31-year-old Cole Thomas Allen faces serious charges after the armed invasion of the White House event in White House in Washington.
The case of the armed attack during the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner is taking on dramatic proportions, with Cole Thomas Allen now officially charged with attempted murder of Donald Trump.
The 31-year-old gunman appeared in federal court on Monday, facing criminal charges for the incident that caused panic and the immediate removal of the U.S. president.
According to figures released by the Associated Press, the attack was accompanied by an exchange of fire, leading attendees to seek shelter under the venue’s tables.
Authorities are now focusing on the manifesto and messages sent by Allen shortly before the attack, attempting to outline his psychological profile and the reasons for his actions.
In the text the investigators examined, the defendant:
- He calls himself “Friendly Federal Killer“.
- Directly targets the Trump administration without using the president’s name.
- Expresses strong displeasure with specific government actions.
Federal authorities are thoroughly analyzing his posts on social media and the testimony of his family members.
The investigation aims to determine whether Allen acted as a “lone wolf” or whether there was a larger plan behind the attempt at a time when security around the White House has been dramatically tightened.
