During the manhunt for Tyler Robinson, the governor of Utah, Spencer Cox, revealed he had been deep in a 33-hour prayer session for one thing: that Charlie Kirk’s killer would turn out to be an “outsider,” such as an immigrant.
There are many tragedies tied to Charlie Kirk’s murder. He is survived by a widow and two children. The U.S. is more polarized than ever. Even on the suspect’s side, it was reportedly Tyler Robinson’s father who chose to turn his son in, even as President Donald Trump was on television saying he hoped for the death penalty. An unimaginable feat, and a strong statement of the family’s commitment to justice, even when they were on the wrong end of it. These are the real tragedies to consider when reflecting on this murder – Governor Cox’s unanswered prayer is not one of them.
