Charlie Kirk Suspected Killed Could Face De@th Penalty

Tyler Robinson has been accused of aggravated murder in the shooting death of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, with Utah prosecutors declaring their intent to seek the death penalty.

Utah County Attorney Jeff Gray detailed the accusation in a 10-page criminal information filed on September 16, laying the groundwork for a widely publicized court case in the months to come.

He accused Robinson, aged 22, of seven felony offenses, including aggravated murder, obstruction of justice, and witness tampering for allegedly directing his roommate to withhold cooperation from law enforcement.

“Charlie Kirk’s murd£r also strikes a more personal and intimate chord.,” Gray said. “Charlie Kirk was first and foremost a husband and father to two beautiful children, a son, a brother and a friend. I am charged with bringing justice for Charlie Kirk.”

Utah is one of 21 states that permit the de@th penalty.

Robinson underwent a 33-hour manhunt following Kirk’s de@th and the tumultuous scene at Utah Valley University. He was captured late on September 10 near his residence in St. George.

He was initially detained on accusations of aggravated murd£r, obstructing justice, and unlawfully discharging a firearm.

There remains a possibility that he could face additional federal charges if the state’s U.S. attorney decides to pursue them.
