A recently discovered video shows Thomas Crooks strolling around the Trump rally in Butler, Pennsylvania on July 13, approximately two hours prior to the attempted assassination of Trump.
The footage, posted by a vendor, captures Crooks walking outside the security perimeter at 4:26 pm.
This was shortly before he ascended onto a roof and fired eight shots at Trump and rally attendees at 6:12 pm.

@ironcladusa Terrifying moment… looking back at my videos from the PA Butler Trump rally on 7/13/24. We were there just trying to sell our patriotic hats from my small business. Captured a video of Thomas Matthew Crooks at 4:26pm, just before the assassination attempt occurred. Interesting he was wearing shorts instead of pants, which he later had on, and he has no bags with him at this moment. @Fox News @Donaldtrumpjr @TuckerCarlsonDaily @Candace Owens @Turning Point USA @CBS @nbcnews @ABC News #Trump2024 #TrumpRally #BreakingNews #NewsAlert #WitnessVideo #PAButler #MustSee #NewFootage #RealDonaldTrump ♬ Creepy and simple horror background music(1070744) – howlingindicator
Here is a map of where Crooks likely walked around near the vendors:
Jack, it looks like this video was taken outside the secured area somewhere in the red oval.

Crooks was seen strolling through the merchandise area shortly after operating a drone over the fairgrounds between 3:50 and 4:05 pm.
That area, merchandise row and the adjacent grass parking lots, is the general area where my photo of what appears to be a drone was flown in the time frame law enforcement says Crooks flew his drone:https://t.co/MfGyMAScfI

TGP reporter Kristinn Taylor took a photo of Crooks’ drone at 3:54 pm in the general area of merchandise row and the adjacent grass parking lots.
Thomas Crooks managed to ascend to the roof adjacent to Trump’s Butler, Pennsylvania rally and took aim at Trump.
A bullet skimmed past President Trump’s ear during the rally, resulting in a fatality as one rally attendee was struck in the head. Additionally, two other attendees sustained injuries, with one in critical condition.
Earlier this month, bodycam footage was released showing a police officer being lifted onto a roof to confront Thomas Crooks, who was about to open fire on Trump and rally attendees.
The footage, obtained by Fox News, captures a Butler Township police officer being hoisted onto the roof at 6:10 ET, just moments before the shooting. The officer comes face-to-face with Crooks and quickly retreats.
He then runs to alert other officers about the gunman on the roof. It’s worth noting that the video is silent until the 1:38 mark.
“F*cking this close, bro. Dude, he turned around on me,” the officer who was hoisted on the roof said.

Even after the shots were fired, it took police five minutes to reach Thomas Crooks.
“Before you motherf*ckers came up here, I popped my head up there like an idiot by myself, dude,” the police officer who was hoisted onto the roof said. “Then he turned around and I f*cking dropped, and I started f*cking, I was calling out, ‘Bro, f*cking on top of the roof.’ F*cking, we’re not on the same frequency?”

A Secret Service sniper and a local SWAT officer finally shot Thomas Matthew Crooks after he took several shots at Trump and rallygoers.

As with the Warren Report, the “magic” bullet and Lee Harvey Oswald. We will never know the extent of Secret Service and FBI collusion with Crooks.
Criminal Conspirators and Traitors fill the ranks of the Demoncrap Party who want a Communist Style Dictatorship and if they hold on to power any longer that is what they will achieve in America!
Kick all of these scums to the curb!
