The authorities are still trying to learn more about what motivated Charlie Kirk’s fatal shootout at a college in Utah, since the family of the conservative activist is planning a memorial for his life and inheritance next week.
22 -year -old Tyler James Robinson from Washington, Utah, was arrested for suspected sedate murder and other crimes. The prosecutors take formal charges that could be submitted at the beginning of next week if it will appear to his first court files.
The investigators spoke to Robinson’s relatives and carried out a search command in the house of his family in Washington, about 240 miles (390 kilometers) southwest of the University of Utah Valley, where the shootings took place.
Here are things about killing:
What do we know about the motif?
The authorities have not provided many details about why they believe Robinson did the attack on Kirk.
The governor of Utah, Spencer Cox, said family members told the authorities that Robinson “had become more political in recent years”. They told the authorities a conversation with the dining table in which he mentioned Kirks upcoming visit to Utah Valley University, and they discussed whether the activist spread the hatred.
State records show that Robinson is registered for coordination but is not connected to a political party and is classified as inactive, which means that he has not chosen the two recent parliamentary elections. His parents are registered Republicans.
Ammunition, which was found with the weapon, was engraved with mocking, anti-fascist and meme culture messages. A ball housing had the news: “Hey, fascist! Catch!” Said Cox.
What do we know about Robinson?
He grew up around St. George in the southwestern corner of Utah between Las Vegas and natural sights such as Bryce Canyon and Zion National Parks.
Robinson became a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of the Saints of the last few days at a newborn age, which were widespread when the Mormon Church was known, said church spokesman Doug Andersen.
Robinson has two younger brothers and, according to social media posts, his parents have been married for about 25 years. The online activity of Robinson’s mother reflects an vigorous family who went on vacation to Disneyland, Hawaii, the Caribbean and Alaska.
Like many in this part of Utah, they often spent time outdoors, fishing, riding ATVS, zipper and target shooting. In a 2017 contribution, the family shows that visits a military facility and poses with assault rifles. A newborn Robinson smiles when he grabs the handles of a weighty machine gun of 0.50 caliber.

What was the effects of the assassination?
It has caused demands to be greater courtesy in the political discourse of the country, especially on social media. But many people made comments about Kirk and the shootings who brought consequences, including shots.

A conservative Internet personality, which is embedded with immigration agents in Chicago, filmed a video outside of Illinois governor JB Pritzker’s private home, in which he asked the audience to “take measures” according to Kirk’s assassination attempt. Pritzker’s office said his security has been increased in the past few days.
