Crockett’s Former Security Guard Killed in Dallas Police Standoff

A man killed in a Dallas police standoff had worked on Jasmine Crockett’s security team. Crockett said her office followed House hiring protocols. Left-leaning outlets report Crockett’s account and the guard’s connection to her team, with little focus on criticism of her response. Center outlets pair police accounts with her response and questions about how the guard passed vetting.
