Newly released search warrants in the case against Tyler Robinson, the Utah man accused of assassinating conservative icon Charlie Kirk in September, revealed investigators collected DNA and cellphone data placing him at the scene of the alleged shooting.
Investigators obtained DNA from “fingerprints and a smeared palm print in the vicinity of the northeast corner rooftop edge of the Losee Center building where Robinson dropped off the rooftop to the ground below,” along with cellphone data showing Robinson’s location on Sept. 10, 2025, according to East Idaho News.
Additionally, a Google Maps route found on Robinson’s phone allegedly routed to an area near the Utah Valley University campus, the outlet reported.
The warrants also included a note Robinson allegedly left for his roommate, whom he was romantically involved with, shortly before the alleged assassination.
“Luna, if you are reading this per my text, then I am so sorry,” the note reportedly said. “I left the house this morning on a mission, and set an auto text.
“I am likely dead, or facing a lengthy prison sentence. I had the opportunity to take out Charlie Kirk, and I took it.
“I don’t know if i will/have succeeded, but I had hoped to make it home to you. I wish we could have lived in a world where this did not feel necessary. I wish I could have stayed for you and lived our lives together.
“I lack the words to express how much I love you, and how very much you mean to me. Please try and find joy in this life. I love you, always, -Tyler,” the letter continued, according to the outlet.
Robinson is charged with aggravated murder, among other counts, in the shooting of Kirk while Kirk was speaking at a Turning Point USA event on UVU’s campus last year.
Robinson has since pleaded not guilty to all charges, and prosecutors have vowed to seek the death penalty in the case.
