ROUGH CUT (NO REPORTER NARRATION) The sister of the male suspect in the San Bernardino mass shooting says she isn't sure if she'll ever be able to forgive her brother. Speaking in an interview, Saira Khan, sister of Syed Farook, said "I want to say I'm sorry. Deeply saddened. It's a sad day for all of us." Khan says Farook and his wife, Tashfeen Malik gave no indication of their plans ahead of the mass shooting that left 14 people dead at a holiday party in California. "So many things I asked myself. I ask myself if I had called him that morning or the night before, asked him how he was doing, what he was up to...if I had any inclination maybe I could have stopped it," said Khan. Farook and Malik were killed in a shootout with police hours after the Wednesday massacre at the Inland Regional Center social services agency in San Bernardino, about 60 miles (100 km) east of Los Angeles. The couple left behind a 6-month old daughter. Farook's brother-in-law, Farhan Khan, said, "What he did to his own family, his daughter, to the innocent people there, no, I won't forgive him." Twenty-one people were wounded in the attack, the worst gun violence in the nation since the December 2012 shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut, in which 27 people died.
