The man accused of trying to assassinate Donald Trump on his West Palm Beach golf course tried to stab himself in the neck after the verdict and was forcibly removed from court.

Federal prosecutors called 38 witnesses over a span of seven days who placed Routh at the scene and testified that the suspect could have killed Trump had he not been caught.
