Tyler Robinson’s legal team wants to boot Utah prosecutors off the Charlie Kirk murder case because one of their relatives was in the crowd at the time of the deadly shooting, a newly unsealed transcript has revealed.
The details of prosecutors’ alleged conflict of interest were first raised during a closed-door hearing on Oct. 24 — but the transcript from the hearing was only made public on Monday.
“The Utah County Attorneys have advised us that a family member of one of the attorneys was present at the incident at which Mr. Kirk was shot and killed,” defense attorney Richard Novak told Judge Tony Graf during the October hearing.
The defense team was informed by prosecutors that the relative “was within 85 feet of Mr. Kirk when he was killed; had to flee; that the Utah County Attorney’s Office was all advised of this; that law enforcement were actually deployed to the area with her safety and status in mind,” Novak said.
The defense attorney added that they would be filing a motion to disqualify the office because of the alleged conflict of interest. There are six prosecutors on Robinson’s case and the name of the prosecutor in question was redacted in court papers.
The alleged conflict of interest issue was first made public in other court docs on Dec. 17. Graf has not yet ruled on the issue.

“...Take the piggy out an shoot him....”

It’s gotta be real slow and painful. The stuff that bleeding-heart libs can be outraged over as “cruel and unusual”. I don’t care.... Just get rid of this POS.
“The details of prosecutors’ alleged conflict of interest”...
Not sure that’s a conflict of interest for the prosecutors. lol
The Utah prosecutor, like all prosecutors, is biased in favor of the law and biased against murder. Of course the prosecutor is biased. That is the definition of the job.
All this man wants is a way for freedom.
I don’t care what the degenerate punk wants.
He’s guilty. Kill him. Death by firing squad is good. Move on.
Jesus was crucified between 2 bad guys. This man in the Charlie Kirk saga can choose to way of the bad guy on the left...or the bad guy on the right.
He is already setting up an appeal with this BS.
Yes. We want to but a corrections officer will have the pleasure someday.
Did you know Sean Hannity’s mother Lillian Hannity was a prison guard? Father was a family court and probation officer.
