Widow of Corey Comperatore, the Firefighter Killed at Trump’s Butler Rally, Claims Shooting Was an “Inside Job” (VIDEO)

Helen Comperatore, the wife of slain firefighter and Trump supporter Corey Comperatore sat down with NewsNation recently and gave her thoughts on the Trump Butler Rally shooting.

Former fire chief Corey Comperatore was shot and killed on July 14, 2024 while attending Trump’s Rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.

Since the shooting, numerous questions have been raised about the Secret Service’s security failures at the rally.

Among the most talked about is why agents did not secure the rooftop from which 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks was able to open fire on President Trump and several rally attendees.

Helen Comperatore, in a sit-down interview, claimed the security lapses were due to the shooting being an “inside job.”

Helen stated, “I don’t believe there was another shooter there, but I believe he (Crooks) was working with somebody. I believe it was an inside job inside the government.”

Per NewsNation:

Helen Comperatore, Corey’s widow, said she believes the Secret Service got “everything” wrong.

“They had no communication with the outside. None,” Comperatore told NewsNation. “If they would’ve, they would’ve known there was a shooter, that there was someone suspicious. Why wouldn’t have you reacted from one (call)?”

“If they had held him (Trump) back from that stage and not let him go, I wouldn’t be sitting here with you today,” Comperatore continued.

She added she believes Crooks was working with someone at the time and that there was a plan for a mass shooting and assassination attempt of Trump, but that they were not the second shooter.

“He didn’t just get up that day and go do it,” Comperatore said. She added she believes it was someone inside the government who helped Crooks, but did not elaborate on the things that led her to believe this.
