President Donald Trump was almost killed last summer, and we still don’t know much about the motives behind the attack.
There are also indications that shooter Thomas Matthew Crooks did not act alone on July 13 in Butler, Pennsylvania and that the FBI is obstructing attempts to investigate the incident, which left one man dead.
Doug Hagmann has been leading a team of six other investigators in examining the assassination attempt on behalf of a private client, according to a Thursday interview with the New York Post.
They’ve been conducting geofencing analysis of phones and other devices that did not belong to Crooks but were found at his home, at the rifle range where he participated in target practice, at the Trump rally in Butler, and at his alma mater, Bethel Park High School.
His team has also interviewed over 100 people over the course of their six-month investigation.
Hagmann told the outlet, “We don’t think he acted alone.”
“This took a lot of coordination,” he asserted.
“In my view, Crooks was handled by more than one individual, and he was used for this,” Hagmann added. “And I wouldn’t preclude the possibility that there were people at the rally itself helping him.”
Hagmann claimed that he was twice escorted to the Butler County line and told to leave as his team investigated.
Is the FBI doing everything in its power to learn how and why Crooks was able to shoot Donald Trump?
He believes the people who escorted him were either federal agents or a private security detail.
“One can assist in an operation like this by omission or standing down,” Hagmann added. “There are people still out there involved in this case that need to be brought to justice.”
Hagmann isn’t the only person raising concerns about possible federal obstruction.
Rep. Clay Higgins, a Republican from Louisiana, has also been investigating the attempted assassination for months.
Unlike other investigators, he thinks there is only one shooter and that prescription drugs played a role in Crooks’ behavior.
“Something happened to make him go crazy, and that’s why I think it might have been pharmaceuticals,” Higgings told the Post.
“He performed an attempted assassination, and he was committed all the way through — to death,” he continued. “He was not acting erratic, but he was a wild lunatic at the same time, incredibly calculating and incredibly smart.”
In any case, Higgins also said that the FBI has repeatedly obstructed his investigation.
America broadly knows that the entrenched interests in our government are not necessarily fans of Trump and probably would have wanted now-former Vice President Kamala Harris in office instead.
As more and more days, weeks, and months pass without the public knowing a clear motive or even many basic details about the assassination attempt of our commander-in-chief, the FBI only makes itself look more and more complicit.
