Accused Trump assassin’s request to push trial date not an ‘unreasonable delay’: judge

Raw Story  

The trial for the man accused of plotting to assassinate President-elect Donald Trump at his golf course in West Palm Beach, Florida earlier this year has been pushed back until September 2025, according to media reports. Ryan Wesley Routh, 58, was set to go to trial Feb. 10, 2025, but U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon said in an order this week that moving the Hawaiian resident’s trial to begin Sept. 8 instead didn’t amount to an ‘unreasonable delay,’” according to an Associated Press report. Routh’s attorneys had urged Cannon, who tossed out the classified documents criminal case against Trump this summer, for a December trial date to review evidence and decide whether to pursue an insanity defense, the report said. Prosecutors say a U.S. Secret Service agent fired one gunshot toward Routh after spotting him holding a rifle on Sept. 15 near the Trump International Golf Course.
