The high-stakes murder trial of Tyler Robinson has ignited a fierce debate in Utah as taxpayers face an estimated $10 million bill to fund the defence of the man accused of assassinating conservative activist Charlie Kirk.

Matthew Robinson has been at his son's side since the beginning, even turning him over to the authorities.
