Ryan Routh, who allegedly tried to assassinate President-elect Donald Trump in September, is facing an additional charge of attempted felony murder after nearly killing a six-year-old girl during his escape.
The man accused of trying to assassinate now President-elect Donald Trump on September 15 is facing an additional charge. Ryan Routh tried to escape from police by fleeing Trump’s West Palm Beach Golf course after allegedly trying to assassinate Trump, according to WPBF and nearly killed a six-year-old girl, according to CBS 12. The added charge against Routh is for attempted felony murder.
Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody said, “We felt compelled to seek justice on her behalf and her family that will never be the same as they cope with her injuries.”, we vowed to bring transparency and accountability to the investigation into the second assassination attempt of President Trump. Despite the federal government frustrating our efforts, which we continue to challenge in court, we found that Mr. Routh’s actions caused catastrophic injuries to a six-year-old girl. We continue to seek justice for President Trump, and we will fight just as hard to ensure Mr. Routh pays for the tragedy his criminal actions brought on a Florida family. Officials already levied federal charges against the suspect that included attempted assassination, assault, and firearms charges, the WPBF report noted.“As to why the would-be assassin was able to get that close to the former president despite a previous assassination attempt on him in June, the authorities said that the security perimeter could only be so wide due to him being a presidential candidate as opposed to a sitting president,” the outlet stated
