The wife of San Bernardino shooter Syed Farook is believed to have pledged allegiance to the Islamic State leader, Abu Bakr al-Baghdad.

"Tashfeen remains the biggest mystery," a leader of the Pakistani-American Muslim community in the San Bernardino area told Fox News. "She's the one no one knows anything about and has little to no presence on the Internet or having interacted with others in the Muslim community."
As previously reported by the Inquisitr, Syed Farook was radicalized and communicated online with more than one terrorism suspect under investigation by the FBI. The home rented by the San Bernardino shooters was deemed an "IED factory" by law enforcement investigators who searched the residence.

Syed Farook worked as an environmental inspector San Bernardino County in California for five years. In 2003, Farook reportedly earned a $53,000 taxpayer-funded salary. Some news reports indicate his current salary was around $70,000. He graduated from California State University San Bernardino with an environmental health degree in 2009.
Neighbors of Tashfeen Malik and Syed Farook told reporters that in recent weeks a significant increase of activity at their home had occurred. According to statements made by neighbors to the media, a multitude of Middle Eastern-looking individuals had been seen entering and leaving the home at all hours. The witnesses also said that a plethora of packages had been delivered to the home recently. Some neighbors thought perhaps the deliveries were due to online Christmas shopping. At least one neighbor said fear of being labeled a racist or Islamophobic prevented a phone call to the police to report the unusual activity.
