Summary
The Department of Justice (DOJ) has announced its cooperation with the state of Florida in investigating the alleged assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump. This decision follows a second assassination attempt against Trump, which occurred on September 15, 2024, when a suspect was apprehended near Trump’s golf course in West Palm Beach.
In the wake of this incident, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis expressed concerns about the federal government’s involvement in the investigation, suggesting that local authorities might handle the case more effectively given the context of ongoing federal prosecutions against Trump. Attorney General Merrick Garland confirmed that the DOJ would work alongside Florida’s independent investigation, emphasizing the seriousness of the attempt and the need for accountability. The cooperation comes as both federal and state authorities seek to gather evidence and ensure that all aspects of the case are thoroughly examined. The DOJ’s involvement is seen as a means to provide resources and expertise while respecting the state’s jurisdiction in this matter.
