FBI watched Texas shooting suspect for years
One of the suspected gunmen who opened fire outside a Texas art contest featuring cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed was known to the FBI since 2006, but despite more than 1,500 hours of surveillance, he was prosecuted only once, it has emerged.
Agents recorded Elton Simpson talking about fighting non-believers for Allah, plans to travel to South Africa and link up with “brothers” in Somalia and using school as a cover story for travelling overseas.
