Ryan Routh, the man charged with trying to assassinate President Donald Trump two months before the 2024 election, can represent himself during his upcoming trial, a federal judge ruled on July 24.

U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon granted Routh’s request to represent himself at his trial in September, but said that court-appointed lawyers must remain as standby counsel. His federal public defenders asked to be removed from the case earlier this week after saying that Routh had refused multiple requests to meet with them.
