President Trump announced early Friday that a suspect for Charlie Kirk’s assassination was turned in by his father — with law enforcement sources telling The Post it is a 22-year-old Utah local, Tyler Robinson.
“I think, with a high degree of certainty, we have him,” Trump told “Fox & Friends” during a live interview at the cable giant’s Manhattan studio, saying he heard just minutes before his 8 a.m. interview.
“Somebody who was very close to him turned him in,” the president said, then revealing it was the suspect’s dad who relayed it through “a minister who was involved with law enforcement.”
“I hope he’s going to be found guilty, and I hope he gets the death penalty. What he did — Charlie Kirk was the finest person and he didn’t deserve this.”
Trump did not ID the suspect. However, law enforcement sources told The Post it was Robinson, who lives in Utah.

I hope you’re right, Mr. President.
I’m going to maintain a high level of skepticism as I remain hopeful that this is the guy.
Why would a father know that this son did this? Did it come out during one of their father/son talks?
For a father to turn in their son takes a great deal of courage. Pray for that family.
First question that needs to be asked.
Was he the shooter?
Second question...
Was the only shooter?
Pictures of the shooter plastered on the television might be a starting point of consideration.
The dad probably saw the photos the FBI released.
Trans?
As it did for the unibomber’s brother.
Saw the photos of the “wanted person”?
Why no pictures of the suspect?
The father probably saw all the pictures circulated and realized it was his son. Then confronted son and got a confession out of him. Apparently the brother was trying to turn him in.
Maybe the pictures released by law enforcement?
Could be that Dad's or Grandpa's rifle was missing, and the photo was a giveaway.
Apparently the father works for the local sheriff’s department. So he’s privy to the details of the investigation, and he has no choice but to turn the loser son in unless he’s willing to toss everything in his own life away.
There is a 4 chan name called Skye Valdez that posted the day before the shooting a song about Charlie dying and that something big was going to happen. It looks like they are one in the same.
