In seeking to verify the reports, federal agents have culled Mateen's electronic devices, including a laptop computer and cellphone, as well as electronic communications of those who made the claims, law enforcement officials said.
So far, they have found no photographs, no text messages, no smartphone apps, no gay ****ography and no cell-tower location data to suggest that Mateen — who was twice married to women and had a young son — conducted a secret gay life, the officials said.
The FBI is continuing to explore Mateen’s past, but investigators now believe the men who made the claims are not credible, or confused Mateen with someone else.
He obvi destroyed the gay hoola evidence and plant some straight/nothing to see here evidence if he knows he gon die that day. i believe the mostly reliable TMZ on this one.
We will never know the killer's real motivations with any degree of certainty. What we do know is that 49 LGBT people and allies lost their lives because a mentally deranged man was able to easily get his hands on guns. Remembering the innocent lives lost and keeping guns out of the hands of mentally troubled people should be our primary focus after this tragic event.
Maybe he destroyed all evidence after turning against the gays? Why would all those gay men lie about hooking up with him and him visiting the club regularly? Who would wanna admit to that willingly?
