Bullet-Point Summary of the Shawn Ryan Show Interview with Brian Harpool
(Head of Charlie Kirk’s security detail on the day he was assassinated – Sept 10, 2025)New /
Previously Unreported Information RevealedUVU Police Chief Long explicitly told Harpool on Monday (2 days before the event): “I got you covered” regarding student roof access on the Sorenson Center directly in front of the stage. Roof was never secured; shooter used that exact building.
Text message screenshot exists showing Harpool asking for roof control or his own man posted → Chief Long replied “I got you covered.” Harpool is willing to release it.
No drones were used despite Orem PD having a professional drone unit and a mutual-aid agreement with UVU PD. UVU never requested them.
Event location was forced by UVU – only permitted spot on campus; no other options given despite 180° elevated exposure.
Security team had 12–13 men (upped from normal 8–9) because of general heightened risk; still more manpower than the 6 campus officers assigned.
Shooter’s vantage point was an extremely narrow “loophole” (≈7–10 ft wide); 3 m left or right = no shot. Harpool questions whether Tyler Robinson found it by pure luck in seconds or had rehearsed it.
Bullet struck vertebrae, shattered C-spine, fragmented – no exit wound (explains lack of exit and why no intact bullet was recovered).
Autopsy was performed (contrary to online claims). Harpool personally pushed for immediate autopsy at hospital with VP on the phone.
Crime scene was repaved extraordinarily fast – Harpool repeatedly asked why; suggests FOIA the university for the work-order timeline.
Security team never received any specific intel about Israel/Mossad threats to Charlie Kirk despite online rumors.
No hand/arm signals were used by the detail the day of the shooting (debunks “stand-down” conspiracy).
Key Timeline & Tactical DetailsAdvance work began ~2 weeks prior; team physically built all barricades, tape lines, vehicle barricades themselves.
Concentric-ring setup with plain-clothes crowd spotters actively hunting pre-incident indicators.
Immediate response: ~5 seconds to cover Charlie, ~15–16 seconds to initial wound packing and decision to exfil.
Exfil: Car prepped instantly (doors open), Charlie carried/dragged into SUV; door never closed; Harpool rode with butt out the open door applying direct pressure while teammate held him in at 80–100 mph.
~36 ft of gauze + multiple hemostatic 4×4s packed into neck wound en route.
Hospital: Team arrived covered in blood, wheeled Charlie in themselves, Harpool cut shirt off in trauma bay, then stood guard outside the room.
Major Conspiracy Theories Directly Debunked by Harpool
Explosive microphone / projectile: No flash, no char, no burn marks on shirt or skin.
Hand signals / stand-down: No tactical hand signals used; only casual gestures.
Hidden trap door / tunnel: Never existed.
Inside job (security team or Turning Point): “To my death – no.”
No autopsy: Confirmed done; Harpool demanded it immediately.
SD card deletion / hidden camera: Video team (not security) pulled cards; all handed to FBI.
Harpool’s Remaining Unanswered QuestionsExact timeline of when shooter accessed the roof and how he immediately found the one narrow firing loophole.
Shooter’s phone / tower records, Google Earth history, coworkers, possible accomplices.
Why crime scene was repaved within days (FOIA the university).
Why no public release of basic forensic facts (bullet path, vertebrae strike, fragmentation) that would kill most conspiracy theories overnight.
Tone & Takeaway from HarpoolDeep frustration at sensationalized lies hurting his men and their families (doxxing, stolen credit cards, etc.).
Believes more transparency from FBI/UVU would have prevented 95% of the conspiracy ecosystem.
“The truth is like a lion – set it free and it will defend itself.”
Still grieving; broke down multiple times describing
Charlie’s wound and Erica Kirk’s screams.
In short: A highly professional team did everything within legal and contractual limits, was explicitly assured rooftop coverage that never materialized, responded heroically, and is now being destroyed online while institutions hide behind “jury contamination” excuses.
Thank you and nifty, for your efforts.
Actually I had just started to listen to this after I posted this, and am only to about 35 minutes into it.
But I know I couldn’t have provided as detailed a synopsis.
I’m going to finish watching it,
Not cuz I don’t trust chat gp AI,
just that I don’t trust chat bot AI /-)
It’s probably accurate,
Trust but verify ya know ?
But I DO appreciate you two putting out the effort to post what you have.
Thank you.
One more thing... The “shot” was made at 141-143 yards - not 200 yards, or whatever silly measure was reported.
Of course, the conspiracy crowd and anyone in the media could pull up Google Maps and calculate the same. But 200 yards make the incident seem more incredible.
What you give me here is what any judge would dismiss as heresay.
Because it’s nothing but talk.
And it doesn’t clarify any of the critical questions:
1. the true bullet trajectory
2. NO HUMAN BONE, vertebral or not, can stop a 30.06 round
3. NO HUMAN BONE can change the vector of a 30.06 round by 90 degrees
4. no mention of the camera above and behind Charlie as a device that fired a .22 long rifle bullet
Thank you very much for the bullet point summary at Reply #11

How many times will this need to happen before the internal assets of the deep state are purged and brought to justice? Incompetence is often used as a fig leaf for higher-ups. This loophole must be closed and the higher-ups, responsible for direct overight, purged.
