US EditionSuspected Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson's defense attorney revealed
Tyler Robinson, charged with aggravated murder in Charlie Kirk's death, is defended by Kathryn Nester, a lawyer with over 30 years' experience in capital cases.
- Tyler Robinson, 22, was assigned Kathryn Nester as his defense lawyer after being charged with the fatal shooting of Charlie Kirk during an event on a Utah college campus earlier this month.
- On Wednesday, the Utah County Commission gave full approval to Nester’s appointment, fulfilling their constitutional obligation to provide competent legal counsel for Robinson, who lacks the means to secure private representation.
- Nester has over 30 years of legal experience, including more than 60 jury trials and leading federal defender offices, making her qualified to handle Robinson's aggravated murder case with potential death penalty charges.
- Robinson appeared via video from jail in a Sept. 16 hearing, remains held without bail in special housing, and was charged with aggravated murder plus six other counts while prosecutors seek the death penalty.
- The next court hearing is set for September 29 and the appointment suggests Utah officials are preparing for a complex legal process involving capital charges.
