FBI Files Reveal Thomas Crooks' Mental Decline and Isolation Before 2024 Attack
Newly released federal documents detail the deteriorating mental state and isolated behavior of Thomas Crooks, the 20-year-old who attempted to assassinate President Donald Trump in 2024. While FBI Director Kash Patel testified that Crooks acted alone, former agents argue the files show 'red flags' of a manic episode. The release has intensified political disputes, with President Trump alleging a 'Democratic plot' despite a lack of evidence for a broader conspiracy.
