The suspect in Charlie Kirk's assassination has been identified as Tyler Robinson, a 22-year-old Utah resident.
Law enforcement sources told Daily Mail that Robinson was taken into custody as the alleged assassin who killed Kirk at a rally at Utah Valley University in Utah on Wednesday.
The alleged killer confessed to his father Matt, who is a a 27-year veteran of the Washington County Sheriff's Department, sources told Daily Mail. His father then contacted authorities and secured his son before he could be taken into custody.
His mother, Amber Robinson, works for Intermountain Support Coordination Services, a company contracted by the state of Utah to help disabled people receive care.
Robinson was a student at Utah State University on a scholarship, insiders confirmed to Daily Mail.
The family's social media profiles show Robinson, who has two younger brothers, often enjoying family vacations and sharing smiling selfies, including some celebrating the alleged killer getting into college.
Robinson was taken into custody around 11pm local time in southern Utah on Thursday night. He lives in a $600,000 six-bedroom home in Washington, Utah - about 260 miles south of Kirk's assassination in Orem.
Officials have yet to confirm a motive to the assassination.
Authorities said at a press conference on Thursday night that Robinson will face the death penalty if convicted.

Now get intel on his professors, friends, student associations, etc.
Not a problem. I could do that at 16
You are weak. How much money will it take from YOUR pocket to keep him alive. My pocket? Death is called for, by all that is Holy. As the betrayer of Jesus was hung from a tree and gutted, so should he.
I know, people say he hung himself, but how do you explain his disembowelment? He was a witness to a crime he helped set in motion. Those types often are erased publicly.
Easy-peasy.
Family member I’d him. He’s the shooter.

Awesome that you had your kids get scuba certified.../h
Wonderful context. Thank you.
Will have to check it out, for sure.
Wow, 600 yards is 1/3 of a mile! Impressive!!
Gotta be prepared for anything these days. But my guns are not dangerous as none of them has the very lethal barrel shroud. And no 50 caliber AR-15 fully semi-automatics with high magazine clips, either.

The weapon is a zero issue. Anyone can get a weapon. As it should be. The mind of the person that does not respect another person’s life is the problem, and yes, I’d want to know who influenced him and especially if his problems with society came on suddenly.
I'm aware of McVeigh's desire. For every person who requests execution, there are many, many more who do anything they can to avoid execution. If execution was a more desirable outcome than life without parole, why can LE use avoiding execution as a carrot in negotiations?
15 years previous law enforcement and an armorer. Very well versed on the fine arts of boom-booms.
Thank you for the correction. Thought it was same school.
Now, I have to wonder about how the gun got on the roof a bit more. How he got roof access.
F**k off
Did the shooter know that Charlie wore body armor? I’ve heard that he hit an armor plate, and a piece of the spalled bullet cut Charlie’s carotid artery.
The hate for Patel and Bondi on this site is a real thing. They is a very large group that post about it all the time.
And if you’re hitting at 100, you’re essentially good to about 300 with no special knowledge required. Get off a clean shot, and physics takes over.
