You really don't understand how the American justice system works, do you?

Charges being brought ≠ the prosecution automatically getting everything they're seeking. Originally Posted by tommy156

Multiple admissions of guilt, when, why how, this is no longer a matter of guilt, its a matter of how soon it happens.

After revealing the charges, Gray read aloud text messages he said investigators retrieved from Robinson’s partner's phone in which he allegedly confessed to the killing. Utah Governor Spencer Cox said over the weekend that Robinson's roommate was fully cooperating with investigators.

“Drop what you’re doing. Look under my keyboard,” Robinson texted his partner. Investigators revealed the note read, “I had the opportunity to take out Charlie Kirk, and I'm going to take it. After reading the note, the partner responded: "What?????????????? You’re joking,right????”

Robinson replied: "I am still ok my love, but am stuck in orem for a little while longer yet. Shouldn’t be long until I can come home, but I gotta grab my rifle still. To be honest I had hoped to keep this secret till I died of old age. I am sorry to involve you."

After the partner asked if he was the one who shot Kirk, Robinson confessed: “I am, I'm sorry," according to the indictment.

When Robinson is asked why he shot Kirk, he replied, “I had enough of his hatred. Some hate can't be negotiated out. If I am able to grab my rifle unseen, I will have left no evidence.”

He said he had been planning the shooting for "a bit over a week," according to the messages released by prosecutors.

Robinson also explained the obscure engravings found on bullet casings that were left behind at the scene.

“Remember how I was engraving bullets? The f****** messages are mostly a big meme, if I see ‘notices bulge uwu’ on fox new I might have a stroke,” he said, referring to one of the engravings.

Robinson appeared to make a joke about the rifle he allegedly used in the killing, which was a present from his father and was previously owned by his grandfather.

"[J]udging from today I’d say grandpas gun does just fine idk," he wrote, according to the indictment.

Robinson's last messages to his partner were telling them he was turning himself in, urging them not to talk to the media, and to ask for a lawyer if questioned by the police.

"You are all I worry about love," he wrote. "I’m much more worried about you."

Gray also revealed the key role Robinson's parents played in cracking the case.

It was Robinson's mother, after seeing images of the suspect on television, who first expressed concern that her son might be the killer. When she raised it with her husband, they both agreed the images resembled him. Robinson’s mother called him the day after the shooting and asked what he was doing, and Robinson told his mother that he was home, sick, and that he had also been home sick the day prior, on Sept. 10th.

MAGA guy huh?

Straight white angry MAGA...

Even if he's found guilty, it's the judge, not the prosecution that will decide the sentence.

He admitted plotting and killing Kirk.

Premeditated murder, exactly what I would demanded for Las Vegas concert shooter.




Robinson replied: "I am still ok my love, but am stuck in orem for a little while longer yet. Shouldn’t be long until I can come home, but I gotta grab my rifle still. To be honest I had hoped to keep this secret till I died of old age. I am sorry to involve you."

A blind deaf mute could convict this guy. His only hope to keep breathing might be to offer up some of the people who appeared to have foreknowledge. If Kohberger got out of the death penalty anyone can. I personally found that deal disgusting, I guess Idaho prosecutors didn’t.

Our local Red hat population just can't accept that one of their own is the perpetrator. To me it's not shocking, because not everyone believes in Christian nationalism or the smugness that was delivered by the victim.

Again...not validating any acting out or the results, but not shocked that a pundit who demonized anyone non biblical or MAGA mantras was disagreeable.

The next months will certainly play out as proof to what Robinson felt and thought. All the rest is conjecture at this point. Purple hair, septums or Trans whatever will either be proven or not. But the rhetoric today is all teal RedHat give a shit about. Originally Posted by eyecu2

Like warm milk.
The Republican Party is seeing a “Charlie Kirk effect,” with moderate Democrats and Independents switching party affiliation at breakneck speed.

Freshly emancipated former Dems told The Post they were horrified by the assassination of the 31-year-old podcaster last week — who they thought of as kind and reasonable — and further disgusted by the ghoulish celebration of his killing by many lefties.

Sheilfer Zepeda, a 31-year-old avocado farmer and software entrepreneur from California was among them.

“I’m switching parties to protest. I understand that the right also has certain character flaws, but it doesn’t culminate in sympathy for political violence,” he told The Post after seeing some Democrats’ jubilation over the killing.

Reality of this is it will probably set back rights for transgender 15 years.
