Overview

• FBI Director Kash Patel said DNA matching Tyler Robinson was found on a towel wrapped around the recovered rifle and on a screwdriver from the rooftop.
• Investigators say remnants of a pre-shooting note indicate intent to “take out Charlie Kirk,” and Patel said the suspect told another person of his plan before the attack.
• The Washington Post reported an apparent Discord confession hours before Robinson surrendered, while Discord says it found no evidence the plot was planned on its platform.
• Robinson is jailed without bail and not cooperating as Utah authorities prepare aggravated or capital murder and related charges ahead of a Tuesday court appearance.
• Officials are examining his digital footprint, including evidence he tracked Kirk’s events and reviewed campus maps, and analyzing ammunition engraved with anti-fascist and meme references.
