#2 Early Saturday I heard a slightly different report, that the man was too distraught to talk to investigators.

#6 The FBI has not said what it was looking for in a raid early Saturday at the home next door...

Whatever it was, they won't find it.

#8 My understanding is the FBI found a butt load of ammo and a "stockpile" of weapons in the house in Redlands.

I bet there are more people out there like this guy, buying a weapon as a favor for a friend.

I guess this is how ole Farook stayed dark on the law enforcement radar.

#9 Friends and family are at the "we disavow any knowledge of his actions" phase of the operation.

Still this bit was from 3 years ago, and before Farook & wife met. I wonder if loony-bin guy, having done a longtime friend a solid back in the day, is now shocked and suicidal at the eventual result. Who knows? Who cares?

The FBI will absolutely prosecute the gun as a straw purchase.

#10 Should be tried as an accomplice to let other straw purchasers know how serious this shit is.
