US Attorney General Todd Blanche said on the 15th that the US Federal Bureau of Investigation recently discovered more information about Thomas Matthew Crooks, the shooter who assassinated current President Trump in 2024, involving his personal background and experience. Blanche released the news at the White House press conference on the same day, but no details were disclosed. Using a person who has read the relevant documents as a source, the newly discovered information includes that Crooks fraudulently used the name of the late Republican Senator and former presidential candidate Bob Dole to receive packages; he also purchased parts and tools from the e-commerce platform Amazon to modify the performance of the rifle. Documents show that after Crooks was shot dead by US Secret Service personnel during the assassination, an anonymous person funded his cremation.
