FBI releases new documents on Trump shooter Thomas Crooks
–
Neutral summary
The FBI has released newly unclassified documents about Thomas Matthew Crooks, who attempted to assassinate Donald Trump at a July 2024 rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. The files show Crooks used the alias “Bob Dole” to order suspicious packages, and an anonymous donor paid for his cremation. His father told investigators that Crooks “did not scream” at birth and was always quiet, while witnesses described him as a loner who made “hateful comments” about Trump. Attorney General Todd Blanche confirmed the FBI uncovered new information, and Trump said the “Crooked Joe Biden FBI didn’t do what they should have” regarding the shooter.
