Johnson Facebook Letter
"In addition, my staff learned that in May 2016, Mateen used Facebook to search for information on the San Bernardino terrorists and on June 4, 2016, Mateen apparently searched 'Baghdadi Speech,'" Johnson wrote in the letter to Zuckerberg. "My staff has also learned that Mateen apparently used Facebook to conduct frequent local law enforcement and FBI searches, including searching for specific law enforcement offices."
Johnson asked Zuckerberg for his company's cooperation in providing "data on Mr. Mateen’s activities on his account and any affiliated Facebook accounts, including but not limited to activity logs, Facebook timeline information, Facebook messages, photos, and posts." He also requested "that appropriate company staff arrange a briefing with Committee staff on the information available to Facebook prior to and during this terrorist attack."
He asked Zuckerberg to do this by June 29.
The shooter pledged allegiance to ISIS a short time before he was killed. Despite this pledge, Mateen's radicalization came mostly by way of his own searches across the internet, according to intelligence officials.
Though Mateen alluded to other shooters during the attack, there is no indication that he was working with a larger group.
