More questions than answers!
Pennsylvania SWAT officers told ABC News that Secret Service never held a face-to-face briefing with them before former President Donald Trump’s rally.
You know, the rally where Thomas Crooks shot Trump, killed Corey Comperatore, and injured James Copenhaver and David Dutch.
The two sides never talked until after the shooting.
It was a critical part of the planning and communications failures that ended with a gunman killing one man, critically injuring two more and wounding Trump as he delivered a speech just days before accepting the Republican presidential nomination.”We were supposed to get a face-to-face briefing with the Secret Service members whenever they arrived, and that never happened,” said Jason Woods, lead sharpshooter on the SWAT team in Beaver County, Pennsylvania.”So I think that was probably a pivotal point, where I started thinking things were wrong because it never happened,” Woods said. “We had no communication.”
Woods expected more communication between them and the Secret Service.
I mean, who wouldn’t?
“I believe our team did everything humanly possible that day,” said Beaver County Chief Detective Patrick Young. “We talk a lot on SWAT that we as individuals mean nothing until we come together as a team.”
