Takeaways from AP's report on warning signs about suspect in apparent Trump assassination attempt

At least four times, tips were made to U.S. government agencies including the FBI and State Department that raised suspicions about the actions of a man now accused in the apparent assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump.

What was done in response to these reports that could have stopped Ryan Routh or at least put him under greater scrutiny is not entirely clear but some people are questioning whether enough was done.

Nurse Chelsea Walsh says she never heard back after reporting Routh’s violent behavior in 2022 while he was recruiting foreign soldiers for the war in Ukraine.

“The authorities have definitely dropped the ball on this,” she said. “They were warned.”
