22-year-old Tyler Robinson, has been named as the suspect in the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.
The announcement came from Utah Governor Spencer Cox during a press conference Tuesday, who revealed that Robinson’s capture came after a tip from a family member.
The revelation stunned the public and underscored the central role of Robinson’s own family in ending the manhunt. Sources said Robinson had confessed to his father, and a relative reported to authorities that he had become “more political” in recent years and expressed a deep dislike for Kirk.
