Landlord opens San Bernardino suspects' home to reporters, public

WASHINGTON (Sinclair Broadcast Group) — The landlord of the townhome that was rented to the couple suspected of killing 14 people, and injuring more than a dozen others at a holiday party this week, opened the residence to reporters, and the public Friday morning.

Syed Rizwan Farook - a 28-year-old U.S. born citizen - and Tashfeen Malik - a 27-year-old woman - died after a confrontation with police. The two were reportedly married. Farook was a U.S. citizen, Malik was a foreign national who reportedly pledged allegiance to ISIS.

After approximately two hours, the house was boarded off, and closed; the landlord - Doyle Miller was escorted from the property in an unmarked car, CNN reported.

"I opened the door... it's getting overwhelming" said Miller to reporters on camera. When asked by reporters if they were allowed to go inside, he said "yeah."

According to CNN, the landlord used a crowbar to gain access to the rental home - telling reporters the FBI didn't tell him to not allow people inside. The assistant director for the Los Angeles FBI office confirmed the scene was no longer in their control, and it had been turned over to Miller Thursday night.

CNN reports the garage remains sealed.

You think Miller was a ploy and is now being used to throw under the bus after the potential cover up?

No idea to be honest...

In any other case where there's been massive killings with explosives or weapons, the investigators get the white suit people to go in, catalog and bag everything. Whatever is not relevant is returned to the relatives. Clothes are tested for explosive residue, documents are checked for fingerprints, receipts and bills are collected to identify bank accounts, credit cards and any money transfers.

Right, that is what they said on CNN too. The house wasn't turned over to the landlord, it was turned over to the family of the suspects. He had no right to allow people in the property, nor have the right to enter the premises. The items in the house belong to the family of the suspects now, not the landlord.

only so if they were paid up on their rent,if not the property belongs to the landlord....to cover costs

No the FBI were quoted as saying it was turned over to the landlord. If they are renting control goes back to the owner, not extended family. Any damage or stolen property, because of the landlords action, is civil (depending on CA law).

It is possible, with the help of the FBI Evidence Response Team, to clear a small house in a short amount of time when working nonstop until completion.

Can we assume the FBI knew all about how and why no investigation needed...... Hmmm have we been sold out again

Listen to this law enforcement guy talking about the destruction of evidence


Sounds familiar. The same thing they did at the 911 scene

my big problem is i dont think the landlord had any right to enter that apartment .

the tenets were not evicted and there was not court order allowing him access .that means he cannot enter the residence without notice not to mention everything in there is property of the next of kin or whatever their will states.

this is all sorts of wrong.

assuming that the police are done with the crime scene.
even if the only resident of that place is the baby, all the stuff in there should have been protected for her sake... I mean any valuables that might have been in there might have provided the start of a college fund or something. wtf!!!
the place should have been left as the police left it at least a month or so, give the family time to grieve. of course, maybe there was valuables in it and well, the cops lifted them and well figured if they let this happen, well, there would be no clue as to what happened to the stuff. anyone renting from this guy should plan to move asap, he obviously isn't gonna respect your stuff enough to make sure that your belongings are protected for your heirs!

it doesnt matter

he still needs a court order to enter the premises and all that stuff goes to the next of kin. because someone dies doesnt mean anyone can go through their house.

think if you had an apartment and kids

one day you die in an auto accident

does that mean the landlord can let random people into your apartment and let them rifle through your things? or do your things go to the next of kin or whoever you have in your will.

as long as the rent is paid and there is no court order (usually delivered by a sheriff) then that is still a private residence

I understand that the media intrusion was at the invitation of the landlord of the townhouse. The police and other agencies supposedly have made their examination of the residence and they obviously took all the evidence they needed. Whats left behind is probably of no significance.

They usually tape it off for quite a long time in these cases, this was ridiculously fast considering especially the crime!
