http://www.g4s.us/en-US/Resources/News/2016/06/13/G4S%20plc%20%20Statement%20on%20attack%20in%20Orlando%20Florida/

G4S website page with official statements about Mateen. The latest is dated June 13. And I quote (copied for posterity):

“5:15 a.m. (EDT) June 13, 2016
G4S is deeply shocked by the tragic events in Orlando this weekend and the thoughts of everyone at G4S are with the victims and their families.

Omar Mateen was employed by G4S at a residential community in South Florida and was off-duty at the time of the incident. Mateen was subject to detailed company screening when he was recruited in 2007 and re-screened in 2013 with no adverse findings. He was also subject to checks by a U.S. law enforcement agency with no findings reported to G4S.

G4S is providing its full support to all law enforcement authorities in the USA as they conduct their investigations.”


Time for an updated statement, G4S.

About those GS4 statements. Another one:

".....40 p.m. (EDT) June 13, 2016
G4S notes the statement today by FBI Director James Comey that agents investigated Omar Mateen in 2013 and 2014 and closed their investigations after deciding that no further action was necessary.

G4S also notes the comments by a former employee, Daniel Gilroy. G4S has no record of any complaint by Mr. Gilroy about Mr. Mateen. And further, Mr. Gilroy is on record on June 2015, shortly after leaving G4S, as saying, “The work and job assignments were respectful and co-workers were good men and women that put in an honest day’s work and genuinely like to work as a team and contribute.”....."

BUT:

“....The FBI’s Ronald Hopper said Mateen first drew the agency's attention in 2013, when he made “inflammatory comments” to co-workers about having ties to terrorism.

FBI Director James Comey said that at the time, Mateen was working as a contract security guard at a local courthouse. He told his co-workers he had ties to al-Qaida and Hezbollah and that he hoped police would kill his wife and child so he could martyr himself.

“In the course of the investigation, Mateen was interviewed twice,” Hopper said. According to Comey, Mateen told them he made the comments out of anger because he thought his [unnamed] co-workers were teasing him about being a Muslim.

The investigation was closed after 10 months.....” (**source link below)

So the whackedhut would have us believe since they have no record of a complaint by Mr Gilroy, charges of inflammatory comments are simply not true even though Comey confirmed such comments.

G4S needs to go back to being known as Whackedhut.
