00:00Now, there's a whole lot of work underway and still a lot of work to do, and our understanding
00:05of what happened and why will continue to evolve, but we're going to leave no stone
00:11unturned.
00:13The shooter may be deceased, but the FBI's investigation is very much ongoing.
00:19A lot of the usual repositories of information have not yielded anything notable in terms
00:28of motive or like ideology.
00:32Having said that, it does appear fairly clear that he was interested in public figures kind
00:38of more broadly, and, and I think this is important, that starting somewhere around
00:47July 6th or so, he became very focused on former President Trump on this rally.
00:56Analysis of a laptop that the investigation ties to the shooter reveals that on July 6th,
01:04he did a Google search for, quote, how far away was Oswald from Kennedy?
01:16And so that's a search that obviously is significant in terms of his state of mind.
01:23That is the same day that it appears that he registered for the Butler rally.
01:31We are in an elevated threat environment, and we have been for some time, and that comes
01:35from a variety of quarters.
01:38It is a, it is quite frankly a dangerous time to be a prominent public official.
01:42The weapon had a collapsible stock, which could explain why it might have been less
01:50easy for people to observe, you know, because one of the things that we're finding is people
01:54have observed him, the first people to observe him with the weapon were when he was already
01:59on the roof.
02:00And we haven't yet found anybody with firsthand observation of him with the weapon walking
02:06around beforehand.
02:07So that doesn't mean he wasn't, obviously, but, but the collapsible stock is, is potentially
02:13a very significant feature that might be relevant to that.
02:16We've been able to, by exploiting the drone, determine, you know, its use and flight paths.
02:23There were no pictures or videos on the drone of, of the day of the rally, for example,
02:30but we have been able to, to reverse engineer the flight path of the drone from the day
02:36of the rally.
02:37And that's how we know that for about 11 minutes from, I think it's around 3.50 PM to 4 PM,
02:43somewhere in that range, he was flying the drone and we have the flight path.
02:48It's about 200 yards away from where former president Trump would ultimately be speaking.
