瑞安·鲁斯试图刺杀唐纳德·特朗普案进入结案陈词阶段
摘要
瑞安·鲁斯被控去年在佛罗里达州的高尔夫球场试图刺杀唐纳德·特朗普，现已进入结案陈词阶段。
瑞安·鲁斯被控于2024年9月在西棕榈滩的高尔夫球场试图刺杀唐纳德·特朗普，案件定于周二进行结案陈词。鲁斯虽无正式法律培训，但选择自我辩护，他于周一结束辩护，期间传唤了三名证人：一名枪械专家和两位多年的朋友。
在庭审过程中，美国地区法官艾琳·坎农提醒鲁斯遵守法庭规程，强调任何偏离都可能导致庭审中断。坎农法官问鲁斯：“你提出的任何论点……必须合理地与已采纳的证据相关联。你明白吗？”她强调必须在呈现的证据范围内进行辩论的重要性。
控方指控鲁斯精心策划了刺杀行动，包括购买军用级武器、调查特朗普的行踪，并使用多部一次性手机。事发当天，鲁斯据称藏身于特朗普高尔夫球场第六洞附近，携带步枪，且在开枪前被一名特勤局特工发现。
鲁斯面临五项联邦指控：企图刺杀主要总统候选人、在犯罪中使用枪械、袭击联邦官员、作为重罪犯持有枪械以及使用涂改序列号的枪支。如果被定罪，他可能面临终身监禁。
结案陈词结束后，陪审团将开始审议，决定鲁斯在各项指控上的罪责。坎农法官提醒陪审员他们的职责：“你们每个人必须自行裁决此案，但必须在与其他陪审员充分考虑证据后进行。请记住，从某种意义上说，你们就是事实的法官。你们唯一的职责是从案件证据中寻找真相。”
