Netflix says neck-injury post wasn't about Charlie Kirk, cites The Gentlemen plot

Netflix says its UK & Ireland X post about a character nearly suffering a 'neck injury' was not a reference to Charlie Kirk's assassination anniversary, stating it referenced a plot point from The Gentlemen. The post drew backlash from some conservatives who alleged mockery, while Netflix officers told Fox News Digital the claims were ludicrous. The post remained viewable as universities prepared Kirkiversary events ahead of the one-year anniversary of Kirk's death.

Utah judge sends Charlie Kirk shooting case to trial with death penalty on the table

A Utah judge ruled Tyler Robinson will stand trial on seven charges in the fatal shooting of Charlie Kirk at a Turning Point USA event, keeping the option of the death penalty. The court found probable cause for the victim-targeting aggravator, and Robinson pleaded not guilty at arraignment as prosecutors move toward a full trial; charges include aggravated murder, a firearm discharge causing serious bodily injury, two counts of obstruction of justice, two counts of witness tampering, and a misdemeanor for committing a violent offense in the presence of a child. A status conference is set for Oct. 23, and cameras will remain in the courtroom under decorum rules as Kirk’s family pushes for swift justice.

Death penalty on the table as Kirk shooting suspect pleads not guilty

A 23-year-old Utah man, Tyler Robinson, pleaded not guilty to aggravated murder and six related charges in the September 2025 shooting of conservative activist Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University, with a judge allowing prosecutors to pursue the death penalty based on aggravating factors such as firing into a crowd. Prosecutors presented DNA on the weapon, admissions, a taped interview from his roommate and other evidence, while the defense challenged the procedures and sought to block the death penalty. Kirk's widow and his parents attended the hearing, and a trial date is expected to be set after further proceedings, with the next court date on October 23.
