Prosecutors on Tuesday filed the charge of attempted assassination of a major presidential candidate against Ryan Wesley Routh, the man they say camped outside of Donald Trump’s West Palm Beach golf course for hours on end, armed with a rifle that he pointed through a chain-link fence with a clear shot to the next hole where the former president was headed on September 15.

    Oh he’s screwed. She’s going to sentence him to be hung hanged, drawn, and quartered for trying to kill her lord and savior.

      Alternatively… she’s so fucking incompetent that he gets off without a sentence because she fucks up procedure that thoroughly.

        Assuming he has a competent lawyer. Very possible she sucks and so does his lawyer.

        Probably a more likely scenario.

      Hanged. Hung is the past tense for an object being suspended. Hanged is the past tense for when you refer to someone being killed by hanging.

        Maybe they did mean hung, drawn and quartered.

        https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Hung

        In that case, I’d rather be hanged.
