GOVERNMENT’S MEMORANDUM IN SUPPORT OF PRETRIAL DETENTION

29 APRIL 2026

Case No. 1:26-mj-00080 v. COLE TOMAS ALLEN, Defandant

The United States of America, by and through its attorney, the United States Attorney for the District of Columbia, respectfully submits this memorandum in support of its oral motion to detain defendant Cole Tomas Allen pending trial. The defendant attempted to kill the President of the United States, Donald J. Trump. The crimes with which the defendant is charged are among the most serious in the United States Code, and the evidence of his guilt is overwhelming.

He faces a possible sentence of life in prison (if convicted of 18 U.S.C. § 1751(c)) and a mandatory minimum sentence of ten years consecutive to any other sentence imposed (if convicted of 18 U.S.C. § 924(c)(1)(A)(iii)). The defendant’s actions were premeditated, violent, and calculated to cause death. Considering the relevant statutory factors, there is no condition or combination of conditions that will reasonably assure the safety of other people or the community if the defendant were released from custody. The Court should detain the defendant pending trial.

I think the agent who drew his pistol and got off two rounds, hit the agent across from him with the second. The agent standing by the case at the beginning.

I have been saying this for a couple of years. With all the illegal and violent shit they have been caught doing, why in the world would we believe they would not cheat during elections? That's the first thing they would d, and certainly before violence. They've been doing it for years with poor results. That's why they are getting violent now.

Only the dog did his job


Holy crap! I cannot believe this. So many questions. What was the guy with the dog looking at when he was peering in that room? Why didn't he get suspicious when the dog was clearly picking up a scent? Why were they removing the metal detection barricades while the event was still in progress? Why was no one watching the hallway?

I hate to see people fired, but this situation could have been a disaster for the country. People could have died. Heads have to roll to send a message that this cannot happen again.

It is shocking frankly. In every case of a Trump assassination attempt, security has been pretty lax.

I was on this literally the next day and stayed on it in this thread. Couldn't believe it wasn't a topic at all, in the coverage.
And they literally get caught flat footed as the would be assassin ran right by them. Nobody tackled him. I didn't see any training kick in.

It's mind boggling. Failure on so many levels.

I also still cannot believe that people who are supposed to be extremely well trained and highly proficient in firing weapons could be that close and NONE of them hit that perp either.

I can only imagine the media uproar if Obama had been in these same three situations with this lax of security. Would have been pure outrage.
