Very interesting development. The PA State Police Commissioner Paris claims there was a Butler County Emergency Services Unit of 'counter snipers' posted at the second floor window but for some reason BOTH individuals left their post to look for Crooks just before the shooting. Was this time enough for a bad guy shooting team to assume the ESU position? Paris didn't indicate if the original counter snipers returned and reassumed their post or just disappear or who ordered them away from their post in the first place. It just adds another layer of confusion to the Butler shooting. I still maintain that whoever was on the second floor at the time of the shooting were bad guys shooting toward the Trump stage area. I can't say if the first round came from Crooks on the roof or from the second floor window, but perhaps forensic ballistic analysis can nail it down.

I just read the opposite somewhere yesterday in another article.
It said, when a suspicious person is spotted, all agents remain at their posts, instead of searching for the person.
Because that person might be trying to draw them away from their posts.

posted at the second floor window
The above says they were stationed with a view from the roof top.

“with a view from the rooftop where alleged shooter Thomas Crooks fired at Trump.”
the local counter snipers were on that very roof, left and Thomas went up there?
or were the snipers on another building with view OF the rooftop Thomas was soon up on?

Who pulls an overwatch position to perform regular watch tasks? That leaves the whole field of operation exposed.

Think of this for a conspiracy theory...
The deep state decides to get BOTH Trump and Biden out of the race. Biden is just getting too unreliable and senile and might accidently say something he shouldn't about their plans, and Trump has always been a huge threat to them. The gullible young man they contacted online and trained was supposed to "take care" of Trump on Saturday but failed, what should have been an easy shot. But the Biden plan worked well enough, just slip him something to simulate a health scare, and he drops out the race, maybe hangs on for a month or two before dying "of natural causes".
Problem is that the deep state finds themselves only halfway to their goal. So, do they throw everything behind Kamala and just hope for the best or take another crack at Trump?

A better explanation: Hanlon’s Razor - “never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.” In other words, rather than questioning people’s intentions, question their competence.
