The suspect in Charlie Kirk’s assassination became ‘more political’ in recent years and spoke about disliking the conservative activist’s ideas, officials said on Thursday.
The suspect was named as 22-year-old Tyler Robinson, from Washington, Utah.
Robinson was turned into police overnight by his father and a minister in southern Utah after authorities shared images of the shooter.
Charlie Kirk’s assassin motive revealed
Tyler Robinson had become more political in recent years, officials said.
‘In the conversation with another family member, Robinson mentioned Charlie Kirk was coming to UVU. They talked about why they didn’t like him and the viewpoints that he had,’ the governor said.
The suspect reportedly talked about disliking Charlie Kirk at a recent dinner with family, where he mentioned the conservative was coming to Utah, authorities said.
Robinson allegedly said at the dinner that ‘Kirk was full of hate and spreading hate.’
Bullet casings discovered by investigators had several inscriptions engraved on them, Cox said. The casing that had been fired read: ‘notices bulges OWO what’s this?’
Cox said there were three unfired casings:
One read, ‘hey fascist! catch!’ with an up arrow symbol, right arrow symbol, and three down arrow symbols.
Another one read: ‘oh bella ciao bella ciao bella ciao ciao ciao,’ Cox said.
The third fired casing read: ‘if you read this you are gay lmao.’
