Assassination attempt: FBI to conduct victim interview on Trump


 

The Federal Bureau of Investigation, FBI, has agreed to carry out a “victim interview” on former President Donald Trump, the Republican presidential candidate.

FBI explained that the victim interview will be conducted on Trump over the failed assassination attempt on his life about one month ago in Butler, Pennsylvania.

Kevin Rojek, FBI special agent, said the interview with Trump will be “a standard victim interview like we would do for any other victim of crime under any other circumstances”.

Thomas Mathew Crooks had attempted to assassinate Trump during his presidential campaign in Butler, but missed and was subsequently killed.

In a statement on Monday, Rojek said: “We want to get his perspective on what he observed.

“We have learned the subject was highly intelligent, attended college and maintained steady employment.

“His primary social circle appears to be limited to his immediate family as we believe he had few friends and acquaintances.”

The FBI officials said Crooks’s parents have said they had no advance knowledge of their son’s plot. “We do find that to be credible at this stage,” Rojek said
