The FBI had a decade-long confidential informant relationship with the father of Pulse nightclub shooter Omar Mateen, prosecutors admitted Saturday, 12 days into the trial of his wife.
The undercover relationship with the father, Seddique Mateen, continued even though the bureau was tipped off in 2012 that its informant was himself raising money to plan a terrorist attack on the government of Pakistan.
The father’s status also played a role in the FBI’s decision not to seek prosecution of Omar in 2013 after they investigated him for violent threats, attorneys for the shooter’s wife said. If Omar had gone to prison in that case, the infamous Pulse shooting might have been avoided.
Omar Mateen killed 49 people and injured 68 others at a gay nightclub in Orlando in June 2016.

Funny how all of these shootings fall back to the FBI in some way!!!!!
Has anyone else noticed how the FBI seems to be involved in so many pre-massacres? Does anybody else wonder why the FBI "investigated" Benghazi a month after it happened? Just wondering........
The FBI, again, ignores crime to serve their own purpose.
Keep cheering.
Pulse shooting was a fabrication. Hoax.
Insane: They know who you are!
Since the 60’s,” the FBI has been involved in what are now called “false flags”. Planting bad actors to create a negative popular opinion of true grassroots movements.
