.... CNN reported:
“Attorney General Loretta Lynch said Sunday that law enforcement will release limited transcripts Monday from the three phone calls that Orlando shooter Omar Mateen had with police.
“They will talk about what he told law enforcement on the ground as the events were unfolding,” Lynch told CNN’s Dana Bash on “State of the Union.”
The Justice Department says the FBI and Orlando authorities, in coordination with the U.S. Attorney’s office, are expected on Monday to release a limited transcript of conversations Mateen had with authorities during the shooting as well as a timeline.
“He talked about his pledges of allegiance to a terrorist group. He talked about his motivations for why he was claiming at that time he was committing this horrific act. He talked about American policy in some ways,” Lynch said. In one of the call he pledged allegiance to ISIS, authorities have said.
“The reason why we’re going to limit these transcripts is to avoid re-victimizing those people that went through this horror. But it will contain the substance of his conversations,” she said.

Why not just overdub with “ISIL”?
What about civil suits against the OPD, FSP, BATFE, FBI. DHS etc.?
This is a massive scandal because the father was involved and the Obama administration was friendly to him, and his family committed the worst terror attack since 9-11 right under their noses. Things are happening quickly this is getting really serious.
I refer to them as BuFuMoBro.
Yes it’s a cover up and I’m wondering does Trump have the ability to capitalize on this quickly.
“You can’t handle the truth!”
=
“We think you are idiot children.”
Then the audio would come out in discovery, would it not? IANAL, nor do I play one on TV, nor did I stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night.
But, again, there’s nothing to affect an ongoing criminal investigation.
Trump has to file FOIA lawsuit in Federal Court on this. This is Fraud.
0bama had a way of leaking sealed court records. The system is rife with corruption. Maybe the National Enquirer could make some full data available?
Uh, the perp is DEAD! The popos are investigating him for what? Or are they going after his support network on a criminal basis. If so, the details (no matter how tenuous) leading to them would be germane.
The truth is so much more inconvenient than what they WANT you to believe.
That’s why Lynch is personally traveling to Florida
exactly. The local or has a recording. Any family member of the fallen can sue to get it.
Unbelievable. The level of corruption in the rainbow house and DOJ has reached epic proportions. The damage that has already been done will probably never be fully corrected.
But this also helps Trump because he can use it as an example to gay voters that Obama is actively protecting those who want to kill them and Hillary will be doing the same.
TRANSCRIPT: News 13 producer talks about phone call with Mateen
Last Updated: Wednesday, June 15, 2016, 1:28 PM
Here is the full transcript of News 13 reporter Scott Fais’ interview with station producer Matt Gentili about an ominous phone call he took at the TV station the night of the Pulse nightclub shooting.
FULL COVERAGE: Pulse nightclub shooting
Matthew Gentili: “I’m the senior producer, on the weekend mornings, I’m the only person here from 1-3, and I’m — you know, deciding what stories we’re doing for the day, writing up — basically producing the entire show and getting everything ready ahead of time for our anchors and our EP’s the come in.”
Interviewer: “Walk me through Sunday morning.”
Matthew Gentili: “Sunday morning I came in at 1 in the morning, said hi to the police officer on duty in the parking lot and you know, it’s just a regular day. We had a shooting on Saturday of Christina Grimmie, it was very tragic and coming in I knew I had a lot to do to put on a good show for the morning show and around 2 a.m. I started hearing some things over the scanners. I’m not very familiar with the “police speak” down here in Orlando, so I was hearing codes and stuff like that and I didn’t really know quite what they were. But between 2 and 2:30, it really started ramping up. I started hearing calls over the scanners of one victim shot in the head, another victim shot in the back, so I knew that something was going on-a shooting. Didn’t know how serious it was until I started receiving phone calls from viewers that were very helpful and helping me determine, like, how serious things were getting. My first viewer phone call was about 2:31, and it was a man who was telling me that there were two people shot on Orange and Michigan and later finding out where the shooting was I’m not sure if that was really close in the vicinity to where it was, to Pulse nightclub, but at that time I just assumed that we had a shooting in Orlando and at least two victims.”
“It was at 2:45 when I had just received the phone call of someone claiming to be the Orlando shooter. I answered the phone as I always do, ‘News 13 this is Matt,’ and on the other end I heard, ‘Do you know about the shooting?’ and I said ‘Yup, I’m getting information — I’m receiving some calls right now’ and he cut me off and said, ‘I’m the shooter.’ I didn’t know what to say, it was alarming to say the least. He sounded really calm on the phone and he started saying that he did it for the Islamic State — he did it for ISIS, and then he started speaking in a foreign language which at the time, being in Orlando, I thought it was maybe Spanish. But he was speaking so fast I didn’t know what it was, and thinking back now it was most likely Arabic, that he was speaking. I said ‘Sir, sir can you please speak in English?’ and then he started saying ‘I did it for ISIS, I did it for the Islamic State’ again. I didn’t know what to say to him. I was just blown away, and I asked him ‘Who is this? Where are you?’ and he told me that’s none of my effing business. He wouldn’t tell me who he was, he wouldn’t tell me where he was, but he wanted me to know that he did this for ISIS, he did this shooting for the Islamic State.”
Interviewer: “At that point, how did the conversation end?”
Matthew Gentili: “The conversation ended with me asking him, ‘Is there anything that you want to say, other than you did it for ISIS?’ and then he said no and hung up the phone, and that was it.
Interviewer: “What did you hear in the background? Did you hear anything in the background?
Matthew Gentili: “You know, when I think back, it’s really surprising, I heard nothing- I heard silence. I feel like if I would have heard sirens or anything in the background it would have been more telling to me, that, you know- how severe this call really was and I heard nothing, I heard nothing on the other end except from him.”
Interviewer: “What did you proceed to do next?”
Matthew Gentili: “Next, I received another call after that, from another viewer and this is when I realized that the call I just received prior was very serious. A viewer told me that a man shot up Pulse nightclub with an AK-47 and there were 20 people at least, dead. That’s when I started calling in April, our executive producer on the weekends. I started calling whoever I could get in touch with to get people in. After that, I tried reaching out to police and their non-emergency line was busy I’m sure with as many calls as they got. That was it.”
Interviewer: “So what were you feeling, let’s say emotionally?”
Matthew Gentili: “Emotionally, I knew it was very serious, so all I felt was the adrenaline and the pressure of knowing that there was a potential terrorist attack and at the time it was an active shooting, like he was actively out there, so I was just worried for everyone out there and I was worried even for the crew that was coming in to the station because I realized how close our station is to the vicinity, I mean within a mile and a half from Pulse nightclub.”
“I don’t really know, I was just more wanting to know if it really was him. When we finally found out that the shooter was from Port St. Lucie, I had previously in the morning done an area code check for the number that I got, and it had matched that area code. That’s when I knew, like oh my God, that was real, that was really him, that was a real call. That was just shocking. I mean, in news, every time I pick up the phone I know that potentially on the other line it could be someone calling about a serious story or an emergency, and when you get someone calling and wanting to tell you why they did a shooting, it’s just … crazy. There’s no other way to put it into words.”

Think they are just looking for terrorists that are not on the government payroll. If you work for Uncle Sammy or one of his contractors, no worries.
Our administration is Satanic. Pure evil.
Good for you. Please share, here. You are a very cool dude.
Ah, yes, and the media are right on the case, aren’t they? No? Don’t I remember a President Nixon being hounded out of office for an eight-minute gap in tapes in a case where nobody died? Here we have 49 people dead and a total stonewall on the part of the administration, and the media are sitting there nodding and panting like lap dogs. What the hell has happened to my country?
