An FBI evidence specialist testified Monday that Ryan Routh\u2019s<\/a> black Nissan Xterra was cluttered with clothing, tools and handwritten notes \u2014 and appeared as though someone had been living in it \u2014 when she searched it the day after his arrest.<\/p>\n

FBI<\/a> Special Agent Cindy Barrois, an Evidence Response Team leader in the Miami Field Office, said the Xterra\u2019s back seats were folded down with what looked like a mattress.<\/p>\n

“It appeared the vehicle was lived in,” she said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In court Monday, she displayed six cellphones collected from the SUV, Routh\u2019s expired Hawaii driver\u2019s license, a valid U.S. passport and handwritten notes \u2014 including a list with “pipe,” “C-clamp,” “blanket,” “pillow,” “tape,” “paint,” “green poncho” and phone numbers.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Another note listed flight options to Mexico and Colombia under the name “Bryan Wilson.” A separate Bank of Hawaii paper read, “Make tourniquet.”<\/p>\n

PROSECUTION PRESSES FORWARD AS RYAN ROUTH TRIAL RESUMES ON DAY 6<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Routh is on trial representing himself for federal charges filed against him for allegedly attempting to assassinate Donald Trump<\/a> exactly one year ago on Sept. 15, 2024.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Barrois testified the vehicle was “not organized,” and included food, tools, gloves, a disposable tablecloth and a .45-caliber cartridge casing in the glove box. Photos shown to jurors included the passport in the driver\u2019s area, multiple phones and where they were found, and a close-up of the .45 casing.\u00a0<\/p>\n

She also pointed to alleged stickers on the Xterra that appeared to have been blacked out with spray paint, showing drip marks. Items presented in court from the SUV included a red Harbor Freight flashlight, an Akaso camera battery, a black metal rod like those used in chain-link fences, multiple pairs of work gloves, a black mask, poncho and zip tie in a Ziploc and a large quantity of orange earplugs.<\/p>\n

Prosecutors also walked jurors through receipts they say place Routh in Palm Beach County, Florida, for weeks: cash overnight-parking slips from a Marathon gas station in South Bay, Florida, dated Aug. 14 (eight nights), Aug. 21 (six nights), Aug. 29 (six nights), Sept. 5 (six nights) and Sept. 12 (four nights), plus local receipts from Dollar Tree, Family Dollar and McDonald\u2019s.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Jurors also saw two unopened cans of Vienna sausages and a 56-ounce SunnyD bottle allegedly found in the car, along with a SunnyD receipt. Barrois said North Carolina and Ohio license plates were recovered under the driver\u2019s seat; a North Carolina registration in the glove box listed Routh\u2019s daughter, Sara Ellen Routh.<\/p>\n

RYAN ROUTH TRIAL: JURY SELECTION BEGINS IN TRUMP ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT CASE<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Routh, representing himself, asked whether some items “could have been in there for years” and why one photo showed the .45-caliber casing in the glove box and another did not. For the first time in the trial, the prosecution came up after Routh\u2019s cross-examination to “re-direct” the witness with further questioning.<\/p>\n

Routh also said there were dress clothes in the SUV and referenced a note that read, “If you need this car moved text,” listing numbers for “Sarah” and “Oran.”<\/p>\n

Later, FBI Evidence Analysis Request Coordinator Erin Farais testified about items removed from the SKS rifle. She said a fingerprint was found on tape from the gun but did not identify whose it was. \u00a0<\/p>\n

When Routh asked whether removing tape affected scope accuracy testing, Judge Aileen Cannon told jurors, “This case isn\u2019t about how accurate the gun shoots.”<\/a><\/p>\n

Court staff told media that trial exhibits will be made public only after the proceedings conclude.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Routh also told the judge he hadn\u2019t decided whether to call his son, Oran, to the witness stand. Judge Cannon noted “a lot of work” had gone into arranging his transport.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Prosecutors said additional FBI forensic witnesses \u2014 including a firearms\/toolmark examiner \u2014 were slated to follow.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
