FBI Reveals Key Search Tied to Trump Rally Gunman

FBI Director Christopher Wray informed lawmakers that a laptop tied to the Trump rally gunman contained a Google search asking about the distance between Lee Harvey Oswald and President Kennedy. The search was conducted by Thomas Matthew Crooks a week before the Trump rally shooting in Butler, Pennsylvania.

During a hearing before the House Judiciary Committee on Wednesday, FBI Director Christopher Wray revealed that a laptop belonging to the gunman involved in the Trump rally incident contained a Google search related to the Kennedy assassination.

The laptop search, carried out by Thomas Matthew Crooks on July 6, queried 'How far away was Oswald from Kennedy?'—a reference to Lee Harvey Oswald who assassinated President John F. Kennedy in 1963.

This revelation came a week prior to the shooting incident involving Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania.
