5A THE DAILY ASTORIAN • WEDNESDAY, JUNE 15, 2016 Authorities try to piece together Orlando killer’s movements Wife might have known about attack By JAY REEVES and ERIC TUCKER Associated Press ORLANDO, Fla. — Omar Mateen drove around the Orlando area the night before the nightclub massacre, visit- ing several places, the mayor said Wednesday as investi- gators tried to piece together the killer’s movements and zeroed in on how much his wife may have known about the plot. An oficial who was briefed on the case but insisted on anonymity to dis- cuss a continuing investiga- tion said authorities believe the wife, Noor Salman, knew ahead of time about the plans for the attack that left 49 vic- tims dead, but they are reluc- tant to charge her on that basis alone. Investigators have spoken extensively with her and are working to establish whether she recently accompanied Mateen to the Pulse club, said a second oficial who was not authorized to discuss the case publicly. The oficial said investigators have not ruled out charging others, including Salman. The FBI has recovered Mateen’s phone and will AP Photo/David Goldman Balloons are left at a makeshift memorial near the scene of the mass shooting of the Pulse nightclub in Orlando, Fla. use location data to verify whether he previously vis- ited the club, the oficial said. Orlando is nearly a two-hour drive from Mateen’s home in Fort Pierce, Florida. Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer said Mateen drove around on Saturday night before he opened ire at the gay nightclub about 2 a.m. Sunday in an attack that ended with the 29-year-old Ameri- can-born Muslim being killed by a police SWAT team. “What I know concretely is that he was driving around that evening and visited sev- eral locations,” Dyer said. When asked exactly where Mateen visited, and whether the locations included theme parks as reported in news accounts, Dyer said, “I think it’s been pretty accurately depicted on the news.” He gave no further details. A survivor of the mas- sacre, 20-year-old Patience Carter, shed more light on Mateen’s thinking, saying he talked about wanting America to “stop bombing my country” — a possible reference to his father’s native Afghanistan. A number of possible motives and explanations have emerged, with Mateen calling 911 to profess alle- giance to the Islamic State group, his ex-wife saying he was mentally ill and his father suggesting he hated gays. On Tuesday, the picture grew more complex when a U.S. oficial said the FBI was looking into a lurry of news reports quoting people as say- ing Mateen frequented the nightspot and reached out to men on gay dating apps. The oficial was not authorized to discuss the investigation and also spoke on condition of anonymity. Some psychologists raised the possibility that Mateen was sexually conlicted and lashed out, or else was cas- ing the nightclub and trying to ind potential victims online. Mateen’s father, Seddique Mateen, denied his son was gay and said that if he had been in the nightclub before, he may have been “scouting the place.” Mateen’s ex-wife, Sitora Yusuiy, said earlier in the week that he was mentally ill and abusive. Amid the lat- est reports about his club-go- ing, she told CNN: “Well, when we had gotten married, he confessed to me about his past that was recent at that time and that he very much enjoyed going to clubs and the nightlife and there was a lot of pictures of him.” “I feel like it’s a side of him or a part of him that he lived but probably didn’t want everybody to know about,” she said. Tucker reported from Washington. Associated Press writers Allen G. Breed, Mike Schneider and Tamara Lush in Orlando; Holbrook Mohr in Port St. Lucie, Florida; and Lindsey Tanner in Chicago, contributed to this report.
