PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla., June 22 (Reuters) - On the morning before the massacre at Orlando's Pulse gay nightclub, shooter Omar Mateen drastically altered his appearance, shaving his head and face, and seemed agitated and surly, said an acquaintance who saw him that day.
Mateen also talked about staying up all night to do online research into anti-psychosis medication, the acquaintance said in a interview. The acquaintance requested anonymity, saying authorities had asked him to keep quiet.
The 29-year-old gunman, who killed 49 people and wounded 53 in the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history, called himself an "Islamic soldier" and pledged allegiance to the Islamic State militant group before being fatally shot by police after a three-hour siege.
The FBI would not comment on the acquaintance's remarks, but several senior U.S. sources told Reuters the investigation was moving more toward the belief that Mateen's motives were personal rather than political....

“Only copy of full death certificate I have seen-the others have been cut off at the bottom
Bare bones only. No time or cause of death”
I don’t know if this really is his death certificate, but here is general information on Florida d.c.’s.
You still haven’t seen a “full” d.c. This is the “public” version of a d.c., with no cause of death, manner of death, or injury information listed. Only next of kin and court orders and certain others can get a Florida full death certificate, the rest is confidential by Florida law. “In Florida, anyone may order a Florida Death Certificate “Without cause of death”.” http://www.floridahealth.gov/certificates/certificates/death/
And time of death IS listed on this d.c.—it’s a code entry, 9999, for “unknown.”
Race is chosen by next of kin or whoever legally gives the funeral director the dead person’s data.
Thanks for the clarifications. :)
