Acting Secret Service Director Testimony Challenged by Local Law Enforcement [VIDEO]

Local law enforcement officials are denying claims that the Secret Service assigned them to cover the rooftop from where an assassin shot at former President Donald Trump during a campaign rally in Pennsylvania last month.

Testifying before Congress, Acting Secret Service Director Ronald Rowe testified that local police snipers were positioned inside a nearby building and could have seen the attacker, Thomas Matthew Crooks, if they had stayed put. .

A map provided by Sen. Chuck Grassley's office shows the area of ​​responsibility of the Beaver County Emergency Services Unit, which was assisting the Secret Service that day. The map clearly indicates that the roof was not within its designated coverage area.

Senator Grassley has written a letter to Director Rowe, seeking further clarification on whether local law enforcement was indeed assigned to monitor the roof.

He also requested additional information about a site briefing that local law enforcement claims never happened, but Rowe insists it did.

Grassley also asked if the Secret Service had any prior eye contact with Crooks before opening fire. Rowe maintained that Secret Service snipers did not see Crooks on the roof before the incident, a claim that is now disputed, as a video of one of the injured victims shows someone running across the roof.

Grassley's letter included an August 16 deadline for Director Rowe to respond, followed by the following 8 points.

1. Provide a site diagram showing where all local and federal law enforcement snipers were positioned and their assigned coverage areas, along with sniper positions throughout the day.
2. Do the photographs and diagrams referenced above conflict with Secret Service records of how local snipers were to be positioned and how the AGR building was to be covered? Explain and provide all records.
3. Describes, in detail, how the Beaver County and Butler County meter sniper teams were assigned to their positions on the second floor of the AGR complex and their respective coverage areas. Did the Secret Service assign or approve the location of the counter snipers at the AGR complex? If so, when, by whom and how was the instruction given?
4. Are there Secret Service records indicating that the local snipers were supposed to be inside, not outside, the AGR building? Provide all records.
5. Regarding your testimony, who told the Secret Service that the building was “going to be covered”? Who participated in the “face to face” meeting you referred to?
6. Did the Secret Service go through and inspect the AGR building as part of their advanced security plan prior to the July 13th event? If so, describe when and list all local, state and federal law enforcement agencies present. If not, why not?
7. Did the Secret Service go through and screen the AGR building as part of their advanced security plan before the July 13th event? If so, describe when and list all local, state and federal law enforcement agencies present. If not, why not?
8. Did any federal law enforcement personnel assigned to the July 13 event see a person on the roof of the AGR building at any time before the gunman opened fire? If so, which agency? Please explain in detail with timestamps.

Although nearly a month has passed since the July 13 assassination attempt, many questions remain unanswered about how the Secret Service failed to secure the building from which the assailant fired at Trump, and he almost had his death televised live.
