Charlie Kirk’s assassin, Tyler Robinson, is being held under “special watch” inside the Utah County Jail, according to reports.
Robinson is awaiting formal charges for Kirk’s murder last Wednesday.
The Utah County Sheriff’s Office told TMZ on Saturday that Robinson, 22, will be held under “special watch” pending a mental health evaluation.
The evaluation seeks to determine if he is a danger to himself or to others.
Obviously, there are other reasons to keep Robinson under special watch to ensure that no one else has the opportunity to make sure that he takes his side of the story to the grave.
According to sources familiar with the investigation, Robinson told his father that he would rather kill himself than be handed over to the police.
He made the confession when confronted by his family following the shooting.
Everyone has a vested interest in Robinson remaining alive and being forced to testify and divulge his motive in killing Kirk in such a horrific way.
Police have Robinson under surveillance 24 hours a day via security cameras that are positioned in the special housing unit.
It’s likely that prison guards are periodically checking in on Robinson as well to ensure he’s still alive.
Robinson will be charged this week, likely with aggravated murder, felony discharge of a firearm causing serious bodily injury, and obstruction of justice.
Aggravated murder is the most important charge that will be filed against Robinson, as it carries the death penalty as a possible sentence.
Utah Governor Spencer Cox mentioned the death penalty in his initial statements on Kirk’s assassination.
Robinson is alleged to have killed Kirk during an appearance at Utah Valley University.
When he was shot, Kirk was taking questions in front of a crowd of hundreds of students and fans.
Kirk was answering a question about transgender mass shooters during his “Prove Me Wrong” segment when a shot rang out.
He was shot in the neck by the gunman’s bullet.
The bleeding was instant and profuse, and this horrifying incident was extremely traumatic for all in attendance.
Of course, this tragedy has been traumatic for the entire nation, as radical leftists have been openly celebrating Kirk’s death.
Some are even calling for more violence against conservatives, including Kirk’s widow, Erika, and his two young children.
Kirk’s assassination could very well be a turning point for the United States.
His death shocked Americans of all political persuasions, and the reaction of the far left further ingrained that shock and horror.
Kirk had been working for his whole life to effect a massive shift in the culture.
He may have succeeded at that goal, albeit at the cost of his own life.
Already, thousands of young Americans are rallying to Turning Point USA’s banners.
Kirk’s ideas and vision will live on stronger than ever because of his martyrdom, and Robinson will face justice, likely the death penalty, if Utah’s leadership has anything to do with it.
