Ryan Wesley Routh faces new charge of attempted assassination of Trump after initial gun rap; son arrested for possessing child pr0n
[NYPOST] Ryan Wesley Routh was charged Tuesday with the attempted liquidation of Donald Trump
...The tack in the backside of the Democratic Party...
after the alleged gunman staked out the former president's Florida golf course earlier this month.

Routh, 58, was indicted on the new federal charge of attempted liquidation of a major presidential candidate after he was previously slapped with weapons charges, the US Attorney's Office said Tuesday.

The high-profile case was assigned to Trump-appointed US District Judge Aileen Cannon, CNN
...formerly the Cable News Network, now who know what it might stand for...
reported.

Cannon tossed a separate federal criminal case against Trump in July that was brought by special prosecutor Jack Smith over allegations the ex-commander in chief illegally kept classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago mansion.

The latest charge was brought against Routh one day after prosecutors released a letter penned by the accused would-be assassin in which he allegedly admitted he was going to try to kill Trump.
I read somewhere — no link, sorry — that Mr. Routh’s cell phone showed that he’d actually been waiting for President Trump to appear at the golf course for something like a week. So it wasn’t that he happened to get lucky on that day, but that he knew the president frequently golfed at the course across from Mar-a-Lago whenever he had the chance, and kept going back until he showed up.

#2 This is an interesting plot twist. Weirdness running in the family, or something more sinister?

Planting evidence on someone's computer is not unpossible and can be as easy as sending an email with an attachment. In this case, the Feebs allegedly found an SD card with the forbidden content.

A suspicious person might wonder if this was a play to get some influence over Dad and keep him from spilling the beans.

#3 I wouldn't discount it.

My p()ker table feel is that it is a family thing like Hunter Biden or Sean Penn.

They could be getting better at it, but those are some real dilated eyes for someone with such bright light reflecting off his eyeballs.

Of course I'm olde school photography and professionally unfamiliar with current day ultra-def and filters.
