Tyler Robinson, charged in the brutal killing of Charlie Kirk, wasn’t identified or arrested for his alleged crime until 2 days after the shooting.

But information is now coming out that he had a run-in with Police on the very same day of the deadly attack on the Turning Point founder.

In fact, the Commissioner of the Utah Department of Public Safety has disclosed Robinson had some sort of contact with an Officer actually on or near the very college campus where Charlie Kirk was killed earlier in the day.

That encounter is now reported to have happened just a few hours after the shooting.

Near the spot Robinson called his “drop location” in text messages — where the alleged murder weapon was reportedly found — the suspect was presumably hindered from retrieving the gun by some sort of ‘contact’ with Police.

Even though we’re currently sitting at more than 2 weeks since that fateful day, authorities are not revealing the actual details of that interaction.

The moment of ‘contact’ we’re only now finding out about happened approximately 6 hours after Charlie Kirk was shot according to this breaking news report from Fox News:

The top official with Utah’s Department of Public Safety went on the record today concerning that interaction.

And although he confirmed that Tyler Robinson made some sort of contact with an Officer, he seemed to indicate the interaction wasn’t known until “very recently”, as it was reported earlier today by Fox News:

Tyler Robinson, the 22-year-old accused of assassinating Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University earlier this month, “made contact” with a police officer near where investigators recovered the alleged murder weapon wrapped in a towel in the woods at the edge of campus, according to two law enforcement sources.

Beau Mason, commissioner of the Utah Department of Public Safety, confirmed to Fox News that Robinson circled back to the campus to retrieve the rifle.

“We have been able to confirm very recently that he did return to that campus and did make contact with an officer,” Mason said. “The contents of that interaction we’re not prepared to reveal right now. That’s part of the investigation and part of gathering more information.”

Mason said the interaction happened on Sept. 10, much later in the evening, after a sniper’s bullet struck Kirk in the neck as he was engaging the audience during a speaking event sponsored by the UVU chapter of his organization in Orem, Utah.

Mason added that investigators have been able to track Robinson’s movements to local businesses and other places in and around the area.

“We know he visited a restaurant eatery, or he made a purchase for food, just kind of a normal interaction,” Mason said.

I hate to state the obvious.

But why on earth did it take nearly two weeks to confirm that Charlie Kirk’s suspected assassin had some sort of contact with an Officer within the vicinity of the shooting only hours after the event occurred?

And on top of that — why aren’t the details being divulged to the public?

That doesn’t really make a lot of sense, considering how many details HAVE been shared up to this point.

This sudden partial disclosure TWO WEEKS AFTER THE FACT is only going to fan the flames of doubt that we’re getting the real story, especially when some of the story is openly being omitted!

Is there body camera footage of that interaction?

Audio?

Was a report even filed?

Shockingly, while researching those very questions, I did stumble upon body camera footage of the suspected Charlie Kirk assassin!

While this is not from the interaction being reported from the day of the killing, it is definitely Tyler Robinson.

He and his brother were involved in a wreck back in 2022, and a few days ago that body camera footage surfaced.

While this doesn’t answer the questions hanging in the air of the secretive interaction he apparently had with at least one Police Officer on the day of the killing…

It DOES highlight the likelihood that there IS body cam footage out there of that interaction as well!

This 2022 body cam footage — which is incredibly intriguing if for no other reason than it gives us a good real-world look at Tyler Robinson interacting with Police in the not-so-distant past — was posted on YouTube by the folks at the New York Post:

As intriguing as that interaction is, what I really want to see is the body cam footage from the day of the shooting.

There’s a strong chance that video exists, and if so…

Why wouldn’t it be released by now?

Hopefully that information will be released soon.

But the official story seems to be that the interaction we are just learning about is the only reason the alleged murder weapon was ever found, according to The Daily Mail:

That brief encounter appears to have thwarted an attempt by the main suspect to collect the firearm used to kill Kirk.

No further details of the ‘contact’ were shared and its unclear if the officers saw Robinson, or realized how close they were to the suspect.

Prosecutors say that after gunning down Kirk he confessed to the killing in a message to his transgender partner.

He is alleged to have got in contact with his partner via text message, saying that he killed Kirk because he ‘had enough of his hatred.’

Robinson fled the scene and traveled some 250 miles south to his home in St. George, Utah, eluding capture for nearly two full days.

Charging documents say that his mother had seen the photo shared by authorities and immediately thought they looked like her son.

After a phone call between the two eventually happened, Robinson laid out plans to commit suicide, his parents said they were able to convince him to meet them.

During that discussion, Robinson is said to have implied he was the shooter and said he didn’t want to go to jail so wished instead to take his own life.

He appeared in court in an anti-suicide vest and is facing seven counts, including a capital murder charge, over the killing of Kirk.

As seems inevitable of late, the plausibility of both a wider conspiracy and coverup is not outside the realm of reason.

The more we learn, the more those things seem more possible in this case — even likely.

While I understand the realities of crossing all the proverbial t’s and dotting all the i’s in an investigation of this magnitude, does it really take two weeks to give the American people answers on something like this?

The death of Charlie Kirk has rocked the nation, conservatives in particular, and Christians — in a way that I still don’t think we fully comprehend yet.

And it will do no good for law enforcement to be perceived as concealing or holding back the truth from the public on this one.

In many ways, this is an ongoing story still in the developing stages — though it SHOULDN’T be.

This may not have all the baggage of something like the Epstein Files, but in the current political climate it should come without saying that TRANSPARENCY is the ONLY currency the American people are going to accept right now.

The good, the bad, and the ugly — just give us the TRUTH, and we can start rebuilding some sort of confidence in the American legal system again.

Until then, when it takes weeks to pull a single thread just to get tidbits of a story that should have already been divulged… mistrust is going to continue to run high.

Just give us the truth.

Trust us — we might not always LIKE it.

But we can handle the truth.
