Thomas Matthew Crooks Failed Rifle Club Practice, Evidently Not Well-Practiced
Thomas Matthew Crooks clearly put in serious practice at a gun range before trying to kill Donald Trump — because now we know just how bad of a shot he was in high school, and why he didn’t make his rifle team.
TMZ has spoken to sources who are directly familiar with Crooks’ attempt to get on that team at Bethel Park High School, and we’re told he had a disastrous effort on the shooting range … sometime between 2018 and 2019 which resulted in him not making the squad.

Our sources — who knew Crooks personally — tell us he wasn’t just a bad shot … he was a total mess with a firearm, which was proven when he accidentally shot into a completely different lane from his own.
