The father of the Orlando nightclub shooter has been spotted sitting behind Hillary Clinton at her rally in Florida.
Seddique Mateen, whose son Omar killed 49 people at Pulse nightclub on June 12, was seen grinning as he watched the Democratic presidential nominee speak in Kisssimmee.
The former secretary of state started her address to the crowd on Monday by paying tribute to the victims of the horrific terrorist attack that shocked the world just two months ago.
She was speaking at the Osceola Heritage Park – which is just a 30 minute drive from where the worst mass shooting in American history took place.
Mateen, a pro-Taliban political activist, later said he was there because he’s a member of the Democrats and had been ‘invited’.
On Tuesday, a source in the Democratic party told DailyMail.com he wasn’t invited and he was not on any of their email lists.
