Charlie Kirk, a conservative political activist and ally of Donald Trump, was at Utah Valley University debating and conversing with students, a regular occurrence as part of his Turning Point U.S.A. events. However, in a shocking turn of events, the popular media personality was shot dead by an unseen assassin. Although the police immediately caught a senior citizen, he was later released, with evidence indicating that it was someone else.
Later, the President of the U.S.A. revealed that the assassin was in custody and somebody very close to him had turned him in. As per reports, Charlie Kirk’s shooter is a 22-year-old student, Tyler Robinson. And the ‘close person’ who turned him in is none other than his own father, Matthew ‘Matt’ Robinson. As the investigation unfolds with more twists and turns, here’s everything to know about Tyler’s father.
Tyler Robinson’s father worked with the sheriff’s department and was a registered Republican voter
Matt Robinson is a Utah native who worked with the Washington County Sheriff’s Department. According to a Daily Mail report, he is also a registered Republican voter, the party with which the late political speaker, Charlie Kirk, aligned. Matt is married to Amber Jones, and the two have three sons, with Tyler Robinson being the eldest. The family lives in a six-bedroom home in Utah, which is roughly 260 miles south of Orem, where Charlie Kirk was assassinated, as per a report by Mint.
