Wasn’t there supposed to be a police sniper or two in the building from which Crooks fired? If they left their post what did they do with their sniper rifles while they wandered around the building? I would think once a sniper rifle was set up in position, it wouldn’t be moved until the rally was over and Trump had left the grounds.

Cheatle started this ‘word salad’ by saying security was posted inside the building whose roof was used as Crook’s perch. This appears to me to be totally false and meant to mislead, confuse and draw attention away from the second floor window. The security detail was supposed have been on the roof of the one story building used by Crooks. However, that detail appears to have taken it upon themselves to move to the open window on the second floor of the building directly to the rear and parallel to the one used by Crooks because the detail concluded the lower roof was ‘too hot,’ which I label as BS. That roof is either white or painted with aluminum paint. Anyone who has put their hand on a black and then a white painted car out in the sun appreciates the temperature differential between dark and light surfaces. Then again, Crooks didn’t appear to be deterred by laying spine on the roof surface. When the Congressional detail visited the site and shot a camera out of the second floor window onto the roof below, the entire roof used by Crooks is visible from the second floor window. The story regarding the two security officers stationed at the window keeps changing. First, they said the roof was too hot so they moved inside the two story building. Then they said both abandoned their second story post to chase down the shooter, JUST before the shooter move to the roof and took his position on the lower roof, which would have been clearly visible from the second floor window. Then they said only one of the security guys left their post to chase down the shooter. However, there is no reason to believe that the one remaining guy could not have seen Crooks on the roof below the window and to the left. Now they claim their job was not to watch Crooks’ roof but to keep their eyes glued to the rally crowd over at the stage area. I believe some of the rounds directed at the stage area came out of the second story window that these clowns occupied. They have tried to confuse the hell out of situation as to what was going on inside that widow. Bottom line: There is no way in that a ‘good guy’ performing security at the second floor window would have missed Crooks moving around and setting up on the roof below the window. Find the video of the Congressional visit and you will clearly see for yourself how visible the lower roof was from the second story window. I think the first three rounds sound ‘muffled’ to me, which suggests the shooter(s) were ‘professional’ and took the first three shots from the second floor and back from the window opening. If you have ever shot a gun from inside a building, you will appreciate how the bullet signatures are captured by the room from which they are shot. That fact supports the ‘muffling’ that happens with a shot from inside a room and back from the window opening. Compare the signature of the first three rounds with the floury that follows. Note the sharp clarity of subsequent signatures verses the first three rounds.
