Good morning. It's Wednesday, January 18. Patrol vehicles sit this morning outside Orlando Regional Medical Center, where the man accused of killing an Orlando police officer was taken after his arrest Tuesday night in the end of a massive manhunt.

A federal prosecutor argued that the widow of the Pulse nightclub shooter knew about her husband's plan and failed to do anything to stop it.
