What else do we know about Trump’s attempt to kill?
During the trial, the witnesses told the court that the defendant had run away without firing a bullet, when he was seen by the American Secret Service agents, patrolling at the Trump International Golf Club in the West Palm Beach.
The suspect ran into a black SUV and later expanded by local law enforcement to the nearby Martin County.
The secret service agent, who was the president and the presidential candidate and other dignitaries, when he fired shots in the suspect, was scouting in front of Trump on a security sweep.
Police attacked the rifle and near a Gopro camera in the bushes, where the suspect was seen.
Prosecutor John Shipli said at the inauguration of the test, “The conspiracy was carefully prepared and fatal was serious.”
Without the intervention of the secret service, Trump “won’t be alive,” Shiple said.
The incident came two months after Trump escaped from another murder attempt when he was speaking at a operation rally in Pennsylvania, in which a bullet caught his ear.
