UT - Charlie Kirk Murdered on Utah College Stage *Arrest*

[justtrish]

I'm watching FoxNews live and the President is on the show and he just said they have him in custody and he believes someone close to him turned him in. He said he just heard about it 5 minutes before he walked out to go on the show. He believes it will be announced later today.

I'll say IMO since I don't have a link, but it's on live TV right now.

Edited to add additional details. He said his family was involved in turning him in possibly the father.

Still wondering on the hats and looking for possible matchups, finding these, NOT saying this is what his hat is. But wondering. Colorado Trail Hats:

"The Quiet Life" triangle:

All I can make out with my earlier blowups of the actual cap & logo on the person they're looking for is a white blob, seriously.

I'm relieved you see it, too. Not sure it's a tail, but it's something.

Hate quoting my own post but building on the same idea with that hat and what looks like a little tail with the blob inside the triangle. What about something like this inside the triangle? NOT saying this is what is actually on the hat in question, just speculating:


It's a pretty big deal, evidently, to complete the Colorado Trail, it goes from Denver to Durango.

They got him? I'm seeing someone was released. NYTimes saying still at large.

Building where person in video was on the roof is the Losee Center, I guess it's like the student support center where students could get academic counseling, tutoring, health/mental health services, etc. (Apologies if already in the thread.) UVU evolved over the years into a university, it began as a technical school, eventually community college, college, university. Seeing this:

Student saw man on roof: A Utah Valley student told CNN they saw a man walking on or near the roof of the Losee Center twice in two weeks. The student called the man’s behavior “weird” and said a professor who was also there called out to ask if the man was okay

@snooptroop88 thanks for link.

If these sightings are true he may have also walked the distance from the building to the area of the tent Charlie was under, pre placed the weapon found and he used one which could be broken down to fit in backpack.

The box is bizarre as well. I'm sure we've all seen enough crime scene/evidence pictures to know that they photograph the weapon as it was found... It was found in its/a box?! The shooter carried the rifle into a wooded area and popped it in a box that was already there? Like why would the crime scene tecs pick up the rifle and place it in a box for photos? I've never seen that before. The feds stated the weapon was wrapped in a towel - where is the towel in the image?

The article states the gun "was discovered wrapped in a towel." It was likely placed in an evidence box by investigators.

I have a question.
How would the perp know early where exactly the tent was to be situated?
I mean,
if he made earlier reconnaissance to choose the "best" spot.

Or,
was this particular roof adequate for any place of the tent?

If this is true then huge respect for this father, especially with the talk already about the death penalty being on the table. I also think it is safer for his son to be in custody, but it can't be easy to turn your child in.

 

[BrianJohnson]

Sounds like him, Trump would not lie about the murder of one of his closest friends

CNN is recording that the assassin has been captured and is in custody.

There’s a court yard there, fountain court yard.

Charlie Kirk, a media figure known for his political nonprofit organization Turning Point USA (TPUSA), is hosting a debate in the UVU Fountain Courtyard Wednesday, Sept 10 at 12 p.m. Kirk is a popular conservative political figure, with 6.9 million followers on Instagram, who uses rhetoric that often sparks controversy.

I wonder if the father will get the money? Not saying he brought him in for that reason but I think he deserves it for doing the right thing.

There may have been quite fairly early protests about his appearance from those who didn't want to see it.

 

[Hexe]

I disagree. He debated in Oxford and Cambridge earlier this year which got good news coverage. He founded a second chapter of the Turning Point organization in Cambridge. He spoke in Japan and South Korea a week or so ago.

I did not say he is unknown out of the States. He is not very well known though, not well enough, IMO, to make a foreigner wanting to kill him. A foreigner that is after far right politicians would find plenty of these in his homeland, I'd say.

Could you please provide a link to confirmation that the bullets were marked with transgender slogans? TIA.

ETA: I thought LE had walked that back.

The WSJ retracted that story last night.
IMO.

He definitely should in my opinion. Turned him in to the firing squad really. Oh my!

 

[IceIce9]

11 MINUTES AGO Trump posted I think we have him. Turned in by someone very close to him.

I have been listening to the radio, they broke in with national news that the assassin has been caught. Awaiting the scheduled news conference.
