Cole Allen, the man accused of attempting a shooting at the White House Correspondents' Dinner, is seeking a court order to end the suicide precautions imposed on him, arguing they infringe on his legal rights.
Attorneys for Allen stated that during the booking process, he was placed under suicide watch without his consent. They claim this measure is unnecessary and violates his constitutional protections.
The request comes as the legal case against Allen proceeds, with prosecutors alleging he planned an attack at the annual event. No further details on the judge's response have been released.
