A DC federal judge apologized Monday to the man accused of trying to assassinate President Trump and members of his cabinet at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner for the restrictive conditions he’s been subjected to in jail.

US Magistrate Judge Zia M. Faruqui told Cole Allen, 31, he was sorry that the suspect had been held under suicide watch despite a mental health exam finding he didn’t pose a threat to harm himself, according to Politico.

Faruqui said it was the court’s job to make sure Allen was jailed responsibly and safely, adding that he was “being treated differently than anyone I’ve ever observed.”

Prosecutor Jocelyn Ballantine said the FBI recommended the measure because Allen told agents after his apprehension April 25 that “he did not expect to survive the attempted assasination of the president.”

Tony Towns, a lawyer for the DC lockup, said Allen was in the isolated cell because of “ongoing” psych exams and that the decision to keep him there was made by medical staff at the facility.

But Faruqui said he didn’t think Allen’s statement meant he planned to kill himself but rather that he expected to be shot during his assault on the black-tie soiree at the Washington Hilton hotel.

Allen’s lawyers had initially requested Monday’s hearing but requested a cancellation Sunday, noting their client had finally been removed from suicide watch.

Faruqui declined to cancel the hearing, citing “grave concerns” about Allen’s treatment.

The Torrance, Calif., native is charged with attempting to assassinate the president, transporting a firearm and ammunition across state lines with intent to commit a felony, and discharge of a firearm during a crime of violence.
