Me purely guessing based off of yardage said. He would maybe have a decent pov to the area Trump’s stage was located.



The back of the Mazda building also can match 488yds ish, likely a much better view

There's a report saying this is how far the sniper was.

That's wrong. It was feet.

He's creating a distance line and figuring what the likely spot would be of the police sniper.

It was 130 yards, or 400 ft….edit, that was the prep, not sniper

There is a report the sniper that killed the assassin was 488 yards away?

Probably but I've also seen it reported as yds. I forget where. I have no idea though what actually happened.

The green dot on the top right is in the right spot. The bottom left is way off, trump was in front the 3 buildings on the right just below the upper right green dot.

He is referring to Erik Prince:

quote:

The law enforcement sniper (unclear if USSS) in newsreels was clearly overwhelmed as his face came off his rifle instead of doing his job to kill the shooter. Clearly they were watching the shooter but apparently have a no "first shot" policy. The only positive action was an apparent 488yd shot by one USSS sniper which despatched the assasin but after the assassin launched at least 5 rounds, wounding DJT and killing and severely others in the crowd.



There's a thread on it.

I’m not talking about the assassin attempt shot.

I think everyone has assumed the video of the 2 police snipers shot him. It was other snipers maybe that were farther.

Ima go out on a limb and say this guy is incorrect about a 488 yd shot. He doesn’t have any connection to the situation and is the only person saying this.

It also doesn’t really make sense

It’s mind boggling they would have snipers over 300 yards away covering the event yet failed to post one on a rooftop less than 150 yards away?

Erik Prince stated the same. That the shooter was killed by a SS sniper 488 yards away. The two sharpshooters on the roof were snipers from the local police force.
