FBI got tips minutes before California synagogue attack.
The FBI said it got tips about a social media post threatening violence against Jews just minutes before a gunman killed a worshipper and wounded three others at a Southern California synagogue — an attack that makes him"part of the history of evil that has been perpetrated on Jewish people for centuries," the suspect's family said Monday.
"Our son's actions were informed by people we do not know, and ideas we do not hold," the family said in its first public comments. Kaye, 60, was remembered for her kindness Monday at a memorial service at the packed synagogue in Poway, a well-to-do suburb north of San Diego. His father, John A. Earnest, is a popular physics teacher at the public high school he attended in San Diego.
