Charlie Kirk family demands judge reveal hidden evidence from accused assassin's hearing

Judge Tony Graf Jr. ordered prosecutors to redact evidence as the defense argued public release could threaten Tyler Robinson’s right to a fair trial.

  • A week-long evidence hearing continues through Friday as Judge Tony Graf determines if there is sufficient evidence to proceed to trial against Tyler Robinson, who is accused of killing Charlie Kirk.
  • Prosecutors allege Robinson shot Kirk, the founder of Turning Point USA, during an event at Utah Valley University last September in front of thousands of attendees.
  • During Wednesday's hearing, prosecutors called state investigator Brian Davis to testify while seeking to enter a recorded interview with Robinson's former roommate and text messages between the two.
  • Attorney Jeffrey Neiman, representing the Kirk family, argued that admitting evidence without public transparency creates distrust, while defense attorneys objected to broadcasting that might jeopardize Robinson's fair trial rights.
  • Judge Tony Graf ruled that prosecutors must redact portions of the disputed evidence before it can be publicized, with the team planning to make these edits before court resumes on Thursday.
