A chaotic scene unfolded outside court on Tuesday after President Trump’s would-be assassin Ryan Routh was convicted of trying to kill the president.

The wannabe killer’s daughter angrily yelled at reporters to ‘get the f**k out of [her] face’ as she attempted to pursue the police vehicle transporting her father.

Sarah Ellen Routh appeared distressed as she ran from the courthouse in Florida after the verdict against her father was handed down.

Routh was found guilty for his September 2024 attempt to assassinate Donald Trump, who was a presidential candidate at the time, at a golf course he owns in Palm Beach, Florida.

Sarah Ellen allegedly screamed expletives in the courtroom before storming out of the building after the verdict was handed down. 

Outside, she was approached by camera crews hoping to speak with her about the decision.

Instead, she ran from the building and shouted: ‘Get the f**k out of my face.’

Separate footage captured her waiting by the back gates as several police cars filed out of the building.

She appeared to be trying to spot her father in the tinted out windows of the cars.

Routh was convicted over a September 2024 attempt to assassinate Donald Trump , then a presidential candidate, at one of his golf courses in Palm Beach, Florida

Routh was found guilty for his September 2024 attempt to assassinate Donald Trump, who was a presidential candidate at the time, at a golf course he owns in Palm Beach, Florida.

Routh, 59, was caught by authorities during a manhunt last year after Secret Service agents spotted him in some bushes outside of one of Trump’s golf courses as the Republican played a round. 

A gun and a camera were found at the scene where Routh fled. 

After the verdict was read, Routh began jabbing at his neck with a pen.

Routh was found guilty of attempted assassination of a major presidential candidate, felony possession of a firearm and ammunition, possession of a firearm with an obliterated serial number, possession of a firearm in furtherance of a crime of violence and assaulting a federal officer.

He faces a maximum sentence of life in prison. His sentencing is expected on December 18.

The attempt occurred on September 15, 2024, just nine weeks after Trump survived another attempted assassination in Butler, Pennsylvania. 

Routh opted to represent himself at trial despite warnings against doing so.

In a deranged motion filed days before the trial kicked off, he requested strippers and a putting green for his imagined extravaganza.

‘A round of golf with the racist pig, he wins he can execute me, I win I get his job,’ Routh wrote in the motion.

Trump congratulated Attorney General Pam Bondi and her department after the conviction.

‘The trial was meticulously handled, and I would like to thank the Judge and Jury for their time, professionalism, and patience,’ the president said in a statement.

‘This was an evil man with an evil intention, and they caught him.’
