It was a trace just like any other trace that happens here in Martinsburg. Remember: We didn't know too much about radicalized homegrown jihadists until then. The FBI picked up Marquez, who is alleged to have been plotting attacks with Farook at Riverside City College and on state highway 91 as early as 2011. Turned out a former neighbor, Enrique Marquez, bought those during the same time period. But what about the assault rifles-they were still a mystery. Farook and Malik were discovered to have posted an oath of allegiance to the Islamic State on Facebook just before the attack began. Syed Rizwan Farook and his wife, Tashfeen Malik, had purchased the handguns legally between three and eight years previously at Annie's Get Your Gun, an FFL in Corona, California. At the National Tracing Center, they figured out where the guns came from, as well as who bought them-the slain assailants. After a shoot-out, the cops recovered a Smith & Wesson handgun, a Llama handgun, a Smith & Wesson M&P assault rifle, and a DPMS Panther Arms assault rifle. Remember: Nobody knew who these maniacs were or why they were doing this. Last December two gunmen opened fire at a holiday office party in San Bernardino, California, killing 14 people.
