$9,000 worth of jewelry days before attack Published June 21, 2016 FoxNews.com Facebook487 Twitter276 Email Print
The Orlando nightclub terrorist Omar Mateen reportedly brought nearly $9,000 worth of expensive jewelry less than a week before committing the worst mass shooting in U.S. history.
According to ABC News, Mateen made the purchase at a Kay Jewelers on June 6 in Jenson Beach. The store is located near the Lotus Gun Shop where Mateen was turned away after seeking to buy bulk ammunition and heavy-duty body armor.
Signet, which owns the jewelry store, didn’t confirm Mateen’s purchase but did say they were "working closely" with authorities in their investigation into the shooter.
Employees at the gun shop declined to sell Mateen anything after seeing him engage in suspicious behavior, The Wall Street Journal reported last week.
Robbie Abell, the Lotus Gun Shop’s co-owner, told The Journal that Mateen spoke on the phone in a Middle Eastern-sounding language and was repeatedly texting on his phone.
"[He] just seemed very odd,” Abell said. “The questions he was asking were not the normal questions a normal person would be asking."
"If something is suspicious, it’s our discretion,” Abell said. “We are the gatekeeper."

Excellent!
Probably not their next commercial.
That means it was actually worth about $2500.
ISIS money?
That $9k was immediately turned into, maybe, $900 as soon as he touched the receipt.
Lottery tickets are a smarter play. And I might add: they are easier to carry and don’t cause any alarm at customs.
(Jewelry is an utter scam.)

Agree 1000%, I would never accept “premium jewelry” from a guy, because it would show how bad he was with money. I would make it clear I felt this way before he bought anything in the first place. Jewelry is fine, as long as it is cheap, if you lose it, no big deal. I have even made my own using the part you can get a jo-anne fabrics!
He was trying to emulate the Liberace look?
and three plane tickets to....California
Well I’ll be darned. The News Cartel and the Sultan’s admin are not going to like this. Must be buried pronto. Note the lack of details to make it
harder to search for info about “the shooter”/”the gunman’s” boyfriends.
Should have added that maybe the Moslem Murderer was looking for
those guys amongst the crowd that night.
