The FBI has announced that the shooter, Thomas Matthew Crooks, acted alone in the recent assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.
Crooks, a 20-year-old from Bethel Park, Pennsylvania, was identified as the gunman who managed to scale a roof approximately 200 yards from where Trump was speaking, firing shots that left the former president injured and caused the death of one rally attendee and critically injured two others. Secret Service agents quickly neutralized Crooks, who was killed at the scene.
Despite the FBI’s assertion that Crooks acted independently, they have been unable to access his cell phone for further information, citing technical difficulties. This claim has been met with widespread skepticism and criticism on social media.
Many users question the FBI’s inability to unlock the phone, considering the agency’s advanced technological capabilities. Some users have even suggested that the FBI might be concealing information or have ulterior motives, fueling conspiracy theories and mistrust.
The discussion has intensified doubts about the FBI’s conclusion that Crooks acted alone, especially in the absence of potential evidence from his phone. Critics argue that without access to the phone, it is premature to definitively state that he had no accomplices or external influences.
The FBI suddenly can’t figure out how to get into someone’s phone.

The FBI reportedly can’t get into the shooter’s cell phone, who they state “acted alone.”

The FBI could find every single grandma on January 6th but can’t “unlock” the phone of Trump’s shooter?
Yeah, not buying the bullshit and you shouldn’t either.

The FBI can’t figure out whose cocaine was in the White House.
The FBI can’t find the DNC bomber.
The FBI can’t open the shooter’s phone.
See a pattern?
