[h=1]FBI now backpedals and releases COMPLETE transcripts of Orlando shooter Omar Mateen's 911 call in which he says 'Peace be upon the prophet... I did the shootings' - hours after redacting references to Islam and 9/11[/h]
Monday afternoon FBI released complete transcripts of Omar Mateen's call to 911 from inside Pulse nightclub - three hours after the redacted version
In the 50-second call he claimed responsibility for his attack that left 49 people dead and 53 injured
Mateen also 'made murderous statements in a chilling, calm and deliberate manner' according to FBI Special Agent Ronald Hopper
The FBI first released redacted references to Islam, 9/11 and any other groups that Mateen pledged an allegiance to during the attack
References to 'Allah' were replaced with 'God' throughout
Republicans hit out at DoJ's decision to redact the Orlando shooter's conversation - citing it as another example 'of not focusing on the evil here'
Hours later Justice Dept. and the FBI released joint statement including the complete transcript 'to provide the highest level of transparency
Reasons for earlier redactions were 'to remain sensitive to interests of surviving victims' and 'not to give publicity platform to hateful propaganda'
