View on XThis comes after two assassination attempts on Trump’s life in as many months. The first came at his July 13 Butler, Pennsylvania rally, where gunman Thomas Matthew Crooks shot Trump in the ear, injured two spectators, and killed father and firefighter Corey Comperatore. Crooks was killed at the scene by counter-snipers.
The second assassination attempt came on September 15, where suspect Ryan Routh allegedly laid in wait for 12 hours at Trump’s West Palm Beach golf course. Secret Service agents fired on the suspect, who fled. Routh was later arrested on I-95.
Routh was initially charged with possessing a firearm as a felon and possession of a firearm with an obliterated serial number. On Tuesday, federal prosecutors added the charge of attempted assassination of a presidential candidate. Overseeing Routh’s case will be Judge Aileen Cannon, who presided over the Biden-Harris DOJ's prosecution of Trump in the classified documents case.
