Charlie Kirk shooting suspect Tyler Robinson allegedly confessed to assassination online before arrest: ‘It was me’

Tyler Robinson apparently confessed to killing conservative icon Charlie Kirk in an online message to friends the day after the public assassination.

“Hey guys, I have bad news for you all,” reads a chat message purportedly sent by Robinson, 22, through online community Discord, according to the Washington Post.

“It was me at UVU yesterday. i’m sorry for all of this,” the missive concluded.

The message was sent Thursday night, around two hours before Robinson was apprehended, from an account on the platform tied to the suspect.

A screenshot of the conversation was obtained by the outlet through an anonymous member of the group and has not been independently verified by The Post.

Discord previously claimed it found “no evidence that the suspect planned this incident or promoted violence on Discord” after an internal investigation.

Robinson’s apparent confession comes as federal authorities announced Monday that they were casting a wider net into whether pro-trans, online communities or others knew about the Sept. 10 killing of the 31-year-old Turning Point USA founder.

All I care about is that this punk a*s b*tch doesn’t get life. Take New York as an example, 43 cop killers released from prison in the past 8 years alone. He gets life there will always be the possibility somewhere down the line leftists will release him.

The assassin did it for attention from that community. I wonder if he got the back slappings that he expected?

Yep, makes me think Discord has something to hide.....or somebody inside Discord is in on it.

The only thing that Robinson will be bargaining for at this point is life without parole vs. the death penalty.

“Hey guys,”

...is how he casually greets them after committing capital murder in cold blood, as though he’s just letting them know that he can’t make it to their Friday night ice cream social.

Let’s hope......you have people right here on FR arguing he didn’t have a rifle when he jumped off the building so it’s not him. 🤷

Sounds about right doesn’t it?

I’m personally a life in prison kind of guy but you make a good point. I wonder if he’ll be prosecuted at the state and federal level and the implication of that.

How much additional background noise from other leftist lunatics rushing to confess online was there to sort through?
