Nothing verified yet, but a few things are being reported:
- The SS sniper had Crooks in his sights (approximately 40 seconds prior to Crooks taking a shot?) but was not given the OK to shoot him. That's why he didn't shoot until after Crooks started shooting
- A local policeman climbed the ladder to the roof where Crooks was on the roof but retreated when Crooks aimed the gun at him
Multiple experts are highly critical of the security team and security plan. It doesn't take an expert to see how flustered several of the women in the security team were when they were getting Trump to the car, or that small women don't make as good of a shield for a President as a big man. But, those are small potatoes compared to the questions they'll need to answer about how Crooks got into that position and the apparently slow response when the threat of Crooks was identified and communicated to the SS.
