the pulse nightclub massacre, terrorist omar mateen's father was an fbi informant for 11 years and they wanted omar to be one too. how could the fbi be so close but missed the warning signs? joining me special agent chad jenkins. thank you for joining us. >> absolutely. heather: you say the fbi did its job correctly, trying to recruit omar mateen on top of his father being recruited for 11 years. why do you think they took the appropriate action? >> if you look at the investigative techniques the fbi agent did in 2013 where there was an open investigation of omar mateen, he exhausted every investigative technique in his power under the fbi's dialogue, the rules that fbi agents have to stay within. he exhausted all those investigative techniques. they were not gleaning getting more criminal or terrorist information to keep the case open so he had to close it. once the case is closed and he had the information it is smart to go ahead and target omar mateen as a potential source since you have all that information on the individual and always trying to that and recruit sources. what bette

is omar mateen a risk?at time. >> sandra: that's where you and tammy differ then. >> this is the issue. how really do you trust an investigation into the son of an informant who is with his father, knows his father, they know what's going on, and trust that you have got the same people handling the informant as investigating the son whereas in the arrest of the son would invariably put at risk the informant. you know this is a problem. this is why the american people are looking very funny at this dynamic and why all of the things that should have been huge flags and they did nothing and then the disappearance of the wife, of the widow for they allowed her to leave the state and go to california to live for a year. but this comes at a time when the fbi either through neglect like at parkland, and incompetence or in this dynamic my goodness how do you separate the two? you certainly can't. >> sandra: i want to give terry the last word here. >> okay. again, really reasonable issues. i cannot look at this and

namely that omar mateen went into pulse with the intention to target gay people.e right loved it because they like to depict muslims as being incompatible with the left and hating guys. the left loved it because it put lbgts as the victim of a hate crime. the reality is that he had never been to pulse. he had gone to multiple other locations in the days leading up to the attack and on that day that had nothing to do with the gay community, disney, other places he hadit judged were too fortifiedd by security. he chose pulse randomly by entering google and asked what is a orlando downtown nightclub. the evidence is overwhelming that he was motivated not that he was motivated not what he said during the entire attack which it was being done in retaliation for what he perceived as 15 years of u.s. killing of muslims, women and children who were innocent in muslim countries. >> tucker: interesting. now we learn that his father was an fbi informant. this fits a pattern with these massacres and, you know, i don't think we know enough to really understand what it means bu

how is it we are just learning now about omar mateen? we hadn't heard much of him. t now we learned his father was an informant, they thought about recruiting omar himself, they found out about these mueseings about his connection to terrorists organizations. >> what surprised me most, we just now learn it. usually when you are in the lead up to a trial, you have to disclose everything you have that might be relevant to the defense. in this instance, they waited a long time. i can tell you this, within minutes after the shooting at the nightclub and after his name was known, the fbi knew that omar mateen was connected, they would have done an index check and the fbi had prior interest with these people. that's not at all unusual. what i'm surprised about is that they would have decidedded in the lead up to this trial to not say anything about that until now. you can take big chances in waiting this long. as it turns out, the judge said, look, this is not relevant. this continues on. there is a lot of questions here. theth one glaring thing that cos to mind if he was
