Topic: Criminal Complaints

Doug Hagman analyzes a private criminal complaint filed by Hadassah Feinberg against Governor Josh Shapiro and State Police Head Christopher Paris. While the complaint alleges conspiracy and RICO violations related to the Butler shooting, Hagman notes it lacks the necessary specificity and evidentiary attachments required by Pennsylvania law. The Butler County District Attorney previously declined the complaint, citing ongoing investigations by other government agencies.

Multiple sworn criminal complaints have been filed in Pennsylvania alleging that the governor was involved in a "stand down" order during the attempted assassination of Donald Trump. Investigations into the Secret Service and FBI suggest that a deputy director may have ordered security to stand down while a shooter was positioned 150 yards away. Ballistic analysis mentioned in the complaints suggests the presence of at least two shooters from different trajectories, including the water tower area.
