Overview

  • Utah Gov. Spencer Cox said suspect Tyler Robinson, 22, has not confessed and remains noncooperative in custody.
  • A judicial affidavit outlines plans to file aggravated murder, criminal use of a firearm, and obstruction of justice charges in the coming days.
  • Relatives and the roommate provided investigators with tips and Discord messages referencing a hidden rifle and engraved ammunition.
  • Police recovered a scoped Mauser 98 near the UVU campus and matched it to spent casings etched with memes and antifascist phrases.
