Tyler Robinson ‘not guilty’ plea in Charlie Kirk case: Candace Owens makes chilling declaration - ‘lies will be exposed’
Podcaster Candace Owens made a chilling declaration as Tyler Robinson entered a not guilty plea after being accused of the murder of Charlie Kirk.
US District Judge Tony Graf has ruled that Tyler Robinson, the suspect accused of assassinating conservative activist Charlie Kirk, will stand trial for the murder. Prosecutors claim they have "overwhelming" evidence that Robinson shot Kirk once in the neck while the Trump ally was speaking to a large crowd in Orem, Utah, last September.
Robinson's lawyers attempted to block the trial and the death penalty, arguing that prosecutors did not prove Kirk's shooting endangered others, but the judge upheld the aggravated murder charge based on several factors. Kirk's family welcomed the ruling, expressing relief and gratitude for the support they have received during their year-long grief.
Robinson, 23, turned himself in a day after the shooting. Prosecutors allege he shot the activist from a rooftop more than 400 feet away, knowing he could have missed and potentially killing others. DNA evidence, messages with his romantic partner, and posts on Discord are among the "mountain of evidence" cited by the prosecutors.
Robinson faces a potential death penalty if convicted, and his lawyers question whether there is sufficient evidence to prove political motivation behind the killing.
