Judge Rules On Ryan Routh – Discovers Mexico Escape Plan


Ryan Routh, the man accused of a failed assassination attempt on President Donald Trump, was denied bail on Monday.

The judge ruled that he would stay locked up until trial.

Routh is facing up to 20 years behind bars for federal gun charges.

Additionally, it turns out Routh had six cell phones, according to the FBI.

That raised a few eyebrows.

He also searched how to travel down to Mexico.

Seems like he was planning his escape.

Right now, his only chance of escaping is a spoon to dig his way out and poster to hide the hole.

RedState reports:

Ryan Wesley Routh, the 58-year-old man suspected of attempting to assassinate former President and GOP nominee Donald Trump at Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida, on September 15, appeared in federal court Monday for his detention hearing. The detention hearing was held at 11:00 a.m. Monday morning before Magistrate Judge Ryon M. McCabe and lasted for just under three hours, at the conclusion of which McCabe ordered Routh to be detained.

As RedState reported, ahead of that hearing, the Department of Justice filed a detention memo supporting its request that Routh remain in pretrial detention, which included a copy of a portion of a handwritten letter Routh addressed to “The World,” in which he described his actions as “an assassination attempt on Donald Trump” and invited someone else to “finish the job,” promising payment of $150,000 for doing so.

The Nissan Xterra Routh was driving when he was taken into custody contained “two additional license plates.” Also, “the license plate on the Nissan Xterra was not registered” to that vehicle.

Six cell phones were discovered, one of which “contained a Google search of how to travel from Palm Beach County to Mexico.” They also found a passport, a dozen pairs of gloves, and a handwritten note that included dates for where Trump “had appeared or was expected to be present.”

Chillingly, they also noted that Routh’s cell phone had allegedly pinged towers near Mar-a-Lago and his golf club for a month ahead of his assassination attempt:

On multiple days and times from August 18, 2024, to September 15, 2024, ROUTH’s cell phone accessed cell towers located near Trump International and the former President’s residence at Mar-a-Lago.

The rare thing about this guy is that he’s alive.

Usually when these things go down, they’re usually wiped out so they can’t be questioned.

I’m believing he’s alive for a reason. To share all that he knows.

The Gateway Pundit adds:

Would-be Trump assassin Ryan Routh was denied bail on Monday during a court appearance.

Last Monday, Ryan Routh was charged with two federal gun crimes: Possession of a firearm by a convicted felon and possession (max penalty of 15 years in prison and $250,000 fine), and receipt of a firearm with an obliterated serial number (max penalty of 5 years in prison and a $250,000 fine).

Routh appeared in court on Monday and his sister, who is a licensed attorney in North Carolina, offered to house him if he was released on bail.

The judge denied their request and ordered Routh to be held pending trial.

According to prosecutors, the FBI found six cell phones in Routh’s Nissan Xterra. One phone had a Google search of how to travel from Palm Beach, Florida to Mexico.

Routh admitted in a letter that he tried to assassinate Trump, yet he has only been charged with two gun crimes.
