Jury found him guilty of all charges.
FORT PIERCE, Fla. — The jury weighing the fate of the man accused of attempting to gun down Donald Trump on a Florida golf course last year has reached a verdict.
Jury deliberations got underway Tuesday after Ryan Wesley Routh capped his two-week trial, during which he served as his own attorney, by delivering a brief and disjointed closing argument during which he tried to argue that there was no crime because he never fired a shot at Trump.
But just 12 minutes in his monologue, U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon interrupted Routh and scolded him for ignoring her order to "stay within the bounds of the case" after he started complaining that he wasn't allowed to put more witnesses on the stand.

“Ryan Routh convicted of trying to assassinate President Trump, faces life in prison”
A shame it is not the death penalty.
Now the appeals can begin with “ineffective assistance of counsel.”
So stupid a scenario that the several TV court shows that have had it shouldn’t have been allowed in real life.

I agree.
Time to get this off the front pages.
Served as his own attorney?
Man this guy is dumb.
If being an idiot was a crime, this guy would qualify for the Death Penalty................
A network last night spent the entire segment interviewing the guilty’s daughter. Much like they did with Robinson, it was poor girl, Poor daughter, loves her father 🥴
What is hi handicap for sentencing?
Did he just try to stab himself? Wilkow just said this.
Ryan Routh tried to kill himself by stabbing a pen in his neck when the verdict was read.
NO ONE WANTED GO TAKE THIS OPEN AND SHUT CASE!
Have they released him on bail yet?
when is sentencing and what is he facing?
He’ll probably get probation.
US Marshals prevented Routh from self-inflicted serious injury.
Easiest case in the world seriously would have taken any jury 2 seconds to convict him
cashless bail!
