Orlando Shooting Victim Sent Terrified Texts To His Mother 

Mina Justice, the mother of Eddie Justice, has revealed the tragic texts her son sent her from inside the Orlando nightclub where a gunman opened fire yesterday, killing at least 50 people and injuring 53.

 Mina Justice was asleep when she received the first text from her 30-year-old son. Eddie was trapped in the Florida gay club when the suspected gunman, Omar Mateen took him and the others hostage.

The first text he sent read: “Mommy I love you.”

 Mina called 911 and texted her son back, “I’m calling them now. U still in there. Answer our damn phone. Call them. Call me.”

He texted his mom at 2:39 AM, “Call them mommy. Now.”

 He added that he was in the bathroom: “He’s coming. I’m gonna die.”

He told Mina that many were hurt. When Mina asked whether the gunman was in the bathroom with them, Eddie replied, “He’s a terror.” And soon the last text popped up on Mina’s phone, “Yes.”

 Nearly 15 hours after Eddie’s last message, Mina is still waiting to hear from him, about him.

“His name has not come up yet and that’s scary. It’s just… It’s just, I got this feeling. I got a bad feeling,” said Mina.
