“Prosecutors are expected to rest their case Thursday in the federal trial of Ryan Routh — accused of attempting to assassinate President Donald Trump at his West Palm Beach golf club in 2024 — after Wednesday’s testimony centered on a gray storage box, a 12-page ‘Dear World’ letter and accounts from longtime acquaintances. Prosecutors used FBI Special Agent Garett Foo to walk jurors through the gray box recovered in North Carolina, which contained phones, ammunition, an ‘improvised firing mechanism’ and Routh’s alleged handwritten ‘Dear World’ letter. Per Judge Aileen Cannon’s ruling, jurors were shown only the first three sentences of that letter, including: ‘This was an assassination attempt on Donald Trump … I will offer $150,000 to whomever can complete the job.'” (09/18/25)
