Trump assassination attempt suspect Ryan Routh smirks in new Florida mugshot as more life details emerge


Ryan Wesley Routh, the suspect in former President Donald Trump’s second foiled assassination attempt, was photographed smirking in the booking photo released by the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office.

Routh, 58, was also listed as married and an atheist in the religion category of his arrest records, obtained by Fox News Digital. 

His wife was listed as his emergency contact. 

Another section of the arrest records notes that Routh was not under the influence of drugs or alcohol during the incident.

Routh was arrested Sunday after authorities spotted a gun poking out of the shrubbery on the golf course where Trump was playing that afternoon. Routh allegedly camped outside the golf course with food and a rifle for nearly 12 hours, records revealed.

Routh did not fire any shots, never had Trump in his line of sight and sped away after the agent who spotted him fired in his direction, officials said. 

Police were able to quickly obtain descriptions of both the suspect and his vehicle with the help of an eyewitness, authorities said, and he was arrested in a neighboring county.

Routh has been charged federally with possessing a gun with a scratched-out number and with possessing a gun illegally as a felon, though more serious charges are likely pending. 

He is due back in court later this month, and charges could include aggravated assault for allegedly pointing the rifle at a Secret Service agent and making threats against a former president, State Attorney Dave Aronberg previously told Fox News Digital.
