Tyler Robinson has not confessed to his crime of shooting Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University to the police but he reportedly admitted it at a group chat, The Washington Post reported. “Hey guys, I have bad news for you all. It was me at UVU yesterday. im sorry for all of this,” Tyler apparently posted on Discord, the report said. The message was sent from Robinson’s account to a small group of online friend Thursday night, about two hours before he was taken into custody. Discord also provided a copy of the message to authorities and told the Post that it is providing the FBI and local authorities with information about Robinson’s online activities to help their investigation.

DNA match, new evidence in the Charlie Kirk assassination case

Tyler Robinson is currently being held at the Utah County Jail on special watch to determine whether he is a risk to himself or others. He is set to appear virtually for his first court appearance on Tuesday. FBI director Kash Patel made some revelations about the investigation and said FBI found a screwdriver on the rooftop from where the bullet was apparently shot and a towel in which the gun was wrapped. The DNA samples on the towel matched with Robinson, the FBI director said. “I can report today that the DNA hits from the towel that was wrapped around the firearm and the DNA on the screwdriver are positively processed for the suspect in custody,” Patel said.Patel also confirmed that Robinson’s family members collectively told the law enforcement that Robinson was influenced by left-wing ideologies. There was a chilling note before the shooting was carried out in which Robinson told someone that he had an opportunity to take out Charlie Kirk and he was going to do it. Patel said he can’t speak on ideologies but the fact is that Tyler did what he did because of his hatred for what Charlie stood for. The written note was destroyed, Patel said, adding that they found forensic evidence to show what that note was.
