Prosecutors seek more time in attempted Trump assassination case after hurricanes | National
SUMMARY: Federal prosecutors in Florida sought a brief delay in court deadlines for the case against 58-year-old Routh, accused of stalking and attempting to kill former President Donald Trump. Due to office closures from recent hurricanes, they requested a two-day extension for the initial discovery deadline. Routh, who has pleaded not guilty, was charged with several felonies including attempted assassination. Evidence includes a sniper nest near Trump’s golf course containing a rifle linked to Routh. Authorities found a handwritten note in Routh’s vehicle offering money to anyone who would complete the assassination, which his attorney dismissed as a publicity stunt.
