A federal law enforcement source confirmed that agents are pursuing a victim impact statement from the former President—a typical step in such cases, as reported by Fox News.
On July 13, Crooks ascended a building overlooking Trump's rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.

He managed to evade law enforcement on the ground, pointed his firearm at a police officer on the rooftop, and then proceeded to open fire.
The attack claimed the life of 50-year-old Corey Comperatore and left David Dutch, 57, and James Copenhaver, 74, severely injured.
Trump recounted being shot in the right ear, and images from the scene depicted him with blood on the right side of his head.

He highlighted that Crooks had shown interest in historical presidential assassinations and had queried Google about the distance between Oswald and Kennedy on the same day he registered for the rally.
Emphasizing the significance of the investigation, an FBI spokesperson reiterated that the shooting constituted an attempted assassination on Trump and led to his injury, along with the death of a father and injuries to other victims.
Additionally, the FBI's Shooting Reconstruction Team continues to examine evidence from the scene, including bullet fragments, as the investigation progresses.

“FBI Looking To Interview Donald Trump About The Assassination Attempt”
FBI Looking to Finish the Job their young LibTard Radical failed to do !
FJB and Every Freaking Democrat in the country !
GOD BLESS POTUS DONALD J. TRUMP !
Trump to be indicted for unexpectedly turning his head.
Well perhaps they can get the DOJ to OK use of deadly force to go interview Trump. These little Jack Booted Nazi’s could all suit up, lock & load and storm Mar a Lago to haul him back to the office in cuffs. Perhaps they could finish the job of assassinating him by claiming he resisted.
Why not? The DOJ, FBI, CIA, NSA, ATF, IRS, the Liberal Courts, every department and agency and even the Military are all run by communists and America hating scum now. This cabal could kill anyone they want and the House led GOP would simply hop up and down and complain but do nothing because they are “toothless” with all there agencies in the bag for the crooks and criminals of Washington.
I would tell the FBI to pack sand. Look what they did to General Flynn with their “simple, friendly” interview.
