Eerily dressed Tyler Robinson seen in newly released police bodycam 3 years before Charlie Kirk’s assassination

The recently released police bodycam footage reveals Tyler Robinson’s demeanor after a minor car accident in Utah in 2022, which is reminiscent of his appearance while on the run after allegedly shooting conservative activist Charlie Kirk three years later.

In the video obtained by Scripps News, a 19-year-old Robinson is seen calmly talking to police after crashing his silver Audi into another vehicle at an intersection in St. George, Utah. He explained to police that the other driver turned in front of him, causing the collision. Robinson, wearing a gray shirt, sunglasses, and a hat, was accompanied by his brother in the car, and thankfully, no one was injured in the accident.

Despite the luxury car sustaining damage, both drivers involved in the crash were not issued any citations. Robinson’s mother even arrived at the scene with insurance forms to handle the aftermath of the accident.

Fast forward to three years later, Robinson, now 22, stands accused of fatally shooting Charlie Kirk during an event at Utah Valley University. The horrifying incident led to a massive manhunt for the assailant, who was eventually apprehended by authorities with the help of his own father.

The alleged shooter, described as having “leftist ideology” and being “radicalized” online, faces charges of aggravated murder and other offenses. President Trump, a close friend of Kirk, has publicly supported the death penalty for Robinson, who could potentially face execution by firing squad in Utah, one of the five states that still utilize this method of capital punishment.

A text chain revealed in Robinson’s indictment indicates that he had been planning the assassination for over a week, showcasing the chilling premeditation behind the tragic event.
