My opinion: It was shortsighted and foolish not to release the full transcript, and the recordings, of the 911 calls.
A) We already know he pledged allegiance to Daesh.
B) You have now provided Daesh with propaganda ammunition "They are afraid to tell the world what was said.."
C) You have given Daesh the opportunity to fake a leak with whatever words they want the shooter to say.
D) You have built-in-distrust from the public for censoring the release, and given those conspiracy theorists room to speculate.
E) He's dead so you can't mess up his trial. If the aim is to make this seem to be "Daesh-inspired" act, why not let us hear the words right out of his mouth? What do you really have to lose?
Whoever is making these decisions blundered badly here.
