Man accused of trying to kill Trump rests his defense following chaotic testimony [View all]

Source: ABC News

Ryan Routh, who is representing himself as he faces charges of trying to kill Donald Trump on Trump's West Palm Beach golf course last year, rested his defense at his trial in Florida Monday following some chaotic testimony.

Routh, who lacks any legal education or experience, was cut off multiple times by U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon while questioning the three witnesses he called, two of whom testified about his character.

Routh declined to testify in his own defense. Closing arguments are scheduled for Tuesday morning.

Judge Cannon ended the day by warning Routh that she will bar him from further addressing the jury if his closing argument is "disconnected" from the evidence in the case.
