Caption: Charlie Kirk Shooting Suspect Tyler Robinson Charged with Murder after ‘Gentle’ Surrender. Charlie Kirk shooting suspect Tyler Robinson surrendered under what officials called “gentle” conditions, according to the Washington County Sheriff’s Office. Robinson, 22, turned himself in on Sept. 11 after his father recognized him in photos released by authorities. Robinson, fearful of being shot by police, drove with his father and a family friend to the sheriff’s office in Hurricane, Utah. He was described as quiet and somber as FBI and local authorities took custody before dawn on Sept. 13. Prosecutors have charged Robinson with aggravated murder, announcing they will seek the death penalty, along with firearm and obstruction charges. Charging documents say Robinson admitted to his parents he was the shooter, claiming Kirk spread “too much hate”. Investigators also revealed text messages and a handwritten note left for his roommate outlining his plan to kill Kirk. The FBI is now investigating more than 20 individuals linked to Robinson’s Discord group, where he allegedly confessed before his arrest.
