A Retired FBI Agent Voiced Concerns About the Location Charlie Kirk Was Shot From
Donald Trump awarded Charlie Kirk the Presidential Medal of Freedom after he died.
Retired FBI supervising agent James Gagliano spoke out about the location the shooting took place from, explaining, “If you come off that roof — and I’ve seen the drone footage of this — there’s an open-air parking lot behind that building.”
“So, this is a big concern because this person, within three to five minutes of that shot going off, that person could have been in a vehicle on his way out and miles and miles away,” he added.
Gagliano also detailed how close the airport is to where the shooting took place, implying the suspect may have already fled Utah.
In the wake of Kirk dying, Trump awarded him with the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
