BREAKING: Judge Aileen Cannon Will Oversee Ryan Routh Trump Assassination Case!


Would-be Trump assassin Ryan Routh has just been officially charged with attempted murder.

And guess who’s been set to preside over the case?

None other than Judge Aileen Cannon — the very same who dismissed Jack Smith’s baseless classified docs case against President Trump.

She’s got a good head on her shoulders and doesn’t play around.

This is a huge development and means we might actually see JUSTICE prevail and get to the bottom of what’s really going on here…

Check out the breaking news:

Ryan Routh has been indicted on five counts:

The Washington Examiner reported:

Ryan Routh has been charged with the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump.

Judge Aileen Cannon, who oversaw and then threw out the classified documents case, was randomly assigned to Routh’s case, according to CNN. Previously, Routh was only being charged with two gun felonies. A judge ruled on Monday that Routh, 58, will stay in prison as he awaits his trial.

Routh was accused of staking out at the sixth hole of Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida, for 12 hours, allegedly waiting for Trump to get in range so he could assassinate him. Secret Service agents located and fired upon him before he could get a shot off himself.cannon

Politico added:

The federal judge who presided over — and threw out — the criminal classified documents case the Justice Department brought against Donald Trump is now set to oversee the case into the latest apparent assassination attempt against the former president.

U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon — a Trump appointee — was randomly assigned the attempted assassination case Tuesday after a grand jury in Miami returned a five-count indictment against Ryan Routh in connection with the Sept. 15 incident at the Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Fla.

The indictment charges Routh with attempted assassination of a presidential candidate, possessing a firearm in furtherance of a violent crime and assault on a federal officer, as well as two charges he already faced: being a felon in possession of a firearm and possessing a firearm with an obliterated serial number.

According to prosecutors and police, a Secret Service agent opened fire on Routh after spotting a rifle barrel poking through a fence surrounding the golf course as Trump was about a hole away. Routh, who authorities say did not fire, was arrested by sheriff’s deputies in an adjoining county a short time later.

The lead charge the Justice Department filed against Routh Tuesday was brought under a federal statute that makes it a crime to attempt to kill a major-party presidential candidate. The charges carry a maximum sentence of life in prison if he’s convicted.
