Grandmother of Charlie Kirk Murder Suspect Breaks Silence on Arrest and Reveals Why 'FBI Have the Wrong Man'

Tyler Robinson was arrested 250 miles from the Utah shooting location within 33 hours, with evidence including pro-Communist messages on bullets, FBI said.

  • On September 12, 2025, FBI Director Kash Patel and Utah Governor Spencer Cox addressed the media at an event held on the campus of Utah Valley University to discuss the assassination of Charlie Kirk, CEO of Turning Point USA.
  • The investigation followed Kirk's shooting during a student Q&A two days earlier and drew on multi-agency coordination involving local law enforcement and multiple FBI divisions across the U.S.
  • Authorities identified 22-year-old Tyler Robinson as the suspect after he confessed or indicated his involvement to his father, who then informed law enforcement; Robinson was apprehended about 250 miles away from the scene within 33 hours.
  • FBI officials praised the rapid arrest as a testament to modern investigative tools and law enforcement teamwork, while former agent Stuart Kaplan forecasted federal charges and described the assassination as domestic terrorism.
  • President Trump denounced the murderer as a "total animal" and promised that appropriate measures would be taken. The event also led to demands for a principled, lawful, and bipartisan effort to address domestic terrorism across every state in the nation.
