It was a solemn night in San Bernardino. Thousands came together for a candle light vigil to remember the victims and their families. Amy, you saw that sadness up close. It is sad. Have to cover stories like this so many times this year alone. But in the past several years specifically. Yet, every time you hear from the witnesses, about what they felt, what they saw, the panic, the fear. The terror. It really is still unthinkable. Completely unthinkable. So many did come together to honor the 14 People Killed. Fathers, mothers, husbands, and wives. All killed in this tragedy. And overnight, we have learned more about the killer couple as well. A husband and wife, dressed to kill. They opened fire at a Holiday Gathering for county health workers. A search of their home turned up weapons, a dozen pipe bombing and a huge cache of weaponry. We have team coverage. David, we are learning much more about what the investigators found in the killers home. In fact a chilling portrait this morning. Overnight, a new look at not only what they were carrying point out, inside their home. This was a massive arsenal. Certainly large enough to carry out another attack. Just as i sat down with one of farooks coworkers. They sat at desks together for years. He thought he was a friend. He sat with him at the table that morning. This morning, a closer look at the most revealing images yet of theletle weapons used in the deadly shooting rampage. Investigators searching the home of the two alleged killers, syed farook, and his wife, Tashfeen Malik. Several down in the conference room. Reporter new video released of the police chase. Oh, theyre after somebody. Reporter the blk suv in frame. Police in close pursuit. Hundreds of gunshots echoed through the streets. Oh, theyre killing that guy. [ gunshots ] while farook was driving, his wife was firing out the window of the car. The suspects are believed to have fired about 75 rifle rounds at the officers at the termination of the pursuit. Reporter overnight, what it was like in the conference hall. Extremely loud. The fire alarms were going off. There were people obviously injured. And obviously in great amounts of pain. And, that was evident in the moans and the wails that we were hearing in the room. Reporter spoke with patrick baccari, a coworker, who shared a cubicle with syed farook for years. You have the same title . Similar. Discussed similar things. I thought i made a connection with him talking about preparing cars and things like that. Asked him some of his experiences, things like that. Reporter that was how you got him to open up . Talking about cars . I would greet him and i its like youre trying to initiate conversation. And it just doesnt perpetuate or get anywhere. Reporter baccaris life was spared because he wept to the restroom just as the killers were about to enter the room. H shots came through the wall. I get hit with a blast. I dont know what it is. I thought the paper towel dispenser was booby trapped. Reporter it blows up in your face. You look in the mirror. I see im bleeding. Reporter he tries to send a text to his wife. Were hearing the gunfire take place. Im trying to contact my wife and tell her i love her and that im okay. Reporter he could only type out two words. It said gunman attacked. I didnt connect it. I didnt know what was going on. I tried to reach him. I couldnt get through. Reporter this is the text here . Yes. Thats all you could get out. Overnight here, a vigil honoring the victims. There were thousands at that vigil. The entire list of the victims released overnight as they were gathering to honor and mourn their faces, their names. I should share one more thing that coworker patrick shared with us. He was inside this center at the table with him. He did notice that when it was time to take the annual christmas photo, farook was missing. He thought nothing of it until the gunfire gain blasting through the wall. It was awhile later until he heard the name syed. He still couldnt believe it. Youll be back later in the program. In the meantime, the fbi is treating the shootings as a possible terror attack. Investigators digging deep into the life of the husband and wife team. Brian ross has the latest. Officially call it a case of terrorism. Increasingly, Law Enforcement Officials Say the action leave little doubt about the aim of their mission. In the same San Bernardino townhouse where they were raising their infant daughter, syed ma farook and his pakistaniborn wife, Tashfeen Malik, were preparing to go to war. Enough weapons to kill thousands of people. Some 6100 rounds. Their garage was a virtual bomb factory. With 1 unexploded bombs. Described as similar to this one featured in an al qaeda publication. All that in addition to this bomb. It used a yellow toy car as a remotecontrol detonator. One neighbor was alarmed. They were doing a lot of work in the garage. And she was kind of suspicious. Reporter but nobody called the police. Have continued to do another attack. Reporter farook had worked for five years at the county health department. The widow of one of those he murdered said there were no warning science. Is there they were all friends with the man who did this. They knew he was muslim. They had no idea he had become radicalized. Reporter theyre travel and contacts are being monitored. Looking for evidence to what turned farook and his wife into killers. Agents went to the mosque he often attended. The imam said he was questioned by authorities at gunpoint. He would not answer questions about farook but told abc news he condemns all violence. The news of the shooting was shocking. Unbelievable. Unfathomable. Left us all speechless. It is an act that has we condemn as muslims. Reporter also left behind as off in the rented suv for a fatal showdown with police was their 6monthold daughter. Theyre unsure which daughter has custody of the orphaned little girl. Federal authorities tell abc news the fbi is looking for connections between two specific individuals and farook. To see if they were involved in his radicalization or helping to plan the attacks. His massive arsenal would have cost thousands of dollars, fair amount of money for someone who takes home 700 a week. Were going to get more from pierre thomas. This couple did a lot to cover their tracks. Law enforcement Officials Say the suspected shooters did attempt a coverup. Mobile phones and hard drives were smashed or tampered with. Fbi computer analysts will try to reconstruct what was destroyed. Authorities fear this was an attempt to hide what the couple were viewing and who they had communicated with. This couple not on the fbi radar at all . Sources say they had done nothing suspicious enough to come under serious fbi scrutiny. The fbi is poring over files to make sure nothing is missed. Now to the victims. All 14 innocent People Killed at the Holiday Party have now been named. Their loved ones are speaking out this morning about their lives. And their unbelievable loss. Se cecilia vega has more. Reporter good morning to you. We know that some of the survivors are still being treat here in this hospital behind me.

Hes speaking out. We wanted to get in there and stop any further innocent people from being injured and possibly killed. As we entered into the conference room. The the situation was surreal. It was something that i dont think again, we prepare for and they try to an active shooter. We talk about sensory overload. They try to throw everything at you to prepare you for dealing with that. What youre seeing. What youre hearing. Um, and it was all of that and more. It was unspeakable. The carnage that we were seeing. The number of people who were injured. And unfortunately, already dead. And when we entered, there was fresh gun powder. And the smell of gun pouder in the air. And, the pure panic on the face of those individuals that were still in need. And needing to be safe. And then we went further into the building. And, that was a difficult choice to have to make as well. Passing people that we knew were injured and in need of assistance.

There are actually young paradise welcome back to gma. And listen to a little coldplay. That song, paradise, off their new album. Out today. A lot more in pop news. We turn to a surprising report on online bullying. Not the lay ground. Online bullying. Magazine. A new survey. Fearing going online, fear of being attacked going online. Why is this happening more an more . We found in the survey that despite all of tefrts that social media platforms have made to make these places safer and kinder and more compassionate, everybody says, 93 of people say its either staying the same or getting worse. Why it happens . We have somehow come to believe its okay to say in social media things you would never in a million years say in public. If you were walking down the street and someone came up to you and said, youre ugly. You would think, you have a screw loose. On some level, we think this is the price to pay for living in the fully wird 21st century. It shouldnt be that way. We saw that its important if you see something to say so if you see somebody ganging up on a woman or a man for that matter, you dont have to take on the troll or the attacker. That can actually be risky. Post a simple thing like, a smiley face emoticon to the woman debting abused or a simple ouch just to show, listen, weve seen this. Were watching. Some of the threats are violent. 8 pgt of women said they had been fizzily threatened with die. Sit because youre faceless, nameless, theres no accountability . I think thats one of the reasons. The majority of people that do the bullying have been bullied. Its like any other kind of abuse. Theres a cycle. If you have lived it, you promote it. Kicking the dog and the dog becomes vicious. Sometimes its competitive. Guys bond by posting ugly not a public figure. A private person. Theyll tack people so others can see, look how i messed with her. Dont you wish there was a way that if you said something hurtful, your name popped up. I think saying something like, please, show some respect, can be powerful. You can and should reporter if its dangerous. Really interesting findings. Im glad you did this study. It has to stop. I feet totally agree.

Comes out in a couple of days. Its shrouded in secrecy. We have never interviewed so many stars and were not even allowed to see the movie. I havent seen it. But you have. Its really good. And i think in my mouth, so i dont lie. Its everything its promised to be and more. Gary, you saw it . Gary did see it. Gary, what did you think . He panted all the way through it. I think it was too loud. It was his first real screening. So he looked like that still. The tongue wasnt out of his mouth before he saw the movie. And that happened after watching the movie. It will happen to everyone. Wow. Worth it, though. Thats how good it is. Wow wont care that your tongue . Now, i understand that george lucas personally asked you the come back.

What do you do when people say that . I think in my mind, yes . No, i try not to respond as an adult. You actually physically transformed for this role. Yes, i did lose weight. And i think its a stupid conversation. Well move on. Not with you. I mean, its good. Normally, i wouldnt talk about youre so thin. Lets talk about. How do you keep it going on . Do you exercise . I do. Is it boring . What music makes it worthwhile . I want to hear the song. Maybeky go for it, too. Princess leia was such a strong yes. I get it. No. She was a Strong Female character back in the day. Did you realize the role you were taking on at the time . I didnt know i was paving. Im glad to hear it now. I thought i was doing other stuff.

You said you dont like watching yourself. Thats okay. Im 19. Why wouldnt i like it . You like it less as you roll along. People that are normal that have other genes other than they dont like it as much. Not that you have an advantage with a dna jackpot or anything. Because im sure that this is all, like, what a victory of Plastic Surgery . No. Your parents mated well. Gratulate them. Do you want to say anything to the die hard fan . Please go to this film, if youve heard its good. Youll like it. I like it. Im strict. Gary is falling asleep. Gary is bored as hell. His eyes are closing. We have lulled him to sleep.
