Who are Syed Rezwan Farook and Tashfeen Malik?

"These were people that came prepared," he said. "There had to have been some degree of planning that went into this."

A bag believed to belong to the shooters was found inside the conference room. Inside, investigators found three three rudimentary explosive devices packed with black powder and rigged to a remote controlled car. The remote for the car was found inside the SUV where Farook and Malik were later killed, a law enforcement official said.

That means the pair planned to use the remote to detonate the explosives remotely, the official said. Either it didn't work because of distance or they didn't do it. Officials later rendered the explosive devices safe.
