first, let's take you live straight away to san bernardino in california. we will have a live update on the investigation into the deadly shooting their last week in which 14 people were shot entry into then make we will takes, and the items that can be seized under the scope of that warrants -- that is exactly what was done that day. leave the residence, we will hand the keys to the owners residence secure the if it was breached. we secured it with screws and left the premises.
2:32 pm
once the fbi and our local partners left that premises, anything that occurred as far as forced entry or anyone allowed inside that residents has nothing to do with us, whether they are let in by the residents or the landlord. i want to make that clear to maintain confidence in your law enforcement professionals. to clarify thent pot bomb components that were taken and some of the pipes and components of pipe bombs that were removed from the house on recall, weet. if you gave you a number of 12. i don't want to get too technical because i am not an expert on bombs, but we have al ofts who did remov devices from that house and out there it turns are 19 pipes in that house we have removed.
2:33 pm
somewhere in a bag. we are not going to unpack them one by one. they had to remove all of the components and take them out to a range and then they began to safely extract them from the bag , and safely pull them apart and count and photograph all of the components and ultimately submit them into our evidence. so, the number changed from 12 to 19. that is not 19 pipe bombs. that is 19 pipes that could be turned into pipe bombs if all of the components are there and present for them to actually be construed that way. to talk about the radicalization issue. many of you have concerns -- questions, rather -- did the female radicalize the mail in this case there are the answer is, we still do not know. i will say this. as the investigation has progressed, we have learned and believe both subjects were radicalized and had been for
2:34 pm
quite some time. how did that happen? the question we are trying to get at is how did that happen, by whom, and where did that happen? i will tell you right now, we do not know the answers at this point. the next thing, along those foreign contacts. we are working with our foreign counterparts to determine as much as we can. thate attempting to expand investigation out and build that picture of each person, the timeline, and ultimately the crimes they committed. that takes time. we are in day five. i want to recognize that. we are working with our foreign counterparts. we are working with the fbi's legal attache offices all over the world and they are assisting those efforts with our foreign counterparts. the next thing i want to mention has come up already -- yes, we have evidence both of these objectives participated in some rangesice in
2:35 pm
within the metro area or the los angeles area. that target practice on one occasion was done within days of this event. investigationhis i want to discuss very quickly -- this investigation is massive in scale. everyone knows that. we have conducted, i would say well over 400 interviews. of them have phoned you and said that they have been interviewed. that's what we do and we will continue to do as many interviews is necessary for this. finally, there have been questions about the total re-creation of the crime scene. what we are essentially doing is applying survey technology to the crime scene. when i'm talking about the crime scene, i'm talking about the initial crime scene at the irc
2:36 pm
where all of these victims were definite talking about the officer involved shooting. yes, we are still holding that location. we are continuing to be extremely methodical and we have those tools toly paint a picture of how and why everything transpired that day. we have collected over 320 pieces of evidence. we have transported that evidence, primarily to washington d c -- washington, lab. our crime the last thing before i open it up to questions, and then i will introduce some of my counterparts as well -- we have found evidence of planning, participation, financing. what i will tell you -- i'm sorry. we found evidence of
2:37 pm
preplanning. let me correct that. what i want to say is, i want to make sure the public wrists assured we are in a political organization and we will get to be bottom of this. we will find everyone who purchase of it in the preplanning -- if there was anyone else. we do not know yet. we want to find anyone who profited from it, financed it, and i'm not saying that there is anything like that, but we believe no stone unturned. just like i said in the past. the last thing, we have to remember, this is a human tragedy. this is truly a tragedy what occurred. we have brought out victims assistance personnel from washington and this is what they do. they are very familiar with this. we are going to, at some point, hopefully this week, meet with the family members of the victims -- both the decedents'
2:38 pm
victims and the injured victims. that is critically important so we can address them face-to-face and talk about our full commitment. if they do not want to meet us, that is their choice. if they do, we are there for them. very, very important. i will take a few questions. not as many as the other day. theid tashfeen malik fire first shot? a sense oft have control. i want to be crystal clear, we do not see any evidence of a outside of the continental u.s. plot. we may someday. i don't know. but right now we are looking at these two individuals and we are focusing on that. >> [indiscernible] sure if we are done questioning her yet. >> but you may? >> yes, ma'am. >> [indiscernible]

2:40 pm
years or months? that. we don't know we have some indications of timeline, but not enough for me to speak on. we believe that they both were. that is the question for us -- how and by whom and where were they radicalized? maybe there is not a right him. i don't want to speculate. -- maybe there is not a high whom -- by whom. >> [indiscernible] answerll ask the atf to my question. all things guns, hold your questions for the atf agent. they had interactions on social media of a man from minneapolis you been tracking. can you confirm that? >> i have heard those reports. i not going to confirm that at this point. i am not aware of the status. >> [indiscernible] discussnot prepared to
