Murderers don’t come from just one background. It isn’t limited by gender, income, education, or opportunity.

History shows killers who came from privilege just as much as from poverty
If you want to go back even further, the Leopold and Loeb case of 1924.

I just told my adult son that making that decision would have been the hardest struggle of my life. But, you can't murder someone like that and not face consequences.
IMO.
And, can't be allowed to commit further violence against other people. It's a no brainer, really, even if totally heartbreaking, to make the decision the father made. jmo

"Hey Facist, catch"

One of the inscriptions on the bullet casings. (as per the presser)

Probably says something about his personal motivation.

Charlie Kirk Assassination press conference:

"We got him."A family member of Tyler Robinson reached out to a family friend, who contacted the sheriff's department that he had confessed.Arrived on campus at 8:29 in a grey dodge challenger.Robinson was observed in the same clothing as seen in surveillance images.

Became more political in recent years. Robinson had come to dinner and mentioned Charlie Kirk was coming to UVU. Talked about why they didn't like him and the viewpoints that he had. Talked about Kirk "spreading hate."Discord messages showed Tyler talking about retrieving a rifle from a "drop point." Talked about rifle being wrapped in a towel. Talked about engraving bullets and scope and rifle being unique.

So much
I was just looking through the photos on his mom’s Facebook. They really looked like the All American family. Lots of smiles and family activities together. Vacations, sports, camp, riding 4 wheelers, Hawaii trips, cruises…the works. And their eldest boy Tyler was the apple of his mother’s eye.

What went so wrong? So sad, I bet his parents are distraught. What a world we live in where someone feels empowered to pull this off.

Did I hear correctly that TR's roommate had messages from him about the gun in a towel that he left etc?
Did the roommate not come forward with these messages while LE was trying to identify/capture the shooter?
imo

From presser, the casings did have inscriptions but most were cryptic to my ears. Disturbed, whatever they were.

I missed the second one he said.

How will his defence be funded? Will his obviously very decent family be expected to beggar themselves to pay for it?

in one of the first pictures that was posted of him here he’s wearing a t-shirt that says “be the change you want to see in the world”. my feeling is that he probably wanted to make a positive change by taking out someone he saw as a bad guy. obviously very, very misguided. he must have felt like (despite what it looks like from the outside) losing his future wasn’t a very big loss. throw in some desensitisation to violence, some black and white thinking, being able to forget that someone whose politics you despise is still human, some “wanting to be someone” in the grand scheme of things. jmo.

I'm guessing he used a towel from home that his mother likely purchased. I know that is the least thing to worry about, but I just feel the gut punch she likely feels.

Yes, since this presser it is apparent that is the case. NOT THE WAY TO BE THE CHANGE. Obviously.

I am confused in terms of the car, it will have licence plates on so the owner details would be easily traceable, could have been a hire car or stolen but i would have thought police could have found him via the car

Evidence will convict him easily, imo. Thankful the perp was caught in such a clean way and this didn't linger and no one was hurt.

If he confessed then very unlikely he will plead not guilty, a standard court house/police lawyer could handle this case
