The State of Florida has officially filed charges against Ryan Routh, the man who attempted to assassinate President Donald Trump while he was golfing in Palm Beach in September 2024. 

Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier announced the charges Thursday morning and noted close cooperation between the Department of Justice, led by Attorney General Pam Bondi, and his office on the case. 

"After 206 days of stonewalling by the federal government that stemmed from days of the Biden administration, I am able to now announce that my office is charging Mr. Routh for the attempted first degree murder of President Trump as well as a charge for terrorism," Uthmeier said. "My office, as well as our law enforcement partners were met with major roadblocks in prosecuting this case during Biden's term. Biden and his attorney general sought to frustrate our efforts and block our investigation into the man who crossed into this state and attempted to commit political violence against a Florida resident. Thank God he was unsuccessful."

"We now have a federal government willing to work together to pursue justice," he continued. "We cannot allow justice to be delayed or denied." 

Earlier this week DOJ revealed in a court filing Routh attempted to obtain rocket propelled grenades and other weapons from a contact in Ukraine to use in his plans to murder Trump.
