Tyler Robinson's Attorneys Argue Against the Death Penalty in Filing
Defense attorneys say prosecutors failed to show Robinson knowingly endangered anyone beyond Charlie Kirk, which would remove capital punishment as an option.
- Attorneys for Tyler Robinson filed a motion urging a Utah judge to strike the sole aggravating factor that makes him eligible for the death penalty in the Charlie Kirk murder case.
- Prosecutors allege Robinson fatally shot Kirk on Sept. 10, 2025, at Utah Valley University during a Turning Point USA event before a crowd of more than 2,000 people.
- Defense attorneys contend the.30-06 Mauser bullet fired from a rooftop traveled above the assembled crowd rather than through it, proving Robinson targeted Kirk alone.
- Judge Tony Graf Jr. is scheduled to rule on the motion by Sept. 1; if granted, prosecutors would lose the ability to seek the death penalty, though Robinson would still face aggravated murder charges.
- The defense also disputes claims the attack was motivated by Kirk's political expression and argues prosecutors are improperly broadening Utah's interpretation of aggravating factors using cases from other states.
