NEWLY released photos of Thomas Matthew Crooks, the 20-year-old who attempted to assassinate former President Donald Trump, have sparked further intrigue and speculation surrounding the failed attempt on the former president’s life.
The images, captured just moments before Crooks opened fire at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania on July 13, revealed unsettling details about his final actions.

In one of the photos, Crooks is seen perched on a wall in a grassy area, using his cell phone.
Crooks appears to be very relaxed despite the fact he was about to commit a terribly violent act that killed one person in the crowd and injured two others.
The new photos now raise questions about whether Crooks might have been communicating with somebody, what he was looking at, and what was going through his mind at the time.
Despite an extensive investigation that resulted in Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle resigning, authorities have yet to determine Crooks’ motive or confirm whether he was truly acting alone.
Authorities also searched Crooks’ phone, turning up nothing.
However, they confirmed his final internet searches before his death were reportedly for pornography, according to The Daily Beast.
This has left many to wonder if the photos of Crooks’ final moments on his phone caught him searching for porn.
