Overview
- Tyler Robinson is charged with aggravated murder in the Sept. 10 shooting of Charlie Kirk, and prosecutors say they will pursue the death penalty as he has not entered a plea.
- Messages reviewed by reporters show Robinson shared his Wordle result roughly 55 minutes before the gunfire at Utah Valley University.
- About 80 minutes after the shooting, Robinson allegedly messaged a friend on Discord about the incident and later told friends in a voice chat he believed Kirk had died.
- Prosecutors point to a post-incident message to a roommate — including the lines “I had enough of his hatred” and “Some hate can’t be negotiated out” — as evidence of intent.
- Authorities say Robinson fled and surrendered after a family member contacted police, and his first in-person court appearance prompted arguments over media access.
