Tyler Robinson’s defense attorneys objected to every exhibit presented by prosecutors, including video of Kirk being shot, but was overruled nearly every time.
Preliminary hearings for the trial of Tyler Robinson, the man accused of assassinating Charlie Kirk, started Monday as Utah state prosecutors presented exhibits and sought their admission into the actual trial.
Utah prosecutors brought expert witnesses to the stand to testify about their involvement with the police work surrounding the assassination at Utah Valley University (UVU) on Sept. 10, 2025. They also presented multiple exhibits, including affidavits, video footage, and images. Nearly every exhibit was admitted into the trial over the objections of Robinson’s attorneys, but in one case the judge said alterations made to a compilation of videos made it inadmissible.
Before covering the exhibits presented at the hearing, here are some of the personnel introduced on Monday who are sure to be part of the hearings, which end Friday, and the subsequent trial.
