Hello everyone and welcome to police off the cuff, real crime stories. I'm your host.

Retired NYPD Sergeant Bill Cannon, 27-year veteran of the NYPD, beautiful Sunday here in New York, July 21st.

Just gorgeous weather and just a beautiful day.

Anyway, you know, tomorrow Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheathel will testify before Congress.

I think we've all been wondering when is this going to occur.

I don't think there's anyone that can look at this attempted assassination

on former President Donald Trump and the three additional people shot,

that anyone could look at this and say it was a beautiful shining moment for the Secret Service.

It's an ugly, ugly stain on that proud organization's record over the years.

And so many, so many, so many mistakes were made that it's so hard to really describe

how a professional organization like this could have heard so badly in so many aspects of this this

horrible assassination attempt now tomorrow when this miss Cheadle testifies

let's hope that it'll besides, putting responsibility where it belongs on the director

of the Secret Service, let's hope it just doesn't become about attacking her.

Let's hope that we get some facts out there, that we haven't heard yet from our government. And, you know, we're getting a lot of outstanding coverage from the media.

But how do we know what is true and what is false and what is hearsay?

We don't know. So we as citizens, I think, deserve to get this from the horse's mouth and really hear what happened.

Why were, why did this happen?

And do we have confidence going forward, A, in Director Chedel and B, in the Secret Service period and the ability of the FBI to do a

thorough thorough investigation of this and a transparent investigation of in regards to this case.

Because there are many people that are out there spooing forth. Conspiracy theories wondering what was the shooter here, a lone wolf?

Was Thomas Crooks, a lone wolf, or did he help?
