It was at a News Conference with survivors. We will hear from patience carter. Shes a young woman that went to pulse with two of her friends and one of her friends was killed. This is her poem. The guilt of feeling grateful to be alive is heavy. Wanting to smile about surviving, but not sure if the people around you a as the world mourns the victims killed, and viciously slain, i feel guilty about screaming about my legs in pain because i can feel nothing like the other 49 who werent so lucky to feel this pain of mine. I never thought in a million years that this could happen. I never thought in a million years that my eyes could witness something so tragic. Looking at the souls leaving the bodies of individuals, looking at the killers machine gun throughout my right periphery, looking at the blood and debris covered on everyones faces, looking at the gunmans feet under the stall as he paces.

History is looking into what the gunmans wife may have known before all of this unfolded. Sore e sources are telling nbc news that the shooters wife was with him when he purchased ammo and a holster. And they say she actually drove him to the pulse nightclub where those 49 people lost their lives. Joining us now is justice correspondent Pete Williams who broke this story earlier today. Pete, at this point is the wife being cooperative and is there a sense from investigators about just how much she knew . Yes and no. Yes, shes being cooperative, but no, they dont know fully whether what shes telling them is true and that will take time to figure out. Let me back up to what you said in the introduction jim, just to be crystal clear, and i know you understand this, just to make sure. The fed him to the pulse nightclub at least once prior to the attack. She did not drive him there the night of the attack, they say. He drove himself. They found his van in the parking lot. What she is telling them is one reason that she drove him around to these places knowing what he may have been planning is that she thought that by doing that she would have the occasion to try to talk him out of it. She has told the fbi that she had some sense of what what he was planning to do and that she repeatedly tried to talk him out of it. Now whether she had that knowledge, whether she tried to talk him out of it, whether she was with him when he bought the holster and the ammo and whether she drove him around on the socalled casing visits, that is all to be determined and this investigation is in its early stages. If that turns out to be true, then the feds have a difficult decision to make here. They have to decide whether to file charges against her because its illegal under federal law just to get into this a little more clearly, of course, the crime wasnt committed until he went in there and did the shooting, but if he was planning the shooting and if he was buying the ammo and casing around then thats a crime in and of itself, so that would be the theory here that she was aware that this was going on and she failed to tell authorities and that certainly is illegal and they would be able to file charges, but theyre a long way from any decision about what to do. Pete, were also hearing from some of the survivors that they recognized the gunman because they say that he had frequented this club pulse and some of them say they recognized him from some gay dating apps. What does the fbi make of this . Well, they take this very seriously. Dates apps some people have come forward to the fbi saying look, heres a message that i got and they start looking at the photograph and figure out its not him and some of those have washed out, but the club or other clubs in the orlando area weeks, months before the shooting is a very large number and the fbi is by no means disregarding that. Theyre taking it very seriously. Theyre looking at it. It adds to the picture, potentially of what was going through his mind. They still dont know why they did this and they may never know why he targeted that specific place on that day. Pete williams. Thank you, pete. Stay tuned. Pete will have much more ahead on nbc nightly news. Like other Mass Shootings before this, the tragedy is once again stirring a debate about gun laws in our country. Chris gordon went to a gun store and a gun range to find out what impact this massacre has taken.
