Every agency has their own expertise, and we are using that expertise to do to a very, very thorough investigation. As far as the investigation, which collected a substantial amount of evidence to piece together what happened here. Bodies have been removed and transported to the medical Examiners Office for autopsies. Substantial amount of evidence, physical evidence has been collected, including hundreds of shell casings, more than 15 magazines, 30 30 round capacity magazines. The suspect vehicle has been processed with the suspects body inside. Multiple interviews have been conducted in numerous cities and other states. Victims have been identified and next of kin have been notified. What needs to be done from this point, we need to finalize the list, identify the deceased victims, and complete the notifications to next of kin. We plan to have that done and release the victims names as soon as possible. Tonight, we hope to finish the evidence collection process, and we will begin forensic mapping and trajectory analysis tomorrow. What i can tell you is today, at the autopsy was performed on the shooter and if you notice, i use shooter instead of the suspects name. We do not want to glorify him and what he has done. The autopsy was conducted this morning, and what i can tell you is he sustained three gunshots. Two gunshot wounds were from the armed citizen, one of those was in the leg and the other was in the torso. And she had a third gunshot wound, which the medical examiner described as being consistent with being selfinflicted. Theres no change regarding the victims. We still have four in serious condition, ten in critical condition, and the number of deceased has not changed. Good afternoon. I just want to commend the commander from dps for not mentioning the shooters name. Certainly dont want to glorify what has happened there, a couple of campaigns out there, one is called dont name them, we dont talk about the shooter or see his name in the press so it doesnt encourage other people to do horrific acts like this. I can tell you that the scene in there is horrific, thats not even the word to describe it. I certainly want to commend the First Responders who went in there, fire, ems and police department. The fbi and dps ranger evidence teams that are in there now taking care of this. I think thats an important part we should always remember. I know theres a lot of questions about the fbi system, and how to the person get the weapons. I can tell you that the four purchases he made, the system did their required checks and there was no prohibitive information in the systems that we checked to say that he could not have purchased that firearm. There are three checks that are conducted, one is a criminal history check, and another one is on the system itself. All three of those databases, there was not information that we would say its prohibitive for that man to get the fire alarm. You very much. The question was, the third gunshot wound was to the head. The one that was selfinflicted. [indistinct] obviously everybody is taking a look at what happened there. I believe the air force released a statement about 30 minutes ago, so we are working with them to try to figure out what happened there. [indistinct] she was not. Was he fired from the army . We know he was released from the army, and we would have to refer to the air force on that. It was the air force. There have been unconfirmed reports that the suspect [indistinct] that is not true. He thought that the shooter might have attended the same church. Im not aware of the shooter attending this church. He had family members that attended, his spouse attended this church. Did you say that the grandmother in law was not . Because the grandmother in law . We are not aware of that at this time. Earlier you told us that the suspect called his father the families being cooperative. They have been cooperative and i really cant expand on that because of their cooperation and communications, and out of respect for them. One of the victims was reportedly pregnant. Will that change the number of murder counts . That number was included. One of the victims was pregnant. Was this intended to be a revenge shooting . I cant comment further on that. We know there was conflict between the families and whether that was revenge or not would be speculation on my part. We are not aware we are unaware if she has one of the victims or not. You cant say know for sure . I cant. The messages that the shooter sent to his mother in law . Beco i cant. The phones are being explored at this time, and i dont have that information. [indistinct] the crime was not racial, religiously motivated, if we say that right now he came to kill the mother in law . There are many ways that he could have taken care of the motherinlaw without coming with 15 loaded magazines and an Assault Rifle to a church. I think he came here with a purpose and a mission, and can you verify the weaponry . How many magazines . You said 15 earlier. There were 15 magazines collected here at the crime scene. How many of those magazines were empty . All of them. Thank you for coming out. We will have a briefing for you tomorrow, continue to follow us on twitter, and also through email as well. Martha new information there is this evening as we continue to move through this unbelievably awful story that unfolded in a Baptist Church in a small town in texas over the weekend. In Sutherland Springs texas to wrap up what we learned here and what we have learned so far tonight in the story. Good evening, matt. Good evening, what we just learned according to authorities, there was an autopsy performed on the shooter and that the shooter to sustained three gunshot wounds, one to the head, which the medical examiner says was selfinflicted. If you heard authorities there not choosing to name the shooter, they say they do not want to glorify him. Devon kelley, the shooter purchased for guns, and all of those purchases were done properly with background checks. There is no information in any National System that would have prevented the shooter from purchasing the guns, which makes sense with some of the information we learned just a short while ago, that the u. S. Air force did not report the shooters criminal records to the fbi as required by pentagon rules. Potentially making it much easier for the shooter to pass background checks and purchase these guns. It late today a Sporting Goods store in san antonio release statement saying that it has sold a gun to the shooter in 2016 and 2017 and that there he passed all the criminal background checks, which raises a lot of questions as to why he was allowed to get his hands on these guns. We understand that kelley, the shooter, was discharged from the u. S. Air force for bad behavior. He was courtmartialed and ultimately in prison for beating his wife and child, reportedly admitting to intentionally beating his child, so he was discharged from the air force. A lot of questions tonight. Why this man, who is being described as a monster, was able to get his hands on these guns that killed at least 26 innocent people in this church behind me. Martha right you are, a lot of questions about how he was able to get his hands almost guns guns given his criminal background. That is supposed to be prevented by having a criminal record. Thank you very much. We are going to talk about that part of the story in just a moment, but first, in terms of this horrific shooting and what it has done to this town of Sutherland Springs, texas, is absolutely unfathomable. You have eight people who were all across three generations of one family who were killed inside that Baptist Church. Brian, his wife carla, their son danny, noah, dannys 17monthold daughter. Crystal, the pregnant wife of another one of their sons. If an three of her five childre, emily, megan and greg. Joining me now is david, a family friend of them and he started a gofundme page to raise money for the family to help them deal with the funerals and with the future. David, i cannot imagine you look at that picture of that absolutely beautiful family and the remaining members of that family who have to deal with this unfathomable loss. Tell us about these people. I want you to know that john is a standup solid guy. I worked with him in the late 90s. Im an engineer, and john is an i. T. Guy, and he gave us tremendous support at the firms that we were cut together here in san antonio. And after we went in different directions, we kept in touch. John is a man of faith. He is motivated in everything that he does by what he believes. He seeks to love god and love people with every single thing that he does. And john found a wonderful woman to marry, crystal. Crystal was a widow with five children and john married crystal and took her children as if they were his own and he has always love them and cherish them as though they were his blood. Now john and crystal were expecting their first child together in this tragedy just brought a bitter, bitter and to that. John is one of those guys that you dont meet very many of that kind of person. Solid, you rely on them, and we need people like john and his family in this country. They are the salt that preserves us. Martha theres a gofundme page. I know people are listening and they just want to help. How did they do that . We set up a gofundme page. Its at go fund me. Com and it has an extension of Something Like john Holcomb Family till my funeral expenses. John has nine, eight or nine people to perry and his family all at once. Not only is he staggering under the emotional reality of what has happened, but now hes got to come up with funeral expenses, so we are trying to raise 72,000 to help john with those tragic expenses. Martha a good friend and a time of need and we will all keep his family in our thoughts and prayers, and it almost sounds cliche to say that after all of the shootings that we watch, but it is something that everyone can do, and we do that and we also will help financially as well and we hope other people will help that. Thank you very much for the tribute to your friend and his family, and we thank you for being here. Thank you, a real privilege to be with you. Martha here now with more on this story, mark, former l. A. P. D. Detective and Fox News Contributor. Candace, former fbi agent and criminal profiler. She is not a host of investigative discoveries deadly women. Good to have you both with us tonight. Im sad that its another one of these unfathomable killings, and i think people want to know how we can stop this. Candace, let me start with you, because you hear his profile, he assaulted children, split open the skull of his stepson. He assaulted animals, he assaulted his wife. This man was a powder keg and unfortunately we will get to the gun issue in just a moment, somehow he was able to get his hands we know he had the motive and he could have done it a number of ways, but he was able to get his hands on some missionary that helped him mow down most people in just a few minutes. Candace, tell me what you think about this man. Im sorry. Martha thats okay. It looks like hes a hothead whose answer to solving any problem he had was violence. And anybody that would cause a Skull Fracture in a child and start his own dog and beat the dog just doesnt belong in our society. The motivation i will speculate that it does certainly look like part revenge and part just venting his anger, rage, for whatever it was that was bothering him. Chances are he has been a brute and a bully his entire life and he likes to dominate other people through violence. Martha mark, when you hear this information about the air force, discharging him and then courtmartial in him. If that he spent i think about 21 months in prison for these Assault Charges to a woman, and to a young baby. How is it that that information isnt passed along to the fbi . Martha, i think it is supposed to be passed along but the department of defense, sometimes those things get dropped in between two federal agencies. I dont think anybody would find that surprising. But i think in the wake of this tragedy, i think there should be some Due Diligence that you have a check and balance on the military and the department of defense and ncic systems so this never happens again. Martha people wouldnt find it surprising, i find it extremely surprising. When you let someone out into the public, theyve been discharged and theyve spent time in prison for assaulting a baby and a woman, why would it not be part of their discharge to make sure that they are put into those databases . In other words, one of the databases for if not to prevent someone like this from getting their hands on a weapon that he took a picture of on his couch, and called it a name that starts with a b. He was so excited to have this gun. I agree with you, i think it should go farther than that and i believe candace would probably agree. I think any Domestic Violence should be a felony when you have a man that is of superior size and strength that abuses, hits, strikes a woman or a child, it should be a felony, and there should be mandatory and immediate psychological screening of that person. This person in the shooting had a mental defect that was so severe he murdered 26 people just because he was angry with his inlaws, or supposedly he was angry with his inlaws. This is a violent man but should not be out among us that is beating women and children, and then because of that he is out and hes able to do the shootin shooting. Martha its horrific and our system obviously does not work. This is very different than what we saw in las vegas. If there were a lot of markers for this man, as candace points out. As we know from his criminal background, its just unfathomable, and we need to fix the system. Too late for these tragic people who lost their entire family on the other people there as well, but it doesnt measure up and its not right. Candace, thank you very much. Mark, good to see you both tonight. We have a live update earlier this evening as you saw. Coming up next we will get into that.

More martha breaking tonight, President Trump said to leave within the hour for south korea, a crucial part of this age or journey as the threat of a north Korean Nuclear strike escalates. It comes after a busy couple of days in japan with the president alongside our ally took a strong stance against the aggression that is presented by the rogue regime. The regime continued development of its unlawful weapons programs, including its Illegal Nuclear tests and outrageous launches of Ballistic Missiles directly over japanese territory. A threat to the civilized world, and International Peace and stability. We will not stand for that. The era of strategic patients is over. Martha chief White House Correspondent john roberts live in seoul, south korea where the president is expected to land just a few hours from now. Hi, john good morning to you from seoul, south korea. The president left his hotel in tokyo for just a short time ago. He supposed to arrive here in about three hours time. The first order of business when it gets here will be to visit many of the 37,500 troops that are stationed here in south korea at Camp Humphreys. If one plays the president will not going. There wasnt time to go to Camp Humphreys and the dmz. The president got a big show of support, as you mentioned, from the japanese Prime Minister shinzo abe yesterday in tokyo, despite the fact that the president has been roundly criticized for using fiery rhetoric against north korea, abe said yesterday at a press conference, early in the morning new york time, that he is 100 behind President Trump. Listen here. Japan consistently reports the position of President Trump when he says that all options are on the table. Some people said that my rhetoric is very strong, but look out what has happened with very weak rhetoric over the last 25 years, look at where we are right now. And the president striking an optimistic tone ahead of his meetings with south korean president moon. If the president tweeting early run from tokyo that moon is an fine gentleman, and that we will figure it all out. But moon, who has to live in the neighborhood with both north korea and china, has his own concerns. You saw some contentions in a dispute with china over an antimissile sy
