working closely with the authorities." Shooter's wife had difficulty understanding things. |

| #3 Problem with jewelry is that it's not worth anything used. Rare coins are much easier to turn back into cash. Bitcoin is also a great option. I'm guessing the jewelry was more of a good bye gift. |

| #2 Prepay. 1/2 up front, 1/2 when it's over. Shipping jewelry offshore is easier for the wife than $10k of undeclared cash. |
