1:56Now PlayingTyler Robinson, a 22-year-old Utah local, confessed Friday morning to fatally shooting conservative activist Charlie Kirk, officials said. Robinson was turned in after his father recognized him in photos released by the FBI and his son admitted he was the gunman. Robinson’s father asked him to turn himself in, but his son replied that he would rather kill himself. The father then convinced his son to speak with their youth minister, who called the FBI, and agents later took Robinson into custody.
Only about 2 months earlier in July, Robinson’s father painted a much different picture of family life with his son on social media- where he posted a video reel showing highlights from their Mexico trip together, in which Tyler was pictured happily showing off a fish he caught.
Another video going viral reveals another proud moment for Tyler - this time in a video posted by his mother, in which he announces he had received a college scholarship. In a statement, Utah State University – which is a different school from where the shooting took place– confirmed the suspect had "briefly attended the University for one semester in 2021."
Other pictures of the suspected killer that have emerged also feel almost chillingly normal … sharing a meal with his dad … grinning while riding in what appears to be a small plane … and seemingly enjoying a happy family life.
The only photos which really stand out include one in which he appears to be dressed for Halloween in a Trump costume, and a number of others that point to an interest in various types of weapons.
