Man Found Guilty of Attempted Assassination of Trump

A jury found Ryan Routh guilty of trying to kill former President Donald Trump at a golf course.

Routh, representing himself, presented a minimal defense.

After the verdict, he tried to harm himself but wasn't hurt.

He faces a potential life sentence.

The trial was considered unusual because Routh chose to represent himself.

Sentencing is scheduled for December.
