Text Trails and Regret Surface in Charlie Kirk Shooting Preliminary Hearing

In a Utah preliminary hearing for Tyler Robinson, prosecutors presented text messages showing he planned to kill Charlie Kirk for over a week and confessed after the act. A recorded interview with Robinson’s roommate Lance Twiggs described him crying and saying he wished he hadn't done it. Ballistics evidence was inconclusive, and prosecutors seek a possible victim-enhancement for political targeting; the court scheduled further briefs and arguments ahead of a potential trial.
