Utah officials say suspect Tyler Robinson, 22, had become increasingly political in recent years.
At a recent family dinner, Robinson reportedly spoke about Charlie Kirk’s upcoming visit to Utah Valley University, saying Kirk was “full of hate and spreading hate.”
According to Gov. Spencer Cox, investigators discovered bizarre inscriptions on bullet casings tied to Robinson:
• Fired casing: “notices bulges OWO what’s this?”
• Unfired casing: “hey fascist! catch!” with arrows etched into it

• Unfired casing: “oh bella ciao bella ciao bella ciao ciao ciao” (lyrics from an anti-fascist song)
• Fired casing: “if you read this you are gay lmao”
Officials say Robinson openly admitted disliking Kirk’s viewpoints and saw him as a symbol of “hate.”
