Ever since the ABC interview of the ESU team, I have had a problem with the story of “Greg” the sniper. Subsequent photos and other info I have seen only reinforced that. Definitely sounds like two different weapons/locations and the stories we hear from the media are either uncorroborated or lack any details. The silence of the FBI tells the tale.

Yes, this. When things are mostly together, with only a few lingering questions from a lack of perfect data, it’d be powerful if the PP team issued “The Martenson Report” summarizing all findings and remaining open questions. Video, book, both, whatever, just something to pull it all together, something to hand to a friend on the fence and say “here, read, and make up your own mind.”

In this diagram the actual trajectory path MUST go over the RED Combine.
Please can you draw this back to the Building Infrastruture and does anything line up with
your inside the roof theory which could be very accurate indeed.
If not, can you further extend as per email.

Some suspicious facts concerning the local LEO and ESU snipers that I below fit into a narrative, where one ESU sniper is the second shooter. Weird facts:
- Three ESU snipers were assigned to AGR, but one Beaver County sniper leaves at 4:27 pm 90+ minutes before Trump starts speaking (What’s the point of leaving before Trump getting exposed on stage?)
- Said BC sniper texts others that suspect (Crooks presumably) saw him leave building and was sitting just 50 yards away at a picnic table … “he knows you guys are up there”
- At 6:05-6:12, “coincidentally” just before Trump was shot, one of the two ESU snipers left in AGR, supposedly abandons his post and responsibility while Trump is speaking
- The motive alleged by ESU for the crucial abandonment was ESU supposedly wanted to look for Crooks on the grounds … even though he could have radioed local LEOs to do so (there were 12+ local LEOs in that area just after the shooting, plus three undercover from the west side of AGR)
- Besides, why unnecessarily abandon his responsibility only late at 6:05-6:12 pm, and not way before … ESU took pic of Crooks at 5:14 pm and then texted at 5:38 to snipers about suspect … if it was so urgent to personally look for suspect, why not have done so 50 minutes earlier, before Trump got on stage?
- The other remaining ESU sniper also alleges a need to leave, to allow colleague back in AGR building.
- Shots 4-8 were taken ~15 feet closer to Trump than were shots 1-3, if they used rounds with same speed, based on differential delay .22 versus .213 seconds
- MSM immediately plants story of local cop climbing/being boosted to roof of AGR and falling down … name of cops never released, no witness of any of this (Greg Smith of BBC interview is adamant about this)
- Right after shooting, in D. Stewart film, a massive group of LEOs was on eastern side of AGR 6, very tensely pointing guns and rifles at roof (not knowing if there was another shooter alive), yet the three undercover guys plus Greg Nicol in camo pants + Nike shirt were nearby, relaxed*, chatting, guns put back
So here is a narrative that explains the above oddities.
The early ESU sniper is asked or scheduled to leave early, because he is not part of the plot.
Of the two remaining ESU snipers, one was a second shooter, and the real reason he left the western window post was not to look for Crooks, but to move to a pre-planned position that would better line up with the Crooks-Trump line, so his shot at Trump could be camouflaged by Crooks. The other remaining sniper may have helped to keep witnesses away or get him into position. Again, one of the two ESU snipers shot at Trump.
Positioned where? Two possibilities, again using fact shots 4-8 were 15 ft closer than shots 4-8 (see my computation in a recent post):
If Crooks took shots 1-3, then 4-8 being 15 feet closer would have been taken from 1st floor just above or through top of the third 1st floor window from East to West. (Even if window closed, it needed just a 1.5 inch hole for the barrel tip and then be covered with a plastic film. This is similar to how DC sniper Lee Malvo managed to gun down 10 people over three weeks in DC and remain hidden from a massive manhunt … shooting from inside a car’s trunk with a little hole in it.)
If instead Crooks took shots 4-8 (less muffled as in audio evidence), because these shots were 15 feet closer, one or both of the ESU snipers would have positioned on the AGR 6 parapet on east side, covered from both SS sniper teams by trees. Shots 1-3 from there would have been about 15 feet farther to Trump, and indeed sounded more muffled from west side of AGR 6 (as in audio).
The MSM story of two “cops” together with one trying to get on the roof was a cover story for one of the two ESU snipers actually getting on the roof (Greg Nicol?) or parapet - in case any witnesses saw the climb, they’d have a cover story about trying to save Trump from Crooks. (DARVO - Deny, Attack, and Reverse Victim and Offender). The part about “cop falling” off the roof after Crooks pointed at him is a misdirection - the ESU sniper would have taken shots 1-3 calmly from up there and jumped down once done (rather than fell down) to leave patsy Crooks to take all the blame. Crooks would have been instructed to fire after ESU sniper.
The fact the ESU who left early texted “he knows you guys are up there” and that suspect (Crooks presumably) at 4:38 pm was at picnic table and then again at 6:05 (see page 12) suggests Crooks had been calmly waiting for his moment to get on the closest AGR roof not seen by either SS sniper team (team 1 was facing south away from AGR until 6:10, and team 2 was blocked from Crooks by trees).
Crooks would not have been worried about the ESU snipers in AGR, if he thought they were part of his team of patriots meant to kill Trump and save democracy. Those ESU’s were local and could have groomed Crooks or met him before, then visited SS DC headquarters to coordinate the plot with SS. (Heritage Foundation’s Oversight Project shows Gallery in DC was two blocks from SS.)
The fact Greg Nicol and plain clothes were relaxed and with guns pointed down while colleagues 20 feet away super tense and pointing guns at roof tells us Greg Nicol knew there was no further danger. Why? Greg Nicol knew he (or the other ESU sniper) was the second shooter and did not fear themselves. That’s why Greg Nicol was relaxed, 7:35-8:20 in Stewart’s video.

I too suspect these are reflections of sun. However, what still is unexplained about that window is the changing position of a red curtain.

I have 2 questions, forgive me if they are dumb:
- Could Crooks have been used as a diversion?
- Why did they not keep shooting directly at Trump? Why shoot randomly into the crowd?
Your 15 feet difference in location matches my calculations. Here is some additional info I have been playing with.
One of the initial videos showed time deltas for the difference between supersonic crack at Trump’s microphone and the arrival of the muzzle blast. The first 3 had time deltas of .220 seconds, and the second 5 shots had time deltas of .213 seconds. (Hopefully that is still true, or you can ignore the rest of this). I used a ballistic calculator to generate a velocity profile every 10 yards for a few different ammo types. Ballistic calculators assume a barrel length of 20 or 22 inches, so I adjusted the velocity profiles to account for a 16 inch barrel similar to Crooks weapon (150 to 200 ft/sec slower muzzle velocity). I averaged the velocity over each 10 yard interval to get a travel time vs. range and compared that to the speed of sound time at the same range (I calculated the speed of sound at 1153.7 ft/sec based on the weather that day).
For each type of ammo I looked at, assuming the same gun and same ammo, the range for the second 5 shots were always 15 feet closer than the range for the first 3 shots. This means that for a single shooter, they would have had to shoot 3 shots, then MOVE CLOSER 15 feet and fire the next 5 shots. The other possibility for a single shooter is that they switched to a much heaver bullet (69 to 77 grain) and stayed in the same spot. That seems unlikely, but is theoretically possible.
If there were 2 shooters, then the plan would likely be to make it look like there was a single shooter (i.e. Crooks), so both using AR-15’s but they could have used different ammo and/or different barrel lengths. It is most likely that Crooks is the second shooter in this scenario so the following scenarios are based on that assumption.
-
If they used the same ammo, then the first shooter would be 15 feet further away than the second shooter and the ammo would have to be 62-69 grain ammo in order for the ranges to work out. (first shooter in second floor window or at the far end of the roof per recent speculation?)
-
If the first shooter was in front of Crooks (first floor window?), that would require the first shooter was using something like NATO M193 55 grain ammo, and Crooks was shooting a much heavier round (77 grain) with a muzzle velocity on the order of 2600 ft/sec.
It would be nice to know what type of ammo Crooks had for his weapon. I don’t see any scenario where the first shooter could have been 100 or 200 feet behind Crooks as some have speculated unless they were shooting a different type of weapon with a much lower velocity, which opens up a whole different can of worms.

Trump was down and behind a bullet resistant banner. The long stars and stripes banner in front of the stage podium is bullet resistant.

It would be a stretch to use a 223 round over 1500 feet, and I’d think that a second shooter would want a 223 to match Crooks’s AR-15 rounds, lest suspicion about a second sniper arise … unless everyone local, state, and federal LEOs who might have found different rounds were all in on the plot.

Here is another thought on those light flashes.

This made me go back and look at my screenshot from Aus Truth on here. His post made my question everything even more. Different guns could explain it? What if a Crooked sniper used a Crook-ed different similar gun with shorter barrel then planted that gun on the roof? When studying my screenshots, I have noticed elaborate shadowing of white and black distinct actual lines. I will try to post my screenshots I have taken from pics here and other sites. No idea what is real and I am not anyone with up-to-date tech. Maybe there are higher resolution images to confirm this is nothing?

Zoomed pic. Look at the weird orange blurbs(hands). Camo pants leg seems like he would have a broken leg.

Look at the black “shadow” under Crook’s arm. The black officer’s hands are cut off? Or with black gloves on? Below hands is a black smudged blur of…what?

In the 9/11 commission’s report, “they” did ignore 9/11’s WTC building 7 collapsing at free-fall speed - its collapse was not even acknowledged! This even though it had not been hit by an airplane, and even though Lucky Larry Silverstein alleged on TV that the fire dept. on 9/11 decided it was better to “pull it” on that very same day.
If “they” can ignore that, surely they can ignore audio evidence! The prompt removal of the Trump stage and bleachers reminds me of the prompt removal of all the nicely and regularly cut steel columns of WTC towers 1&2 in the wreckage (consistent with regularly spaced explosive demolition charges) days after for smelting in China. Destroying evidence, clearly.

He might not have been part of the plot, and therefore scheduled to leave early to eliminate a witness to the plot insiders, who may have included the two remaining ESU snipers. I suspect one of those ESU’s fired shots 1-3, the other was a lookout and/or helped getting positioned.

First, Where is that long blood trail? Second, it appears he is lying on his back because the boots look like they are pointing up not down.

That line on his shorts, which appears black to me, seems to align with the shot to his right leg. Is that what you’re getting at?
