Number 3

Where did he go?
The thought crossed my mind listening to the news reports the morning after the latest terror attack.  There was no mention anymore of a 3rd shooter attacker.  The most I heard was a "person of interest" was shot and apprehended running away from the proximity of the SUV shootout.
I heard that question being posed by a talk radio host also.
But like most folks, out of sight/ out of mind and I semi-forgot about it, chalking it up to the witness error in the heat of tragedy.
Then I read this article today.  In my mind, the witnesses are too sure of what they saw, unlike some of the conspiracy theories around the Colorado theater shooting.
So why are we not hearing more about this?  I'd like to think the FBI is keeping it quiet for surveillance reasons, but after the fiasco of scene compromise at the home of the (known) attackers, I'm not too sure.
From some of the witness accounts, it sounded like 3 men, although dressed as they were, all of them being male is certainly open for dispute.
So what if...?
There were 3 men in the building and the wife stayed in the get-away car?
Where are the other two, then?  Back into hiding for the next opportune moment?  There was certainly time opportunity to part ways before the street shootout.
If that scenario is the case, are the authorities and media trying to keep a lid on it to prevent panic and hysteria?
Don't know and I guess time will tell.
I wonder if they got the extra insurance on the SUV when they rented it.

As a side note, a small bit of rare wisdom from Hollywood.  Don't know anything about Kurt Russel's political leanings, but he's right with these comments.

  1. Been wondering myself. While witnesses can be seriously iffy, it seemed that there were solid statements of 3 at first. And then a major crime scene was seriously contaminated. Seems more than a little odd.

  2. Ah, here: http://www.weaselzippers.us/244874-report-obama-told-nsc-and-fbi-to-downplay-terror-angle-of-san-bernardino-attack/

    Who here thinks that the current muslim admin would order the destruction of a crime scene that might have a muslim terrorist trail attached? Um, that would be me.
