Was Trump assassination suspect Thomas Crooks part of a shadowy criminal network? A bombshell new report suggests the 20-year-old shooter might not have acted alone in the near-fatal July attempt on the former president’s life.
This could get very interesting indeed…
At a glance:
- New York Post report suggests Thomas Matthew Crooks didn’t act alone in Trump assassination attempt
- Private investigator Doug Hagmann claims a “criminal network” was involved based on interviews and geofencing data
- Crooks was described by acquaintances as happy, intelligent and “nerdy,” contradicting lone wolf theory
- Heritage Foundation’s Oversight Project tracked Crooks’ connections to a Washington D.C. FBI office
- Investigators suspect possible conspiracy and cover-up in the July 13 Butler, Pennsylvania incident
Evidence Points to Larger Conspiracy
The attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump at his July 13 rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, may have involved more players than previously thought. Private investigator Doug Hagmann, hired to investigate the case, concluded that shooter Thomas Matthew Crooks likely had help from a “criminal network” rather than acting as a lone gunman.
“We don’t think he acted alone,” Hagmann stated after conducting extensive interviews and analyzing geofencing data around the assassination attempt.
The findings directly challenge the official narrative that has largely portrayed Crooks as a troubled individual who planned and executed the attack independently.
And if he didn’t act alone, it explains a lot about what happened…including the weird cover up from Secret Service. Seriously, why haven’t we heard more about this guy?

Shooter Profile Raises Questions
People who knew Crooks have consistently described him as happy, intelligent, and “nerdy” – hardly matching the profile of someone who would orchestrate such a high-profile assassination attempt. These characterizations have fueled skepticism about whether Crooks possessed the skills, resources, or motivation to plan such an attack without outside influence.
Xavier Harmon, another investigator cited in the report, expressed doubt about Crooks’ intentions. “I don’t think he set out to kill the president. My guess is, he messed with the wrong individuals about what they were going to do and it was different from what he thought it was going to be,” Harmon said.
Investigative reporters and special operations experts believe Crooks may have been groomed by handlers who prepared and supported him. The operation’s complexity suggests coordination and manipulation that would have been difficult for Crooks to manage alone.
Potential Cover-Up Concerns
The Heritage Foundation’s Oversight Project utilized mobile ad data to track Crooks’ connections, reportedly uncovering potential links to an FBI office in Washington, D.C. This revelation has intensified speculation about possible federal involvement or awareness of the plot before it unfolded.
Mark Sigaroos, another source quoted in the report, compared the situation to historical conspiracy theories: “It’s presented like an open-and-shut case like, ‘Oh, he went crazy,’ but it doesn’t really add up. It’s like JFK. Do we think we’ve become so modern that wouldn’t happen again?”
Hagmann suggests a potential cover-up is underway, with some individuals involved in the case escaping justice.
