Prosecutors remain on Kirk killing case
SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — A judge has decided to keep prosecutors on the case of conservative activist Charlie Kirk’s killing in Utah. Kirk was shot onstage while speaking outdoors at a college in Orem in September. Prosecutors plan to seek the death penalty against Tyler Robinson, who is charged with aggravated murder. Robinson has not yet entered a plea and a trial date is not set. Defense attorneys had asked the judge to remove a deputy prosecutor from the case because his adult daughter was in the audience when Kirk was shot. The judge declined the request Tuesday.
