The trial of Tyler Robinson, the man accused of killing conservative activist Charlie Kirk, will start in June 2028, a judge has ordered.
What happened
The outlets' own sentences, most widely reported first. Hover or tap one to see who reported it.
Robinson has pleaded not guilty to aggravated murder in the killing of Kirk, 31, as the activist spoke to several thousand people at Utah Valley University on September 10, 2025.
Prosecutors previously said they anticipate the trial to last 17 weeks and that they would be ready by October 2027, but to avoid holding proceedings over Thanksgiving and Christmas, they suggested a start date of January 2028.
In response to both filings, Kirk's widow, Erika Kirk, asked the court to "enforce the right to a speedy disposition" and set the trial for as early as possible in 2027, no later than the state's anticipated readiness date of Oct. 4, 2027, to avoid "needless delay."
Prosecutors allege Robinson targeted Kirk for his opposition to gay marriage and transgender rights.
