Orlando killer and his wife texted each other during murders

It appears these two whack-jobs were perfect for each other. Too bad they lives in the United States and not in Islamic State controlled territory.

From CNN:
The Orlando shooter and his wife exchanged text messages during the Pulse nightclub rampage, a law enforcement official briefed on the investigation told CNN.

Around 4 a.m. on June 12, about two hours after he started the attack and while holed up in a bathroom, Omar Mateen texted his wife, Noor Salman, asking if she'd seen the news, the official said.

At one point, she responded with a text saying that she loved him. Salman also tried calling her husband several times during the standoff, a second law enforcement official said.

The timing of her calls came after reports of the attack had emerged, and apparently after she realized her husband might be responsible. He didn't answer, the official said.
Salman lived for a while in the Chicago area--in suburban Berwyn and Oak Lawn. The latter town borders Bridgeview, which is home to the extremist Mosque Foundation, colloquially known as the Bridgeview Mosque.

I wonder if she was a member?
