FBI Director Christopher Wray told lawmakers on Wednesday that a laptop tied to the Trump rally gunman included a Google search of “How far away was Oswald from Kennedy?”
Wray’s testimony before the U.S. House Judiciary Committee represents his most detailed comments to date about the July 13 shooting in Butler, Pa., which has thrust the FBI into a political maelstrom, with the bureau probing the most serious attempt to assassinate a president or presidential candidate since then-U.S. president Ronald Reagan was shot in 1981.
The hearing had been scheduled well before the July 13 shooting as part of the committee’s routine oversight of the FBI and the U.S. Justice Department, and though lawmakers may touch on a broad array of topics, questions about the shooting are expected to dominate the session. Though the FBI has avoided the same level of scrutiny over the shooting directed at the U.S. Secret Service over security failures that preceded the shooting, culminating Tuesday in the resignation of Director Kimberly Cheatle, Wray is likely to be questioned by lawmakers skeptical of the bureau’s assessment that Crooks left behind no obvious ideological motive that could explain his actions.
