A journey from N.C. to Ukraine to suspect in apparent assassination attempt
Briefly

Months before he allegedly pointed a semiautomatic rifle into a Florida golf course, Ryan Routh described himself as a failure, with no assets or savings.
Routh's long journey left friends mystified; while he could be intense and odd, many did not find him threatening despite his recent troubling views.
His e-book revealed an obsession with political assassination, as he questioned why no one had killed Putin and suggested it was okay for Iran to assassinate Trump.
Post-Ukrainian conflict involvement, Routh increasingly exhibited troubling behavior, causing friends to alert U.S. agencies regarding his disturbing activities and changing perception.
