Watch the video. Why would Crooks put his Home Depot ladder credit card purchase receipt from July 8 in his pocket on July 13th, 5 days later?

[Fido969]

He expected to be reimbursed by the Secret Service.

[spacejunkie2001]

perhaps he was expecting to be reimbursed upon completion of the job?

[mykroar]

To play devil’s advocate, I will put receipts in my wallet and forget about them. So while it’s not outside the realm of possibility something’s weird about it, it might be something as simply as that. There are still about a million other issues with the entire situation.

[CatOwner]

Maybe he needed the receipt to return the ladder for a refund.

I thought his pockets were empty. I guess it’s hard to keep anything straight as the government is withholding most details form us.

Meant to say Depot in the title, not Deport. Cotton picking autocorrect.

At one point, the ladder was described as an aluminum 5.5' dual platform, ladder. This is the only one meeting that description I was able to find at the Home Depot website.

(Maybe TMC's purchase made it the "best seller".)

[Dr. Franklin]

The better question is how did he get that ladder into the little car he drove to the event?

[mairdie]

The slob is in the same pants and didn’t clean the pockets out at night.

I expect our lawmakers to require registration on all assault ladders. Stat! With a ten tool limit on tool caddy.

[Darksheare]

It makes no logical sense to do that.

This dude is referencing my Senator Johnson for the date of a July 8th purchase. This is Johnson’s brief, where, on page six, he notes July 13 as the date. (And the ladder was not retrieved on the rally site.)

Why would anyone bring a receipt of something they bought to a assassin site..honestly who does that..what, was he expecting a refund from someone else at the scene

[mass55th]

Maybe he never took the receipt out of his pants pocket when he made the purchase, and wore the same pants to the event. I'm more interested in what day he carried that ladder into the park. Was it a day or two before the rally, or did he carry it in on the 13th? And if it was brought in a day or two earlier, why didn't law enforcement find it when they searched the area in the days ahead of the rally, or on what should have been regular rounds to secure the site on the day the rally was occurring? You don't make one round and clear the site. You have to make periodic rounds to make sure the site remains secure up to, and through the rally.

If he brought the ladder in on the 13th, and nobody noticed him or stopped him, it wasn't a coincidence. It was deliberate. And how does a civilian fly a private drone over what is supposed to be a secured site two hours before the rally began? To me that's proof that no law enforcement on the ground gave two shits about securing the site, or were told to stand down. Anybody that has been involved in security, securing sites, searching grounds looking for potential problems, etc., would not have missed the obvious.

Crooks didn’t need a ladder. He climbed to the roof using the air conditioning unit there.

[Gene Eric]

“After the training exercise, you’ll be reimbursed for the ladder”

[Vermont Lt]

Oh, I know the answer for this:

He bought the ladder and stuck the receipt in his pocket. Then he tossed the pants he was wearing in the corner. On the morning of the shooting he put those same pants on again.

I do this all the time. (Except the get folded and tossed on the chair in my bedroom.)

And no…I am not a slob, nor am I shooting anyone.

[Paladin2]

He was going to get the fey Wray to pay his expense account?

[ansel12]

Why does everyone think he used the ladder that day, he may have used it for checking out things during prep (like tree vantage points or to stash something), or even never used it at all.
