Sorry it took longer than I expected, but I got sidetracked for a bit. Anyways, here is Rev. 15. Fingers crossed we’ve got all of the bugs worked out. Thanks again for devoting the time to reviewing it.

Do we know the status of the (fake) FBI investigation? Is it closed? I ask because if it’s closed, I can make new attempts to talk to some people who wouldn’t talk to me before.

I haven’t heard anything new about the FBI investigation since their October 28th update. They appear to be MIA.
The USSS report is laughable, to say the least. Some findings read as if they are trying to blame local LE without actually blaming local LE.

“This internal review, which is being shared with Congress and other oversight entities, is documented in a classified report that provides a comprehensive evaluation of the agency’s operational failures surrounding the event.”
“Agency supervisors reported that some equipment they had expected would be in place for the event to eliminate line-of-sight issues were not present at the time the former President arrived.”
A chainsaw to cut down the tree?
“Communications Deficiencies”
It is not mentioned that there was no FirstNet truck on site, although such an additional cell tower was used at the 2020 rally.
“The Secret Service was aware that a separate, local emergency services command post would be established near the agency’s Security Room.”
That was actually about 140 meters, wasn’t it?

It was actually over 300 m.

Absolutely! And we can clearly see the backpack in question in multiple bodycams, same as the one produced by the FBI.
What isn’t clear, though, is if the agent was referring specifically to this particular backpack amongst all kinds of things strewn about the rooftop. I posit that because they already knew he had a backpack, as it was reported over radio traffic prior to the incident, so that was already a given, he likely would not be asking about the backpack and would be curious as to the multitude of other items all about the roof unrelated to a backpack or a gun. Note of interest with the backpack though, it appears to me to show no signs of wear whatsoever. Looks nearly brand new to me. It’s not even dirty. Were this to be a backpack he used regularly for this gun, or for anything really, we would expect some signs of dirt or wear. I assume it likely the Patsy purchased this backpack recently, with the intent of concealing his rifle.
Also, as to your hair tuft, here’s a shot of Shaffer before he makes it atop the roof. Do you see what I see?

When the FBI showed picture evidence of crooks back pack and rifle. That was not the actual back pack or his rifle he had used. Looks like the FBI may have lost this evidence.

I do recall in one of Dave`s videos that he had witnessed something at the AGR building, and will talk about it until a later date. The only clue he would give, he witnessed the ARG owner/was in charge of the building do something. I have always been suspicious of AGR owner guy when he was so kean on clearing people away before the rally started. The last i heard about Dave he attended court, and not heard anything else since.

@vegaspatriot, thank you for making all the revisions and releasing yet another version of your outstanding recog tool!
I noticed the O’sche link has gone missing, here firstly is another one I found of O’sche (with a bonus Shane), both in uniform, and then the one used in the recog tools after, both with reference links:

How do you come to the conclusion of it not being the same backpack?
Back after posting too much in my first day. (I had to edit my last comment to reply to something after it)
Funnily enough, I was working on a big realtime video with multiple cams from 5-7 pm as well as an overall documentary about everything I’ve learned. I put both of them on hold and started the documentary I am working on now when it appeared to me all the house and senate investigations are placing all of the blame on the SS, and bending over backwards to completely excuses the locals, calling the ESU heroes and saying they couldn’t see the shooter on the roof. The HSGAC report only looks at SS faults. ESU are excused if mentioned at all. Initially it was just going to be a quick 20 minute video on the ‘snipers behind the shooter’ Nichol and Murcko but it kept evolving the more I found.
I think the SS is being scapegoated. While they bear ultimate responsibility, and made plenty of mistakes of their own, their biggest mistake in my opinion was relying too much on the locals and not checking they did what they were supposed to do.
Reading the lead agent, site agent and site counterpart interviews, they all agree (and risk committing a crime by lying) the locals were supposed to cover the AGR buildings. Lt PSP Officer in Charge (Herold?) said he spoke to the AGR owner and told SS the building would be locked, secured and posted. Butler Township were to having roving patrols in the outermost perimeter by AGR.
The ESU snipers were in the AGR building specifically because it offered a line of sight to the roof. Some early docs had them on the roof. They were one of the main tools to cover the building. Local claims about telling SS they couldn’t cover it are credibly disputed. The local snipers were specifically counter-snipers, looking out for snipers, and not looking into an already secured crowd and a stage they couldn’t even see from the end windows due to the red combine. Lenz seemingly decided for himself to have snipers looking in the wrong place (not that they could not have seen the shooter anyway). He basically said he was confused what he was supposed to do and didn’t have enough direction. Inside the building had the perfect view of the entire roof complex and they could have used every window it seems.
I wonder if Cheatle was rolled at least in part because she mentioned local responsibility for the building. Everything we’ve heard from the Butler and Beaver DA’s seems like complete bullshit and damage control. The reactions to Rowe showing the picture from the window were outrageous. I think he was neutered after that and has since changed his tune a little bit. I just checked out the latest report and they are very careful not to outright blame the locals when I think they really should.
Even communications. I think a couple of the SS people I just read the interviews of said every local agency was asked to be in that Security Room. The SS never planned for this separate local command trailer. Was that Lenz deciding for himself again not to put his people directly in the room with the SS? The SS expected them all to be in the same room, and their fault there was not to micromanage and check the locals actually came like they were asked instead of doing the separate trailer for some unknown reason. That trailer was also supposed to be some kind of line of sight mitigation, and break room.
This is just a rant and maybe isn’t super convincing. It didn’t mean to go so long, but it helps to write it down. It’s not a popular opinion and I don’t see it shared anywhere, and this is part of the reason I am focusing the documentary the way I am. But keep it in the back of your minds until I lay it all out over 2 hours. It think it will be very convincing when finished. There is a coverup of the ESU/PSP “failures”, and I keep finding more and more the more I look.
The HSGAC questions to SS agents were pretty leading and attempted to absolve the locals and blame the SS, and they weren’t happy when answers didn’t go the way they wanted. Their report doesn’t really include what they didn’t like, and has a deliberate framing of a preconceived conclusion.
One of “main findings” of the Task Force report basically says the ESU couldn’t really see the shooter out the windows.
Btw, can anyone confirm Lt. Herold is the Lt. PSP Officer in Charge in the SS transcripts? I still have to go over the Task Force hearing and report and a bunch of other things. I don’t trust Blasko, Lenz or Herold at all (or Mike Kelly). The SS people said almost under oath that Blasko is full of it, or at least that the PSP Lt. responded to concerns about manpower by saying the PSP or the ESU would take care of it.
Ah I still have to wait another 49 minutes to post…
Here we go

Ultimately, failure on the local/state LEO level still equals failure of the USSS during their own operation. Even in the case of a local/state orchestrated LIHOP/MIHOP situation, it falls under the responsibility of SS, as that is the chain of command. SS were in charge of planning/executing the mission, and the responsibility of whomever and however they relied on anyone else in that mission still falls on them. Also, it makes sense to me that they focus on shortcomings of the federal agency vs the local or state agencies as they themselves are a federal body tasked with investigating a federal agency.
Evidenced by? Why would you post snipers so close and awkwardly to specifically watch this roof? From this vantage point to the roof the shooter shot from, a standard rifle or even a pistol would probably be more applicable than a scoped rifle. And if it were their assigned task to survey the roof then it most likely would have been detailed in the action plan in some way.

I’m not sure if the probationary period is time based or vetted by moderation, but eventually this shouldn’t be an issue. It seems to me to be a form of bot deterrent or something along those lines.

It seems like standard procedure to delegate the outer perimeter to locals, and they are the ones that failed and didn’t protect the building with snipers and patrols.
Them being there because of line of sight to the roof comes up a few times in the SS interviews where it’s a crime for them to lie. There are multiple roofs that could be covered from the windows. Others were covering inside the secure perimeter.
