Read the text messages between Charlie Kirk accused and roommate

Tyler Robinson, the man accused of fatally shooting conservative commentator Charlie Kirk, appeared in court via video link as new details emerged from court documents. Prosecutors revealed that Robinson allegedly texted his roommate shortly after the shooting, discussing his motives and actions. The roommate, described as a biological male transitioning to female and in a romantic relationship with Robinson, provided investigators with a series of text messages exchanged on the day of the incident. The messages, which were presented in court, included Robinson’s admission to the crime and his plans to retrieve a rifle left at a drop point. Robinson also expressed concern about leaving evidence and his father’s reaction to losing the rifle. The shooting occurred last Wednesday at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah, and has since sparked intense debate about the political divide in the United States. Authorities initially detained another individual before focusing on Robinson, who later indicated his intention to turn himself in. The case continues to unfold as investigators piece together the events leading up to the shooting.
