Cole Allen, 31, accused of attempting to assassinate President Donald Trump at the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner last month, pleads not guilty to federal charges. Multiple outlets report that Allen enters the plea in federal court and does not speak during the hearing, with his public defender delivering the plea on his behalf. According to accounts from the courtroom, Allen appears with shackles around his wrists as the case proceeds. The plea covers four federal charges related to the alleged attempt. One report notes the hearing takes place Monday morning in federal court. Coverage from different outlets consistently describes the same core steps of the proceedings: Allen’s appearance in court, the entry of a not guilty plea by his attorney, and his lack of direct statements to the court during the hearing. The outlets do not present additional details about the underlying allegations beyond the charge count and the alleged incident at the WHCA dinner.
