thanks so much for being here. we played the clip and his sister said his whole life, he was so hard to read. and that s obviously part of the reason that she s in such shock. did you find him to be that way? absolutely. he was, like i said before in other interviews, he was very reserved. he wasn t a person that would come in and start a conversation with you. he was a more shy person. but once you talked to him, he would talk. but it was very limited. he wouldn t talk about everything. my interactions with him were limited. we tried to get a window into who these people are, this couple is. what would you talk about? me, i would talk about what i knew of him, which was that he was a great guy, a nice guy to be around. today in the community, we were talking about all the great things i remember him for, his personality, his characteristics. all of the nice things that he i mean, he was a good asset to our community. in what way? in the sense that he was representing the m

sister-in-law posted on facebook about the same time as all of this started an allegiance to isis. anticipate there s been some suggestion that maybe she was in some way influencing your brother. we didn t know she had any kind of relations with isis or anything like that. if you met her, she was like the girl next door, you know? sweet, innocent, kind. the kient thnd that s always sm nice to you. you would never, ever guess that that girl would have ties to isis. did she ever express any unhappiness or did you ever have any conversations about being muslim in america, or terrorism? or did you talkn t a the paris attacks? no, actually not at all. i mean, being a housewife, we don t talk about paris attacks and this and that in front of your kid, to be honest. political agenda is not something we discuss in front of our kids.
your study also revealed in those 7,000 pages of document, again, as you said, sort of how different soive so many of them are. that s part of what frightens a lot of people. they were sort of hiding in plain sight. how many of these cases were there clear warnings. when you look at aum of the cases, you see in general, the vast majority, there s a bystander that sees something, whether it s a friend or family member. they see something is a little bit off, but they don t recognize what they re seeing and they don t have the tools to be able to talk to law enforcement and alert them. right now, the only option a family member has if they have a loved one they re concerned about is to do nothing and hope it s just a phase, or to call the fbi and potentially talk to their loved ones through a prison bar for 20 years. we need to find a middle way to intervene with people and bring them back into the fold. earlier today, the fbi s los angeles assistant director in
we continue the conversation about terror, radicalization and how we stop home grown terrorists. and i want to look at that specifically, jack, because it is so hard to track these home grown isis inspired plots, terror plots much more investigators say than a traditional terrorist plot. why and how is this type of investigation different? in this particular case, if there is a direct recruitment line. if you can find somebody in isis or in the past al shabaab and boka haram, you could find out who they re trying to recruit and the person who did the recruiting. the problem in this case is potentially we may have simply he s simply inspired by the rhetoric being inspired by isce isis. there s no way to make a
