Forensic analysis suggests at least 2 weapons were fired at Trump rally
CNN ^ | 07-14-24

Posted on 07/28/2024 2:21:17 PM PDT by Marcell

Forensic analysis suggests that as many as three weapons were fired at the Trump rally in Butler, Pennsylvania on Saturday.

The FBI said Sunday that the shooter acted alone.

The first three shots were consistent with alleged weapon A, the next five were consistent with alleged weapon B, and the final “acoustic impulse” was emitted by a possible weapon C, per audio analysis by Catalin Grigoras, director of the National Center for Media Forensics at the University of Colorado in Denver, and Cole Whitecotton, Senior Professional Research Associate at the same institution.

Audio analysis has also confirmed that the gunman was about 360 to 393 feet from the podium, according to forensics expert Robert Maher.

This conclusion aligns with CNN’s analysis that the gunman was on a rooftop 393 to 492 feet from the podium when shots rang out.

The shots exemplify a “crack-pop” sequence, typical when a supersonic bullet passes a microphone, before the “arrival of the corresponding muzzle blast sound,” Maher, who teaches audio forensics at Montana State University, told CNN.

The time between these markers places the shooter 110 to 120 meters from the microphone, Maher said, assuming the bullet is moving at an average speed of 800 to 1,000 meters per second, the equivalent of 2,600 to 3,280 feet per second.

CNN’s Hannah Rabinowitz, Evan Perez, and Ryan Young contributed reporting.

Have you heard the audio from a more recently released video shot by one of the attendees? It is taken from what appears to be maybe 150’ to 200’ from the shooter’s position. There are clearly three shots at first that sound very different from the five that follow. The first three are spaced apart, as if carefully aimed, and more muffled as if they’re farther away (or perhaps taken from inside the room that had the open window? - just speculating), and the five shots that follow are fired in quick succession and sound much closer, or at least clearer. There is a significant difference between the two groups of shots.

Than, there is also the clip of officers on top of the roof after the incident, and they clearly state that they’ve found FIVE shell casings, to the right of Crook’s body, where you would expect them to be after being ejected to the right. Yet 20 minutes later, they suddenly “find” three more, only those are on the LEFT side of his body. With all the other ineptitude on display that day, maybe they just missed them, but I think it’s a highly suspicious correlation that the audio shows a clear difference between a group of three shots followed by a group of five, then the responding officers find five casings initially, but magically discover an additional three later.

Despite all the cell phone videos of the shooter - not one catches the shots being fired.

I find that to be very odd.

Prediction: The shooter was sent from the future to protect Trump from the DOJ snipers.

For all I know, they’d laid some extra casings on the roof. I don’t trust none of these people.

16 seconds from first shot to last shot.

The BBC says it was 26 seconds.

It should be easy to determine, using audio from one of the many videos.

According to the acoustic reports, the only shot the counter sniper team took was 25 seconds after the first shot. He could have sprayed 100s of rounds in that time. Just seems odd if he was going out he didn’t do it with a blaze of glory like other serial killers.

This site claims to show a muzzle flash out of one of the windows below the shooter:

The same site has a short video with audio and an audiograph to know when the shots were fired, but I can’t detect the flash. May be faked, but I don’t know a way to examine frame by frame:

That we know of yet. Maybe they aren’t fans of YouTube or doesn’t know how to download them. There were tons of people raising their phones filming him on the roof. Some were older people. I’m sure some will pop up.

An oddly-behaved woman behind Trump (some claim is an FBI assistant director) seemed to verbally signal (sign moved to cover her mouth) and pulled out her phone out to record the shots.

Soon after, the first three shots, (sounded muffled, possibly from a .308 inside the building - no echo) equally measured and steady (likely even with the stage as the trajectory was not angled enough to have been fired from the roof - photo captures a level trajectory as it had passed Trump) which resulted in several hits...one nicking Trump’s ear, the next hit a man in the bleachers on Trump’s left, and the final burst the hydraulics on a speaker crane.

Unlike the first volley, the next four shots (possibly .223) which had a distinct echo, were excited and unevenly rapid-fire, likely from the Patsy on the roof, fatally striking Corey Comperatore and injuring another person in the bleachers on Trump’s right.

The eight shot was much closer to the microphone and occurs at the same time as the echo from the final shot of the previous volley can be heard.

There was speculation that this came from someone identified as “Gimble guy” who was said to have given MSDNC credentials. The white van that was towed had an MSNBC sticker on the back window with Arizona plates and had been reportedly found parked near the water tower. There is local news reportedly showing the van being towed from an adjacent neighborhood (interview with a local man). One of the white vans was reported to have been registered to a dead man. The patsy’s “car” was reportedly found 10 miles away and he had come on a bike which has been seen in photos and video prior to the shooting next to a backpack.

The final shot was the sniper taking out the patsy and is totally unlike any of the other shots.

https://x.com/TheMilkBarTV/status/1812731727053488418

It’s clear that the snipers were instructed not to take out the patsy until Trump had been properly “Put in the bullseye” (Biden) and “Eliminated” (Rep. Dan Goldman, D-NY).

At least 10 witnesses pointed out that someone was on the water tower which would suggest that they were stationed there (since a “Jack Ruby” would have been impossible in this scenario) as “clean-up” to take out the patsy (easiest line of sight to the roof) rather than the shot (more than 300-yards) from behind the closest snipers.

Another attendee claims that the final shot came from a sniper team inside the cow barn:

Typical triangulation of fire and photographers were perfectly stationed to get the “money shot” of Trump’s head exploding into pink mist with both CNN & MSDNC cameras rolling to ensure their live audiences could see the event. Coincidence?

Since they know they can’t even import enough foreigners to make up for their own losses to beat Trump, they’re back to the standard CIA playbook of assassination to take him out.

Since 2016, they’ve been running a typical communist color revolution started and spread from universities, just like the 1960s, so it’s not too much to suggest this was another coup attempt like Operation Mongoose via domestic MK-Ultra patsy “loners”.

Just like the Kennedy assassination, they’re now in full CYA cover-up mode (hoping that the resignation of Kimberly Cheatle would take the heat off of them and the people would go back to sleep):

John Cullen makes a pretty good case for 11 shots and at least three shooters besides the sniper team.

I remember his channel back during the Las Vegas shooting. Some people were suspicious of him being a FED or something. He also had an alias John E. Hoover for some reason and still does.
