Alleged Trump shooter wrote of "assassination attempt," prosecutors say

Ryan Wesley Routh, 58, is accused of attempting to assassinate Donald Trump at a golf course in Florida. A note found by police, allegedly written by Routh, states "This was an assassination attempt on Donald Trump but I failed you". Routh is also charged with two gun crimes, including allegedly pointing a rifle through a tree line. A detention memo filed ahead of a hearing on Monday includes new allegations against Routh, who is expected to argue that he should remain locked up while the case is pending. Routh is scheduled to appear at a federal court on Monday, where he will likely face a hearing. The note found by police appears to be a pre-written letter, with Routh stating "I tried my best and gave it all the gumption I could muster".
