FBI says it has found DNA match between crime scene evidence and alleged Charlie Kirk assassin

FBI Director Kash Patel says investigators have found DNA evidence linking alleged Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson to the scene of last week's shooting.

Patel made the statement during a Monday morning appearance on "Fox & Friends," saying the suspect's DNA was found on a screwdriver as well as a towel that was wrapped around the firearm believed to have been used in the shooting.

"I can report today that the DNA hits from the towel that was wrapped around the firearm and the DNA on the screwdriver are positively processed for the suspect in custody," Patel said.

Authorities say Robinson jumped off of a roof before fleeing Utah Valley University's campus moments after the shooting. They say he then ran through a patch of woods into a nearby neighborhood, leaving the towel-wrapped firearm in the woods.

Robinson is currently under "special watch" with authorities in Utah. Police say he has not been cooperating during interviews.

When he jumped of the roof, didn’t he grab the railing to stay himself?

Epstein Robinson didn't kill himself.

Police say he has not been cooperating during interviews.

Apparently, he has competent legal counsel.

That’s where he might have cut his hand, leaving the DNA that the FBI found on the towel that was wrapped around the gun

Just curious, but has anyone heard about a GoFundMe yet for this POS?

I’m wondering if they finally realized that doing things like that can have huge consequences for whoever does it or donates to it.

No GoFundMe I know of.....I doubt even they would facilitate such an absolute abomination.

He moved to a lower roof or ledge, in order to shorten the distance to the ground. He dropped his backpack and then jumped & rolled which breaks the fall, scooped up his backpack and started walking towards the woods he had identified as his escape route he had picked from previous visits to the site.

BTW, he changed his cloths while on the rooftop, so it has been reported.

I am not a hunter or familiar with the Mauser firearm but; we all saw the Kirk shooting suspect jump off the roof..Look closely he has no rifle in his hands when he jumped. How did the rifle get into the “woods wrapped in a blanket”.

Every last one of them should be in prison. They knew and didn’t report it or try to stop it.

I saw nothing but FIRE coming from her. I got the impression she would gladly pull the trigger.

Hmm, could be that him and all his butt buddies were openly discussing it on discord and other sm for weeks before and specifically posted the correct date. Neighbors said the day before, there were a lot of out of state cars at the apt. A minute after it happened, they were warned to watch what they said but too late because they were bragging too much saying they did it. Then there was his text to his bunnykins to go get the weapon he’d left in the woods. LE and half the internet have the names even though many sites were being taken down. But, hey, guess you’re believing that lying governor.

Guess you haven’t seen their sm in the weeks prior. Maybe ask why the neighbors have reported there were lots of out of state cars at the apt. the day prior.

There has to be fingerprints on the stair railing. How does he go up the steps with a stiff leg without touching the railing, especially in a timely manner. I am convinced the limping person, dressed alike, walking in the neighborhood was not the shooter, he was taking the gun to an already in place assassin.

How many here have not bothered to keep up with the evidence shown clearly all over. Did you not see what was in his hand about 4 steps from where he landed? He had a black towel that was flapping around a long straight item just as he texted his furry sweetie it would be. Did you not see him limping down the street that was very likely the weapon down his pants? Naw, it must have been his goofy self practicing to walk like a peg legged pirate.
