Mass confusion on suspect of Kirk’s killing. Is one in custody , or not?
Fox/ Grok ^ | 9/10/2025 | Ruiz/Sabiz

Posted on 09/10/2025 5:25:09 PM PDT by Phoenix8

Utah authorities questioned and released a person of interest in the shooting of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk Wednesday afternoon, according to state and federal officials. Kirk, a 31-year-old father of two, died from his injuries.

"The subject for the horrific shooting today that took the life of Charlie Kirk is now in custody," FBI Director Kash Patel tweeted Wednesday. "Thank you to the local and state authorities in Utah for your partnership with @fbi."

Earlier, he wrote that the "subject" was in custody, and Republican Utah Gov. Spencer Cox referred to a "person of interest in custody."

What was the FBI doing there? Hope we don’t discover that the shooter was well known to them.>>> Probably on the payroll.

Any bets on the real shooter being a tranny?>>> I’ll take a $100.00 that it was a FBI.

I am not an Israel booster, at all, but those here blaming them - with zero evidence whatsoever - are moonbat goons of the worst kind.

Make FR great again and just leave. Seriously.

Some of the pellet rifle have a pellet which goes faster than sound. A supersonic pellet will issue a crack when fired. Some air rifles have muzzles on them.
There are “big bore” air rifles which can take down hogs and deer.

Hope they catch all of the killers, and execute them all at once.

>> If so the perp could already be out of the country.

If so, Charlie Kirk’s blood is on the hands of the entire californicated shit state of Utah, and the incompetent faggots that pretend they are “law enforcement” there.

That’s actually a pretty common configuration today. Sound suppression on an air rifle is unregulated (legal).
The suppressors for air rifles are not designed for the pressures of regular firearms.>>> I have a scope on my pellet gun that i can mount a shoulder stock.

This kind of deliberate distraction has the appearance of planning and coordination.

Well planned, corrdinated, professional.

THIS. And the video of the innocent white girl murdered by the blaKKK pig. Watch — understand — act.

Sorry but 200 yards, even with bad glass or no glass, is not difficult at all.

Looks like the shooter still missed if aiming center mass or head.

It was the timing of THAT question at THAT time. I wonder if there is film of the questioner which FBI could follow up on? Just in case it is more than coincidence.

Speculating it was a 6mm, 6.8mm or 7,62mm round. Without knowing what type armor he had.... ricochet seems unlikely. Spalling would occur from a hit that mushroomed a round. It wouldn’t take a very large piece of the bullet jacket slicing the carotid to be life-threatening.

He wasn’t aiming at his neck knucklehead. He was aiming for the head and missed a stationary target.

No one aims for the neck

“You will be desensitized,” “at the very least censor the brutality.”

.

Desensitization?

Not a chance.

Education.

The progs are getting crazy brave.

In the end they will be found to just be crazy.

Censoring THEIR brutality plays right into their hands.

I will not let their BS and screaming accusations silence me, their lawfare is merely grounds for suing, all of which should be 20 mill or higher.

It’s called “defunding” and the prog should know alllll about it.

High powered rifle. 200 yards. It was a pro. How else could he get away? Probably had help in the escape.

Not really. Any deer hunter could make that shot with ease.
