White House Press Dinner Shooting Suspect to Face More Charges, Pirro Says

The US Attorney for the District of Columbia, Jeanine Pirro, said she will issue more charges against the man accused of trying to assassinate President Donald Trump at a press dinner gala over the weekend.

“There will be many more charges,” Pirro said during an interview on Fox News’ America’s Newsroom program Thursday. While investigators are still reviewing evidence from gunfire outside the hotel ballroom where Trump was attending the gala, information collected so far shows “this defendant was calculated, he was premeditated,” she said. “He had every intention of killing the president and anyone who got in his way.”
