Bethel Park High School officials have contradicted reports that Trump shooter Thomas Matthew Crooks was bullied, threatening, and a member of the school’s rifle team.
In updated statements posted Saturday, officials said they have “no record” of Crooks ever trying out or being dismissed from the rifle team due to character or performance concerns, as previously reported.

    Every report I’ve seen said he failed to make the tea so I don’t know where the fake fact came from that he was on it, but this is the first time I have read he wasn’t picked on.

      To be fair, I don’t think we can rely on a school self-reporting bullying.

      The claim they’re making is that he was not kicked out of club for his behavior.

      I’ve always seen it claimed he wasn’t allowed in at all for strange comments and poor aim.

      Interesting that they’re saying something no one was claiming happened didn’t happen.
