Florida. The flight is raising major questions about the security of airspace above the district. News4s pat collins has some mixed reaction from capitol hill.

They need to conduct a search to find what evidence maybe there to indicate what prompted this person to ajt the way he did, who he may have been working with, and learn from this so we can use it in future cases, as well. What type of evidence would they be looking for . Certainly for computer evidence, for example, to see who has he been in communication. Has anyone else been involved leading him to commit this crime or he was inspired to do so by websites and other information he was looking at. Like wise, they will also look at physical telltale signs. Who he has been speaking with by cell phone, numbers or addresses at his property. Any number of pieces of information can help prevent the next act. Does it matter if he was a lone wolf and self radicalized or given direction from isis . When we know he has already claimed himself in a 911 call that his allegiance was to isis. Certainly matters if hes working with other people. We want to make sure we are going after them, as well.
