Acting Secret Service Director Ronald Rowe Jr. revealed the detailed timeline and critical moments that transpired on the day Trump was shot.
Rowe admitted that Secret Service personnel were unaware that Thomas Crooks had a firearm during former President Trump’s speech until gunshots rang out.
“At 6:00 PM, former President Trump took the stage to begin remarks. And based on what I know right now, neither the Secret Service counter-sniper teams nor members of the former President’s Security Detail had any knowledge that there was a man on the roof of the AGR building with a firearm. It is my understanding that personnel were not aware the assailant had a firearms until they heard gunshots,” said Rowe.
The Secret Service snipers were on a roof that had a higher elevation than the roof Crooks was on.
The snipers were using scopes, as they always do.
I find it impossible to comprehend how people on the ground, looking up at Crooks on the roof, could see what the Secret Service snipers could not see.
