Judge Orders Release of Largely Unsealed Transcript, Redacted Audio in Tyler Robinson Case

The court required advance notice to media before bids to close records after declining their request for party status.

Overview

  • Fourth District Judge Tony Graf said the Oct. 24 hearing transcript will be posted by day’s end with only about 246 words redacted from roughly 80 pages.
  • A redacted audio recording of the closed hearing will be released in about two weeks, with redactions limited to security details.
  • The sealed hearing concerned courtroom appearance rules; Robinson may wear civilian clothes but must remain restrained, and media are barred from showing his shackles.
  • Robinson attended Monday’s proceeding by audio only and confirmed his presence when addressed by the judge.
  • Media will receive notice before any motion to seal records or close hearings, though separate requests to limit cameras need not be noticed; an in‑person hearing is set for Jan. 16 to address pending motions, with a preliminary hearing scheduled for the week of May 18.
