A Utah court is reviewing a taped statement by the roommate of Tyler Robinson, accused of killing Charlie Kirk. The statement, recorded in April, describes the events leading up to the fatal shooting on September 10, 2025.
Case Details
The roommate told prosecutors that Robinson left their apartment early in the morning, around 4 or 5 a.m., saying he had a long drive to work. The roommate is considered a key witness in the case, with investigators emphasizing messages exchanged between the two after the shooting, including an alleged confession by Robinson.
Prosecutors granted the roommate limited immunity in exchange for the videotaped statement. The statement is being presented during a multiday preliminary hearing, where prosecutors are displaying evidence to convince a judge to proceed to trial on charges of aggravated murder and six other counts.
