We already know how that goes. I will NEVER understand HOW police are allowed to "investigate" themselves, even though 99.999% of the time they find "that they did nothing wrong" and close the investigation. ..????? ACAB!!!!
@@ajsantana8780 They said it in the video about halfway through. At 5:51 pm the local police alerted secret service of a suspicious person. At 6:11 pm the shots are fired.
@@walii777 it makes sense in woman logic, they were just looking for an excuse to be located inside out of view. Too bad these excuses aren't gonna fly when they get investigated deeper. Things are coming out and whistleblowers are coming forward, they fked up big time
It’s because The angle of the slope was 1° over the maximum allowed slope that OSHA allows for Employees to walk on without a safety harness. The Secret Service safety harnesses actually were under recall from the manufacturer so they were not safe to use. They heard about this recall only an hour before Trump was set to speak. They didn’t have time to purchase an OSHA approved harness, So they were unable to secure that roof. Those roofs can get wet and slippery too, so they definitely made the right call, not to put their officers or agents at risk.
There is NO question "who should have secured the complex" no question whatsoever. The Secret Service is responsible. They are responsible for making sure SOMEONE is covering vantage points. Whether the local pd was supposed to do it or not, the Secret Service should have noticed there was no one there. They direct everything not the local pd. They never should have let the protectee (Trump) out of cover until all points were covered. They were the highest authority there that day, they make the rules and the responsibility lies mostly on them
Explain how the night befor some company tried to short sell 96 million in stock for Trumps company ,Truth Social one day before the assanation attempt , unless they knew something big was about to happen?
Pelosi thought it was time to dump DT stock & say Trump did it as part of her overall plan to frame him. You know that bridge back east which collapsed, you know Biden rode the train across daily to DC. Trump was responsible for that! Cuz he had the bottom trusses sawed half way because he heard Biden was riding it for old times
I'm a trader and the technical analysis indicated a long position, not a short. A small short position might have been hedging, but such a large position makes no sense. Unless you know something nobody else knows.
you would literally hear someone jumping and crawling on the roof. Have you ever had work done on your roof? It's super loud and each footstep is like bigfoot walking up there.
@@grinch45no, SweetSpot is right. Roofs have insulation, but that’s to help regulate inside temperature and keep the elements from getting in. Not to muffle sound. I’m in commercial real estate and have been in many buildings where people are walking on the roof above you. You can hear, and it’s loud.
Many commercial buildings have a 4-8' gap between the drop ceiling and the actual roof. In that gap will be HVAC and electrical. You are acting like this roof is just a pole building, and maybe it is, but you have no idea. Stop spreading fake news.
@@grinch45thermal insulation does very little to stifle sound. The building was basically a metal pole barn, which it would’ve been blatantly obvious there was something moving on the roof even if it had thermal insulation.
there was 1 building complex in the area. This is not like a NYC downtown area where there are buildings everywhere. It's literally 1 building complex.
SS claims it wasn't their responsibility and gave it to the local Police. The local Police claims they told the SS they didn't have the manpower to provide that security and that they were not in the building. That only leaves the County Sheriffs, or the State Police that were inside that two story building with counter snipers. So which one didn't see that kid on the roof only 4-5 feet below their position and about 45-50 feet to their left?
Why would anyone believe that they could get to that roof without being stopped? No one would believe that. So, he just happened to find the one roof that wasn't covered?
@@MinusEightyMeanwhile DHS put their own team in the building behind the patsy. The real grassy knoll is not the water tower. It’s the 2nd floor open window.
It's all so fishy to me. nothing ever happened, but the SS used to use our family's factory anytime a person of importance was visiting our city, ( mostly Presidents and candidates) as they had to drive past on the highway to get to downtown. My father was very cooperative and they always put snipers on the roof, just for the motorcade passing by at a fast speed, not a static figure on a stage. It was the highest building in an industrial area they had to pass. I mean, this was from the 70's and on. They knew they could use our roof. Have we learned nothing about the danger candidates are in from RFK's death? And Biden denying RFK, Jr. any protection until now. How horrible.
@@Mobius494 Not at that time, it was the 70's and 80's and 90's, and since the company has been sold. I would assume the new owners have more security around the building, but that was not the standard back then. it wasn't needed then.
I've made useful sincere comments about the ladder, the range finder, the paths taken, etc, but MORE THAN HALF the comments I post get deleted/censored by the youtube AI algorithm, for no discernible reason, about a minute after posting. WHAT'S GOING ON with youtube censorship this month?? 😒 Any idea how I can comment on videos without being deleted again and again and again and again?
Yeah I doubt it. Seeing as I see dozens of people talking about a ladder and such. You aren't being sensored but sometimes you won't see your posts on videos. I've noticed that before. Think it's just a glich thing.
It might not be your comments, but you. I had that happen. I was flagged for cyberbullying, but wasn’t told for what post. I checked my history bewildered and it was literally Lou the Chichi, Noodles the Pooch, Billi the talking cat, Penny the cat, 2 church sermons, Golden Girls best moments, and Bob Ross! After that, my comments were deleted for months.
@@vstefe1280 You mean a messed up kid who was told he'd be a hero? Please research the JFK assassination before you come back with more of your inane comments~
That bug me for awhile because they said that the Pennsylvania PATSY bought a 5ft Ladder at Home Depot...Apparently he never had to use it and boosted up on to the roof using an AC unit...there are several places of note where he can do this...Apparently the 10'-12' ladder in the picture was used by law enforcement to access the roof AFTER the incident...However this was still and OSHA Violation...Maybe we can get them to investigate this incident?
@@nathandanner4030 I saw a report saying he carried the Home Depot ladder and rifle for 1 mile on foot thru some wooded area in order to stash them ahead of time.
What’s really odd about this ladder detail is that the earliest interviews w/the local police representatives told reporters that the guy used a ladder to get on roof. But later in the day, they said he scaled the building. Finally, they said he used the ac unit. Yet, the guy removed everything from his pockets except a ladder receipt?
I’m not sure why commenters are complaining. This is the most detailed description of the incident yet. The biggest mistake was letting Trump take the stage. Secret Service were alerted at 5:52 p.m. and Trump took the stage at 6:00 p.m. Whoever in the state police placed the call at 5:52 p.m. and whoever in the secret service took the call and whoever’s decision it was to let Trump on stage at 6:00 p.m. have tough questions to answer. This is the biggest breakdown in communications since the JFK assassination.
@@lovewins8238 Burden of proof is on the ones making the extraordinary claims. We have pictures, video, audio, injuries, deaths, a gun, damage to property, and an easily recognizable way the shooting happened. Most alternatives to reality are based on rumors or grainy images.
This is even worse. The snipers in the building had a perfect view of him the entire time, they were just 20 feet away. The inside job part might be coming from the police department not from the Secret Service.
On their facebook, they report only having 21 officers and their last posts are about hiring more. Either they left their post for a donut or yeah......in on it
@@Leaninmyspleen. How...because Trump was allowed to go out while an alert was already in progress...and more importantly Trump was still at the podium for at least a minute while counter snipers had eyes on the guy. The SS are supposed to be a world premier organization...how would you explain it. Astrology - Mercury in retrograde?
Because Alejandro Majorca’s at his homeland security are now specifically involved in these details they were never in the past and just like the border he is there to mess it up on purpose
@@JayMcHueno one can cover their tracks when it comes to the government. They find everything. That's another reason why this makes absolutely no sense. The Democrats have so much to lose if Trump wins. They are scrambling and I truly believe they will do anything at this point. There's no way they allow this to be a fair election. I see thousands of mail-in-ballots coming in on the night of! We will go to bed with Trump winning just to wake up to Harris in the lead. Same as before!! 😢🙏🤔
Oh but he did have a footprint, his public footprint was two searches according to the FBI...basically, how far away was oswald when he shot and depression. If that wasnt the most ridiculously obvious setup by the FBI to paint this guy as a lone wolf, I dont know what is.
The building had no one in it. More important - The kid who plans the crime of the century wears shorts on a metal roof that was likely north of 100 degrees?
The trajectory of the bullet that killed Corey was upwards from the second floor of the building, not the roof . Audio analysis even to a layperson reveals two guns were used.
They also had an open window in the higher building and there were two different shooters based on audio analysis of the gun shots - keep investigating.
The trajectory of the bullets do not add up. Crooks position on the roof would explain how Corey got hit but the other two guys and the hydraulic lines on the equipment would require a different angle. Crooks would have had to been on the rightmost side of the roof. But that open window lines up perfectly with the trajectory of the shot that hit Trump and the two guys that survived. There was no police on that second floor. You’re going to tell me they wouldn’t have looked out those windows to see Crooks??? Especially with everyone yelling “he has a gun!”
The footage is so grainy and blurry that there is no way to confirm that what is being seen is a person. Also, the “movement” in the tower in the video is likely from heat distortion, not from actual movement on the tower. I agree with the commenter above that what we’re actually seeing is the shadow cast by the object on the top of the tower, not a person.
The secret service was ultimatly responsible for that roof ! No matter who they putup there . The secret service is supposed to go through a check list right before the rally to make sure every position is covered !
"How did the communication break down," the reporter asks at the conclusion of an incoherent word-salad report. It's difficult to hire good help anymore.
I don't buy for one minute they were on the second floor of that building because that would mean that crooks was laying on top of the building practically in front of them. Were they there they could have spit on him!
Most likely there was another shooter, shooting from the window. The window behind the gunman was the only open window after the shooting. That trans kid was just a distraction from the real shooter. The gunshots even sound completely different.
The counter-sniper(s) (reportedly) in the 2nd-story window (the 2nd-story window behind and above Crooks on the roof was wide open when the (Crooks) shots were fired). They could look directly down at Crooks on the roof not 25 feet away after they had been alerted minutes before he go his shots off. The first 3 shots at Trump have a distinctly different sound (muffled) than the next 4 shots (very clear). Those first 3 shots could have come from that open window (which would sound muffled), with Crooks firing the next 5 shots from the roof (in the open, so much more crisp sounding). The last shot was Crooks being killed. This smells like a cover-up.
It is amazing that none of those Secret Service guys were hurt, and no one else was hurt because of the last four bullets that were fired. Two of them went into the crowd.
So the snipers IN the building couldnt have looked out the window? The shooter was allowed to be there. That is THE ONLY explanation that makes any sense at all.
How is it that this kid could’ve had plans enacted 6 days prior and the director of SS not know of the shortage before hand? Incompetence? Nah… I think something more nefarious is at play.
holy crap first time I've seen any news get the location on the roof correct, everyone else is claiming he was at the other end but in video footage you can see the blood on that end. i thought he climbed the ladder that you can see behind some bushes on that same aerial footage with the blood stain but perhaps that ladder was put up by police.
This news report is insane. The reporter says police basically watched the whole thing. Then goes on to spew some gobldygook about miscommunication to cover for them.
Not to mention, that picture they took of him from behind, he doesn't appear to be carrying anything. So, at what point, and where was his rifle the whole time they were watching him. If it was in a backpack then he would had to have broken it down in order to conceal it. Which means at some point he had to re-assemble the rifle before getting in to position to shoot. However, the police saw non of this! This guy isn't Jason Bourne... smfh. At best this is a level of incompetence never witnessed before in all of human history or there are co-conspirators involved.
Why would police be inside a building during the rally? What use are they inside a building? What were they doing? Was there a police poker tournament going on?
Seems like the cops looking out the 2nd story window had a clear view of the roof. They even took a picture of the guy. So why was Trump not held back from going on the stage? There was like 20 minutes. Seems like the police in the building looking out the window should have been staying put to be able to radio over what the guy was doing. Did they run downstairs and try to get on the roof or was that two other police? Either way, why was Trump cleared to go on the stage?
Blame falls to the Director of U.S. Secret Service Kimberly A. Cheatle. It was her responsibility as DIRECTOR to direct all parties, to coordinate and assure communications were sure. She was lax on the job.
Trump is a former president do you think the secrete service give him the same level of protection as the president also republican are all for blue live matter do they care about everyone else aside from themselve
You realize that she was not there at the event nor had part in the planning of the event. She is headquarters, rarely involved in field operations anymore, especially something as small as a rally. Thats why there is an advance team that does all the planning and coordination which is usually done by a Special Agent In Charge. Your comment is like blaming the CEO of McDonalds because an employee on the other side of the country served bad food.
She was not in charge of this event. Of course she is the symbolic firing of the person at the top, of the organization in eroding the security level but I am far more interested in looking at the actual failures at the scene and accounting for the behavior and conduct of those at Butler in any security role - and most, most of all, who the Agent in Charge Was. Were they getting all reports by radio or secure cell line , all the data on the threat that everyone had a picture of 30 minutes before shooting. Why the Agent in Charge let Trump go out when they had a security threat that everyone was supposed to be looking for. What the link was between the Command Center and the Body Detail to directly defend Trump was. They spot the shooter 20 minutes before on another roof. What happened to that report? Or the snipers saying they had a person on a roof but they hadn't seen a weapon yet....and no one thought to think possible assassin on a roof, get Trump under cover??
@@guitar1950 local law enforcement could have fired guns into the ground non stop which could have alerted SS to get Trump offstage,they are at fault despite al the SS failures.
There’s no blame game. There’s no question of who’s responsible. It’s the SECRET SERVICE. Period. It is THEIR responsibility, THEIR duty to protect those they’re assigned to. Everyone else is 3rd party assistance and support at best, who can never be “passed” the responsibility.
The fact that NONE of the MSN pieces even MENTION yhe water tower is baffling. HEY EVERYONE PUT ALL YOUR FOCUS ON THE BUILDING WITH THE SLOPED ROOF. Ignore the WATER TOWER.
WHERE IS THE WATER TOWER VIDEO OF A PERSON ON TOP??? A video has come out of a person on top of the WATER TOER that has been taken down??? Sercret Service had surveillance of the entire area up to 1000 yards. ASK NOW, they are re-directing your thoughts...someone was on the water tower?????
Has anyone looked into if the shooter could even see over the peak of the roof? It looks like where the body was, he wasnt high enough on the roof to even see trump.
And perhaps the biggest question, from a personal protective security standpoint, WTH was Trump on that stage while all this was going on? They should have gotten him to safety THEN sorted out the threat after.
The shot that hit Trump came from that building. According to AI. The sounds are not the same different 1st 3 shots no echo, the next 5 or 6 they are echoing. Hmm?
