Parents of Trump Shooter Continue With Major Legal Step as Feds Look Into What They Know: Report
Gateway Pundit ^ | 8/27/24 | Jack Davis

Posted on 08/27/2024 6:18:54 AM PDT by hardspunned

The parents of Thomas Matthew Crooks have hired a high-powered legal firm as the investigation continues into their son’s July 13 attempt to assassinate former President Donald Trump.

The firm of Quinn Logue, which is based in Pittsburgh, will represent Matthew Crooks and his wife Mary, according to the Daily Mail.

The firm, founded by some of Pittsburgh’s top attorneys, says it specializes in “criminal defense and civil suits including wrongful death and personal injury.”

The Mail, citing a supposed anonymous family member, reported that as the FBI investigates the shooting, the agency remains uncertain exactly how much the gunman’s parents knew about his plans.

$500 an hour? Yeah, I’ve seen the family estate, no problem. Pittsburgh’s branch of Lawfare. They are working hard to nail down the cover up from this angle.

The Dad knew something was wrong. He knew something.

The fact the family is hiring a law firm to investigate this speaks volumes about the FBI, the SS, and likely the CIA.

The only question the FBI has for them is “Why did your son miss?”

Thoroughly investigating the parents in this case should have started on day 1. It’s right there in the beginning of Criminal Investigations 101.

Thoroughly investigating the FBI, SS and CIA in this case should have started on day 1.

The bad guys want you to blame the parents and the guns and you're falling right in line.

Oh, you betcha they are. These people would be well advised to spend their last dime on representation if need be. The deep state has no interest in accountability and these guys are the most obvious to take the rap

Cover-up.

Just the first step in the Marina Oswald witness shut-up program.

Well, they are going to get sued. By the guy that died, and those injured. So I get getting a lawyer. Getting this level of lawyer, as my 11 year old would say, is Sus.

“Let me close with this. Donald Trump is a genuine threat to this nation. That is not hyperbole. He’s a threat to our freedom. He’s a threat to our democracy. He is literally a threat to the America that we stand for.”

https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/speeches-remarks/2024/06/29/remarks-by-president-biden-at-a-campaign-reception-east-hampton-ny/

“We’re done talking about the debate, it’s time to put Trump in a bullseye”

https://www.politico.com/live-updates/2024/07/08/congress/defiant-biden-tells-donors-were-done-with-the-debate-00166834

“the judge said, Trump’s words were ‘an implicit call for imminent violence or lawlessness” that is not protected by presidential immunity or the First Amendment.’

“The D.C. Circuit agreed with the lower court’s finding”

Pennsylvania authorities should submit a case to a grand jury.

I think that is likely. From the accounts I've read, it was the Dad's gun.

1. Does the family even have enough assets to make it worthwhile for someone to sue them?

2. If they do, then anyone with half a brain would have umbrella insurance coverage to protect their assets … which means the insurance company, not the family, would be paying for the lawyers.

More importantly, who ultimately funds their defense? Are they being paid to shut it down and shut mom and dad up?

You raise a good point, however would typical umbrella coverage cover something like this? This wasn't an accidental discharge at home or on a hunt...

That’s about what my patent attorney charges.

If I were them, I’d also hire a preemptive attorney.

In these days of predatory lawfare the innocent must be prepared to defend against attack.

(Doubly so if they aren’t innocent!)
