Judicial Watch: FBI Records Reveal Crooks’ Emails with Deputy...
Judicial Watch announced today that it forced the release of 48 heavily redacted pages from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit revealing that a Butler County Sheriff’s deputy exchanged emails with would-be Trump assassin Thomas Crooks prior to the July 13, 2024, shooting in Butler, Pennsylvania. The records also indicate that a Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) officer recovered a “gray remote device” with an antenna from Crooks’ pocket after he was killed.
The records also show that a medic with the Beaver County Emergency Services Unit told the FBI that she was on the roof of the American Glass Research (AGR) building examining Crooks’s body when she was informed that a police canine had “hit” on the building and she was told to evacuate the roof where Crooks’s body remained.
