The FBI said earlier Monday it believes both suspects in last week’s attack in San Bernardino, were radicalized before carrying out the mass shooting. “We have learned and believe that both subjects were radicalized and have been for quite some time,” said David Bowdich, assistant director of the FBI’s field office in Los Angeles:

[…] On or about Nov.20, Fox News is told Farook converted $10,000 to cash, and withdrew the money at a Union Bank branch in San Bernardino. Afterwards, in the days before the shooting, there were at least three transfers of $5,000 that appear to be to Farook’s mother.

The December 2 attack in San Bernardino was executed by a married couple, parents of a six-month-old girl. The Federal Bureau of Investigation now says they had been radicalized “for quite some time.”

They were killed in a shootout with police hours after the attack. The couple had left their infant daughter with Farook’s mother before the attack, according to a relative.
