A Florida jury on Tuesday found Ryan Routh guilty of attempting to assassinate Donald Trump a year ago on a golf course.

The attempt to assassinate the then Republican presidential nominee came just weeks before the November 2024 election, and two months after a separate assassination attempt in Pennsylvania, when Trump was grazed in the ear by a bullet.

Routh, 59, was convicted of attempted assassination of a major presidential candidate, assaulting a federal officer, as well as three federal firearms offenses arising from the incident on Sept. 15, 2024. He faces life in prison at his upcoming sentencing.

Judge Aileen Cannon from the U.S. District Court in the Southern District of Florida oversaw the trial process, in which Routh served as his own attorney.

"Today's guilty verdict against would-be Trump assassin Ryan Routh illustrates the Department of Justice's commitment to punishing those who engage in political violence," said U.S. Attorney General Pamela Bondi in a statement.

Trump called it "a very big moment for JUSTICE IN AMERICA" in a social media post.
