Letter of Charlie Kirk murder suspect revealed in court – Wazir
Tyler Robinson wrote to his partner about a plan to murder the conservative activist, prosecutors say
Utah prosecutors presented in court a letter they said contained Tyler Robinson’s confession to the murder of US conservative activist and organizer Charlie Kirk.
Kirk, a co-founder of the nonprofit Turning Point USA, was killed by a sniper’s bullet while delivering a speech at Utah Valley University in September 2025. Robinson, who is charged with the murder, has not entered a plea.
At a hearing on Thursday, prosecutors showed a screenshot of a note allegedly written by Robinson to his roommate and romantic partner, Lance Twiggs, who also went by the name Luna.
“Luna, If you are reading this per my text, then I am so sorry. I left the house this morning on a mission and sent an auto-text. I’m likely dead or facing a lengthy prison sentence,” the note read.
The note continued: “I had the opportunity to take out Charlie Kirk, and I took it… I wish we could have lived in a world where this was not necessary.”
Prosecutors also showed text messages allegedly exchanged between Robinson and Twiggs immediately after the murder.
“you werent the one who did it right????” Twiggs asked suspect, to which he replied, “I am, I’m sorry.”
In video testimony played in court, Twiggs alleged that Robinson had admitted to killing Kirk and “said he wishes he hadn’t done it.”
According to family members and media reports, Robinson became radicalized and mentioned Kirk in conversations before the shooting. The unfired rounds recovered from the rifle reportedly bore inscriptions referencing internet memes and the phrase “Hey, fascist! Catch!”
Kirk’s murder prompted debate over incitement and heated political rhetoric amid an upswing in attacks on politicians and other public figures in the US. President Donald Trump blamed “radical left lunatics” for the activist’s death, while his opponents argued that Trump himself had contributed to the toxic political climate.
Kirk’s widow, Erika, has called for greater transparency regarding evidence presented in the case. Her lawyer, Jeffrey Neiman, said the family had been denied “their ability to meaningfully observe the preliminary hearing.”
