looking for love, seeking a wife who would wear a hijab. he called himself a liberal, interested in snowboarding, working on cars and taking target practice in the backyard. his wife is a mystery to authorities, and it's not clear how they met. >> we don't know enough. we do not know enough. >> reporter: she came to the u.s. with him in 2014 from saudi arabia, on what's known as a fiance visa, and according to this marriage certificate, they married in riverside, california, in august of that year. when their daughter was born just six months ago, they registered for baby gifts, asking for pampers and an infant car seat. yet, on wednesday, they left all that behind, as farook took the wheel of the suv, rented just a few days earlier, and his wife sat in the back, firing dozens of rounds, as the police closed in and ultimately killed them both. >> the fbi is looking at connections between farook and

they held a late night news conference last night. what did the investigators reveal? >> reporter: they held one pretty late last night. governor jerry brown actually made an appearance and said that he believes that the state of california is working together best as possible, and he still guard. i thought that was an interesting point that he made. when it came to the investigators, they revealed nearly all of the victims were, in fact, county employees here which is not a surprise because it was a county training event with the department of public health. but still most of them appear to have been targeted, county employees, the people who weren't county workers, a couple of them, worked at a coffee house here. so that is so unfortunate. then of course, we heard from one of the first responders for the very first time. one of the first officers on the screen describing the heart break and carnage. he was even shaking.

all these victims, see the fear and unfortunately, bypass so many of the wounded because their first goal was to try and find that shooter. luckily more officers came on scene and he said he was able to let those officers go after the gunmen if they were still at the scene so he could help those who were wounded. >> that first responder saying they trained for the worst and this was much worse than they've trained for. brandi, thank you. >> reporter: he said you could smell the gun powder. if you can imagine how many shots had to be fired in order for you to smell that kind of gun powder. >> that's why he thought they were still there in that scene there because he could still smell it. it was still very fresh. brandi hitt, thank you. >> so many things about this attack that you don't realize from the outside till you hear these stories. >> it was really an emotional late night news conference. all 14 people killed have now been identified and those who made it out alive are recalling the horror. patrick baccari was sitting at the same table as farook but in
