• The 9th shot fired on J13 was from a Butler SWAT operator from the ground about 100 yards away from the AGR building. Shot 9 hit Crooks’ rifle stock and fragged his face/neck/right shoulder area from the stock breaking up. The SWAT operator who took this shot was a total badass; when he had sighted the shooter Crooks as a mostly obscured by foliage moving target on the AGR rooftop, he immediately left his assigned post and ran towards the threat, running to a clear shot position directly into the line of fire while Crooks was firing 8 rounds. On his own, this ESU SWAT operator took a very hard shot, one shot. He stopped Crooks and importantly, I believe the shot damaged the buffer tube on Crooks’ AR. I won't be certain of this until I can examine Crooks’ rifle, but I'm 99% sure, based upon reliable eye-witness ESU tactical officers who observed Crooks’ rifle before the FBI harvested it as evidence. This means that if his AR buffer tube was damaged, Crooks’ rifle wouldn't fire after his 8th shot.
• Crooks “went down” from his firing position when shot 9 was fired, and the SWAT officer was certain of his hit. According to the ESU SWAT operator, Crooks recovered after just a few seconds, and “popped back up”.
• The 10th (and, I believe, final) shot was fired from the southern counter-sniper team. I will not be 100% certain of this until further investigation. However, I am quite sure that the USSS southern counter-sniper team fired the killing shot, which, according to my investigation, entered somewhere around the left mouth area and exited the right ear area. Instant over. This entry-exit aligns with USSS southern counter-sniper team position.

I enjoy contemplating the shock of those who planned to kill Crooks once Trump was shot - I imagine their faces when that Butler SWAT shot Crooks before the kid could 'finish the job.' Note that SWAT was intentionally positioned where the kid would be mostly obscured by foliage from his vantage point. So the SWAT 'left his position' when the would-be-assassins who planned this didn't anticipate it. Once he shot the kid 'too soon,' then the other SWAT shot because he wanted optics to 'look right' (can't have the Bulter SWAT shoot twice while standing in the line of fire while other SWAT watches, from the saftey of their 'sloped' rooftops, through their scopes). Obama et. al. to plotters, "You had ONE job...."
So many questions arise from this part of Higgins report….
- “Shot 9 hit Crooks’ rifle stock and fragged his face/neck/right shoulder area from the stock breaking up.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Is there a clear picture of the gun? The only ones I’ve seen were quite fuzzy ones that show the gun quite a distance away from Crooks body…. For that matter, it doesn’t seem that there has been an explanation of how the gun got that far away from his body so one assumes that Crooks left it there and moved to the right of his original position before the shot that killed him…. or the gun was moved after Crooks was shot and when SS first got to his position (perhaps moving it as a matter of protocol to get it a safe distance away from the shooter).
- “Crooks recovered after just a few seconds, and “popped back up”.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When Crooks popped back up, did he move from his original shooting position? I’m still trying to figure out how the gun was so far away from his body. If Crooks left it there and was moving to his right after shot 9, was he trying to activate the remote to create the explosion diversion as part of an escape plan? Where was the remote found?
- “The 10th (and, I believe, final) shot was fired from the southern counter-sniper team.”

PDJT said in his discussion with Elon Musk that he was shot from ‘about 400 yards away’. The actual position of the 2nd sniper team is so at odds with an estimate of 400 yards that one wonders where that number comes from. PDJT makes the 400 yard estimate at 1:02:15 on this recording of the Musk-PDJT interview…. https://rumble.com/v5aq8xp-donald-trump-elon-musk-interview-live.html
One last point with this... I’m fairly sure that I saw pictures of bullet damage to Crooks leg. How did that happen given the explanation for the other two shots?
