Shooting of Charlie Kirk One Year Later | Tampa News

A judge upheld the charge, citing the crowd’s proximity to Kirk during the shooting. Prosecutors are probing potential political motives, citing messages allegedly found on the weapon and a note left by Robinson, though defense attorneys dispute this evidence.
