The son of failed Donald Trump assassin Ryan Routh was arrested Tuesday on child porn charges. Oran Routh was detained after the feds said they found child porn on his phone while searching his North Carolina home “in connection with an investigation unrelated to child exploitation,” ABC News reported. That investigation, of course, is the case against Ryan Routh, 58, for attempting to assassinate Trump on Sept. 15 in Florida. Investigators found “hundreds” of child porn images on two phones in Oran Routh’s residence in Guilford County, N.C. when they searched it Saturday, according to a criminal complaint obtained by ABC News. One phone was in Oran Routh’s bedroom, and the other also belonged to him, authorities said. “These files include videos from a known child pornography series created outside the state of North Carolina,” the feds wrote.

(Martin County Sheriff’s Office via AP) Oran Routh was scheduled to appear Tuesday in federal court in North Carolina. He was charged with possessing and receiving child pornography. His father was also in federal prison Tuesday, after federal prosecutors successfully argued for him to remain behind bars in the Trump case. The Rouths reportedly owned a construction business on the Hawaiian island of Oahu, but Oran Routh began renting his own two-bedroom apartment in Guilford County in August 2024, according to the feds. Ryan Routh also voted in the North Carolina Democratic primary in March 2024, but the feds said only Oran Routh was approved to live in the residence where the phones containing child porn were found. In a bail hearing on Monday, the feds said Ryan Routh wrote a note before attempting to kill Trump, spelling out his intentions and apologizing for his failure. “This was an assassination attempt on Donald Trump, but I am so sorry I failed you,” Routh wrote. “I tried my best and gave it all the gumption I could muster. It is up to you now to finish the job; and I will offer $150,000 to whomever can complete the job.” Routh didn’t fire any shots at Trump, as Secret Service agents spotted him while he was hiding in the bushes. Routh ran after agents spotted his SKS rifle and opened fire on him, but he was captured shortly afterward on a nearby highway.
