Jump to contentAllNewsSportCultureLifestyle(Getty)Erika Kirk stated that a judge's decision to advance an aggravated murder case against Tyler Robinson is an important step toward justice for her late husband, Charlie Kirk. Utah District Judge Tony Graf ruled that Robinson will stand trial for aggravated murder, which carries a potential death penalty if convicted. Robinson pleaded not guilty to the sniper attack that killed the 31-year-old Turning Point USA co-founder at Utah Valley University on September 10 of last year. Prosecutors presented evidence including DNA linking Robinson to the bolt-action rifle and a handwritten confession note left for his partner. Charlie Kirk was a prominent conservative activist and key supporter of Donald Trump and his MAGA movement.
