Suspected killer in Charlie Kirk shooting to make first court appearance

Tyler Robinson, 22, is set to make his first court appearance virtually, where he will be formally charged, including with aggravated murder, for the fatal shooting of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. Held in a special unit at Utah County Jail, Robinson's electronic devices have been seized by the FBI, though federal charges have not yet been announced. Governor Spencer Cox supports the death penalty for the crime, while Robinson's roommate expressed shock over the incident. Authorities will hold a press conference in Provo, Utah, to discuss further details of the investigation.
