Utah state prosecutors on Tuesday charged Tyler Robinson, the man accused of fatally shooting the far-right activist Charlie Kirk, with aggravated murder – and they say they intend to pursue the death penalty against the 22-year-old if he is convicted.
Jeff Gray, the top prosecutor in Utah county, where Kirk was fatally shot on 10 September, said Robinson also ordered his roommate to delete incriminating text messages and stay silent if police questioned him in the aftermath of the Turning Point USA executive director’s killing.
