The fight over who killed Charlie Kirk has gone beyond the courtroom and into a fierce online battle between right-wing commentators. A fight over one piece of forensic evidence has started a war of stories as Tyler Robinson fights the charges. What started as a technical argument about ballistics has turned into a fight over who is more credible, and some of the loudest voices in conservative media are now involved.
The disagreement at the heart of the storm is about how to read the claims about the bullet found during Kirk's autopsy. Robinson's lawyers say that the bullet couldn't be definitively linked to his rifle, but this point has been lost in viral posts and angry comments. The result is a messy fight for information where opinions, interpretations, and facts are all coming together in real time.
