Evidence Gaps in Charlie Kirk Murder Case

News summary

Charlie Kirk was shot and killed on Sept. 10 while speaking at a Turning Point USA event at Utah Valley University. Twenty-two-year-old Tyler Robinson was arrested 33 hours later in southern Utah and has been charged with aggravated murder; prosecutors are considering pursuing the death penalty. Defense attorney Skye Lazaro says the prosecution’s case appears vulnerable and expects the defense to push discovery for months, potentially up to a year. Authorities allege Robinson returned to the scene and spoke with a perimeter officer before fleeing, but prosecutors have not disclosed when that contact occurred or whether the officer’s bodycam was recording. Prosecutors have released alleged text messages in which Robinson appears to confess, but the messages lack timestamps, and investigators say a high-powered bolt-action rifle wrapped in a towel with a spent cartridge nearby was recovered.
