Topic: Suspicious Person

1 chapters across the catalog

Ronald Roe provides a timeline of the Butler event, noting that local law enforcement had identified a "suspicious person" with a rangefinder nearly an hour before the shooting. He admits that the Secret Service counter-sniper teams were unaware the individual had a firearm until shots were fired. Jones argues that this timeline proves a deliberate lack of "command and control," as the Secret Service ignored multiple warnings from local police.
