The Father of Pulse Attacker Omar Mateen Was an FBI Informant. Did He Convince the Bureau to Stop Investigating His Son?

'The tip came on November 1, 2012, while Seddique Mateen was working as an FBI informant. '

'Defense lawyers have the option to call Seddique Mateen as a witness and ask about his work as an FBI informant. '

'The prosecution knew this but sought to hide it, Salman’s lawyers say. '

'Assessments, intended to provide quick responses to possible security threats, allow FBI agents to investigate people based on nothing more than internal suspicions or vague tips from the public. '

'During testimony this morning, FBI Special Agent Juvenal Martin, Seddique Mateen’s FBI handler, admitted that federal agents had considered recruiting the younger Mateen as an informant before he attacked the Orlando nightclub. '
