FBI ‘running down’ more than 20 Discord users in Kirk shooting probe: Patel

FBI is interrogating numerous individuals linked to the Discord chat with suspect Tyler Robinson amid ongoing probe into political motives behind Charlie Kirk's assassination.

  • FBI Director Kash Patel testified on Tuesday that the investigation into Charlie Kirk's assassination includes more than 20 people linked to a Discord chat with suspect Tyler Robinson.
  • This probe follows last week's killing of Kirk at Utah Valley University and grew from online messages where Robinson appeared to confess and interact with others.
  • Patel said authorities are examining everyone involved in the chat to determine if others had foreknowledge or played a role, while state officials noted ideological factors.
  • Patel highlighted that the number of individuals involved exceeds previous estimates, and the FBI is actively investigating everyone connected while working to secure all relevant digital evidence.
  • Charges against Robinson include aggravated murder, with prosecutors seeking the death penalty as investigations continue into potential accomplices and ideological motives.
