The son of would-be assassin Ryan Routh was arrested for child pornography.
Oran Routh was taken into custody after investigators found hundreds of child porn files on his Galaxy Note during a search of his North Carolina residence over the weekend.
“A review of the SD card located in Device-1 revealed that it contained hundreds of child pornography files,” prosecutors wrote in the criminal complaint, according to ABC News. “These files include videos from a known child pornography series created outside the state of North Carolina.”
Oran Routh will appear in court on Tuesday on federal charges of possessing child pornography.
ABC News reported:
The son of Ryan Routh, the man arrested in connection with the second apparent assassination attempt of former President Donald Trump, has been taken into custody on federal charges of possessing child pornography.
Investigators say they discovered “hundreds” of files with child pornography during a search of Oran Routh’s residence in Guilford County, North Carolina, on Saturday conducted “in connection with an investigation unrelated to child exploitation.”
The two charges he faces include receipt of child pornography and possession of child pornography.
The “unrelated investigation” referred to Routh’s father — who remains in custody after a judge ordered him detained pending trial Monday — a spokesperson with the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Middle District of Carolina confirmed to ABC News.
Investigators said the pornography was found on a Samsung Galaxy Note device located inside Oran Routh’s primary bedroom in the residence, as well as another Galaxy Note device in Routh’s possession.
Ryan Routh appeared in court on Monday on two gun-related charges where a judge ordered him detained pending trial.
Oran previously spoke with the Daily Mail earlier this month.
“My dad hates Trump like every reasonable person does.” He even went so far as to say, “I don’t like Trump either,” but in the next breath tried to downplay his father’s actions, claiming, “He’s not a violent person.”
“He’s my dad and all he’s had is couple traffic tickets, as far as I know… That’s crazy. I know my dad and love my dad, but that’s nothing like him.”
“He said he was at the beach, but I thought that meant the outer banks in Hawaii,” Oran said.
The father and son had reportedly had a “falling out,” though Oran declined to elaborate on the reasons.
“I didn’t ask him for more information because we’ve had a falling out. We’ve grown apart.”
Despite their distance, Oran insisted, “He’s not a violent person. He’s a hard worker and a great dad. He’s a great dude, a nice guy and has worked his whole f***king life.”
So you look back at that very old saying “The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree” The old man has a warped mind and now you see the son is warped just like the old man They should make a movie about these two dumb and dumber I believe that people got with the old man and helped him believe that he could be a hero for our country if he murdered Trump The tip off was the flag around his neck He was told over and over what a national hero he would be I think they probably didn’t tell him that as soon as his rifle fires that is his last movement It is like that Crooks they had his ass zeroed in I can’t believe that the swamp was this sloppy The raid on Trump’s home they were looking for files that show all of the shady things that have gone on in our government and the people in it The idea to get the search was the bullshit charge but that was only to get in This is why they searched even in underwear drawers They didn’t find what they were looking for So democrats had the plan going to charge Trump in all of these bullshit cases I think the people that acted for the democrats are going to be very sorry for their actions I just wonder did those crooked judges get paid off enough to destroy them There will be more investigations and then that slide to the bottom Why do you think they are so afraid of Trump He can be trusted and he is not in it for the money He only wants to make our country to be what we should be Look at the people that have tried to get Trump Look at that biggest bucket of bullshit J6 so called committee I want those members to go to jail They have held people locked up and destroyed their lives because they were there What about the over 200 FBI agents leading the way The committee had all of the video and they still c
