Tyler Robinson Found Involved in Alleged Plot Against Charlie Kirk
A verdict has been reached regarding the alleged assassination plot against conservative commentator Charlie Kirk involving a suspect named Tyler Robinson. Reports indicate that Robinson, aged 22, used the messaging platform Discord to communicate his intentions, although the company has disputed certain claims about these messages.
Investigators interviewed Robinson’s roommate, who revealed conversations between Robinson and an account named “Tyler.” In these exchanges, “Tyler” discussed acquiring a “unique” rifle, hiding it in a bush, monitoring the area, and concealing it with a towel. Messages also referenced the engraving of bullets and using a scope, raising concerns about a potential attack.
Utah Governor Spencer Cox confirmed that law enforcement discovered a bolt-action rifle equipped with a scope, concealed in a dark towel, alongside bullet casings that bore unusual inscriptions. Some of these inscriptions included phrases such as “Notices bulges owo,” “Hey fascist! Catch!” and “o bella ciao, bella ciao.” Another message read: “if you read this you are gay lmao.”
According to a spokesperson for Discord, the company did identify an account linked to Robinson; however, they clarified that the messages cited by Governor Cox were not sent via their platform. The spokesperson stated, “We are deeply saddened by this tragedy and extend our condolences to the Kirk family and everyone affected. In the course of our investigation, we identified a Discord account associated with the suspect, but have found no evidence that the suspect planned this incident or promoted violence on Discord.”
The spokesperson further elaborated that the messages referenced in recent reports were communications made by the suspect’s roommate to a friend after the alleged shooting took place. These messages were described as recounting the contents of a note left by Robinson at a separate location. In response to the situation, Discord has removed Robinson’s account for violating their off-platform behavior policy, emphasizing their condemnation of violence, including political violence, and their commitment to cooperating with law enforcement.
This incident has raised significant concerns regarding the potential for coordinated acts of violence facilitated through social media platforms. Authorities continue to investigate the matter thoroughly as they aim to understand the full context of Robinson’s actions and their implications for public safety.
