As protection professionals, we know that the best-laid security plans can quickly unravel. Therefore, the events of July 13 that led to the Trump attempted assassination are a reminder that even with all the kit, equipment and resources, we can still get horribly exposed. In this edition of On the Circuit, we meticulously dissect the security failures that led to shots being fired at the Republican campaign rally, examining the incident from multiple angles. We explore the chronology of events, analyse the breakdown in communication between agencies, and scrutinise the protocols that were—or should have been—in place. It's important to state that our aim is not to point fingers but to learn, adapt, and improve. By understanding what went wrong, we can collectively strengthen our strategies and enhance our readiness for future assignments. Share your thoughts on this one in the comments below 👇
