• 1:14
  Speaker 4: Good morning, ladies and gentlemen, we got him. On the
• 1:18
  Speaker 4: evening of September eleventh, a family member of Tyler Robinson
• 1:22
  Speaker 4: reached out to a family friend who contacted the Washington
• 1:26
  Speaker 4: County Sheriff's Office with information that Robinson had confessed to
• 1:30
  Speaker 4: them or implied that he had committed the incident. This
• 1:34
  Speaker 4: information was relayed to the Utah County Sheriff's Office and
• 1:37
  Speaker 4: seen investigators at Utah Valley University. This information was also
• 1:41
  Speaker 4: conveyed to the FBI. Investigators reviewed additional video footage from
• 1:47
  Speaker 4: UVU surveillance and identified Robinson arriving on UVU campus in
• 1:52
  Speaker 4: a Great Dodge Challenger at approximately eight twenty nine am
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: on September tenth, in which he has observed on video
• 2:00
  Speaker 4: in a plain maroon T shirt, light colored shorts, a
• 2:03
  Speaker 4: black hat with a white logo, and light colored shoes.
• 2:07
  Speaker 4: When encountered in person by investigators in Washington County on
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: September twelfth in the early morning hours, Robinson was observed
• 2:14
  Speaker 4: in consistent clothing with those surveillance images. Investigators interviewed a
• 2:20
  Speaker 4: family member of Robinson, who stated that Robinson had become
• 2:23
  Speaker 4: more political in recent years. The family member referenced a
• 2:27
  Speaker 4: recent incident in which Robinson came to dinner prior to
• 2:30
  Speaker 4: September tenth, and in the conversation with another family member,
• 2:34
  Speaker 4: Robinson mentioned Charlie Kirk was coming to UVU. They talked
• 2:39
  Speaker 4: about why they didn't like him and the viewpoints that
• 2:41
  Speaker 4: he had. The family member also stated Kirk was full
• 2:45
  Speaker 4: of hate and spreading hate. The family member also confirmed
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: Robinson had a gray Dodge Challenger. Investigators identified an individual
• 2:54
  Speaker 4: as the roommate of Robinson. Investigators interviewed that roommate, who
• 2:59
  Speaker 4: stated that his roommate, referring to Robinson, made a joke
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: on discord. Investigators asked if he would show them the
• 3:05
  Speaker 4: messages on discord. He opened it and showed several messages
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: to investigators and allowed investigators to take photos of the
• 3:12
  Speaker 4: screen as each message was shown by Robinson's roommate. These
• 3:17
  Speaker 4: photos consisted of various messages, including content of messages between
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: the phone contact named Tyler with an emoji icon and
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: Robinson's roommate's device. The content of these messages included messages
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: affiliated with the contact Tyler, stating a need to retrieve
• 3:36
  Speaker 4: a rifle from a drop point, leaving the rifle in
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: a bush. Messages related to visually watching the area where
• 3:45
  Speaker 4: a rifle was left, and a message referring to having
• 3:48
  Speaker 4: left the rifle wrapped in a towel. The messages also
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: referred to engraving bullets and a mention of a scope
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: and the rifle being unique. Messages from the contact. Tyler
• 4:02
  Speaker 4: also mentioned that he had changed outfits. I know there
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: has been speculation as well as to the writing on
• 4:12
  Speaker 4: those casings, those those bullet casings, and I believe we
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: have that as well, and I'll share that with you now.
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: So the area north of Campus Drive Road where the
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: suspect crossed over, you saw some of that in the
• 4:29
  Speaker 4: video that we released last night, consists of a grassy
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: area with trees on the edge of the UBU campus.
• 4:35
  Speaker 4: Investigators discovered a bolt action rifle wrapped in a dark
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: colored towel. The rifle was determined to be a Mouser
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: Model ninety eight thirty six thirty six caliber bolt action rifle.
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: The rifle had a scope mounted on top of it.
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: Investigators noted inscriptions that had been engraved on casings found
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: with the rifle. Inscriptions on a fired casing read notices
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: bulge's capital O wo what's this question? Mark Inscriptions on
• 5:06
  Speaker 4: the three unfired casings read hey fascist, exclamation point, catch
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: exclamation point, up arrow symbol, right arrow and symbol, and
• 5:17
  Speaker 4: three down arrow symbols. A second unfired casing read oh
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: belli chow bella chow belichow chow chow. And a third
• 5:26
  Speaker 4: unfired casing read if you read this, you are gay LMAO.
• 5:32
  Speaker 4: We are indebted to law enforcement across the state who
• 5:38
  Speaker 4: has worked seamlessly together local law enforcement, state law enforcement,
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: and our federal partners with the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
• 5:46
  Speaker 4: We're grateful for everyone who worked together in such a
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: short amount of time to find this person and to
• 5:57
  Speaker 4: bring justice. I want to think the public who has
• 6:00
  Speaker 4: been so engaged reviewing videos, helping us with sending in tips,
• 6:07
  Speaker 4: and helping us get to this point. I want to
• 6:10
  Speaker 4: thank the family members of Tyler Robinson, who did the
• 6:14
  Speaker 4: right thing in this case and we're able to bring
• 6:18
  Speaker 4: him in to law enforcement as well. I especially want
• 6:25
  Speaker 4: to thank the family of Charlie Kirk Erica, Charlie's parents,
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: his children. I want us to be thinking of them
• 6:35
  Speaker 4: as we bring justice in this case. They will be
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: involved in that justice. We will be working very closely
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: with them as we move through this process as well.
• 6:46
  Speaker 4: This is a very sad day for again for our country,
• 6:51
  Speaker 4: a terrible day for the state of Utah. But I'm
• 6:55
  Speaker 4: grateful that at this moment we have an opportunity to
• 6:57
  Speaker 4: bring closure to this very dark apter in our nation's history.
• 7:02
  Speaker 4: With that, I will now turn the turn the microphone
• 7:05
  Speaker 4: over to the director of the FBI, Cash Pitau.
• 7:09
  Speaker 5: Thank you, Governor. This is what happens when you let
• 7:12
  Speaker 5: good cops be cops. The FBI and our partners are
• 7:15
  Speaker 5: proud to stand here today together to bring justice to
• 7:18
  Speaker 5: the family of Charlie Kirk in honors memory. I want
• 7:21
  Speaker 5: to express my deep gratitude to President Trump, the Vice President,
• 7:24
  Speaker 5: and the entire White House who have been so incredibly
• 7:26
  Speaker 5: supportive with both resources and just personally to the FBI
• 7:30
  Speaker 5: as a team. They had our backs the entire way,
• 7:33
  Speaker 5: and I just want to express my gratitude for giving
• 7:35
  Speaker 5: us the resources we need to operate in this space
• 7:38
  Speaker 5: to bring this sort of justice at this sort of speed.
• 7:41
  Speaker 5: In thirty three hours, we have made historic progress for Charlie.
• 7:46
  Speaker 5: Governor Cox, our partnership has been absolutely incredible these last
• 7:52
  Speaker 5: few days. Our partnership will endure. Your state and local partners,
• 7:56
  Speaker 5: your sheriffs, your DPS community has been unbelievably impressive in
• 8:01
  Speaker 5: the hardest of times. In a case like this, cannot
• 8:04
  Speaker 5: be solved, cannot be brought without partnering with your state
• 8:08
  Speaker 5: and local authorities. The FBI has a certain role to play,
• 8:10
  Speaker 5: and we will play that role, and we will lead
• 8:13
  Speaker 5: out for the federal government. But Governor Cox, we are
• 8:15
  Speaker 5: so grateful for your state partnership that let out on
• 8:18
  Speaker 5: this investigation. A little bit of the timeline. Charlie was
• 8:21
  Speaker 5: shot at twelve twenty three pm on Wednesday. The first
• 8:25
  Speaker 5: FBI agents aren't arrived on scene in sixteen minutes with
• 8:29
  Speaker 5: chiefs of police at twelve thirty nine and secured the scene.
• 8:33
  Speaker 5: The FBI immediately launched fixed wing assets. We utilize these
• 8:37
  Speaker 5: assets to transport personnel, specialty technicians, hasa's rescue teams. We
• 8:41
  Speaker 5: also utilize these assets to go back and forth from
• 8:44
  Speaker 5: the East Coast and here in Utah to transport forensic
• 8:47
  Speaker 5: evidence and other evidence that will be analyzed and is
• 8:49
  Speaker 5: being analyzed at our FBI laboratories in Quantico and other
• 8:52
  Speaker 5: laboratories including the ATF and my direction. The FBI released
• 8:56
  Speaker 5: the first set of FBI photos of the suspect at
• 8:59
  Speaker 5: ten am local time on nine to eleven. Then shortly thereafter,
• 9:04
  Speaker 5: the FBI reward of one hundred thousand dollars was released
• 9:06
  Speaker 5: at ten forty five am Local myself and Deputy Director
• 9:10
  Speaker 5: bon Gino arrived on the scene at approximately five thirty
• 9:13
  Speaker 5: PM on nine to eleven. The Governor led a press
• 9:16
  Speaker 5: conference last night at approximately eight pm, where at my direction,
• 9:20
  Speaker 5: the FBI released and never before seen video of the suspect.
• 9:24
  Speaker 5: We also released new images to the public of the suspect,
• 9:29
  Speaker 5: and just last night, the suspect was taken into custody
• 9:32
  Speaker 5: at ten pm Local time, in less than thirty six
• 9:35
  Speaker 5: hours thirty three to be precise, thanks to the full
• 9:39
  Speaker 5: weight of the federal government and leading out with the
• 9:42
  Speaker 5: partners here in the state of Utah, Governor Cox, the
• 9:45
  Speaker 5: suspect was apprehended in historic time period. And I want
• 9:50
  Speaker 5: to highlight what Governor Cox said, This would not have
• 9:52
  Speaker 5: been possible without you, the media and you the public.
• 9:55
  Speaker 5: That's why we went so public so fast, and we're
• 9:58
  Speaker 5: so transparent, and we're committed to that train parency. The
• 10:01
  Speaker 5: crime scene just a little bit there. It is a
• 10:03
  Speaker 5: large crime scene. State and local authorities along with federal authorities,
• 10:07
  Speaker 5: process that crime scene quickly, and I even had the
• 10:12
  Speaker 5: ability to walk through that crime scene and walk through
• 10:16
  Speaker 5: the steps the suspect took to learn more about what
• 10:20
  Speaker 5: was needed and what resources we needed to brare to
• 10:22
  Speaker 5: create a full picture for the FBI and leadership back
• 10:25
  Speaker 5: in Washington. Furthermore, thankfully to state local partners, forensic evidence
• 10:30
  Speaker 5: has been seized and continues to be garnered. Forensic evidence
• 10:34
  Speaker 5: has already been evaluated FBI laboratories in Quantico and state
• 10:37
  Speaker 5: local authorities here. We will continue to process evidence as
• 10:40
  Speaker 5: we see it, as we collect it, and we will
• 10:42
  Speaker 5: continue to deliver to Governor Cox and his team. Last night,
• 10:45
  Speaker 5: we had a total of approximately seven thousand interviews excuse me,
• 10:48
  Speaker 5: seven thousand leads. As of this morning, thanks to your
• 10:51
  Speaker 5: great work, we have over eleven thousand leads that were
• 10:55
  Speaker 5: called in to the FBI, and we are running out
• 10:58
  Speaker 5: every single lead that we can. Every one of those
• 11:01
  Speaker 5: leads will be run out. The arrest is a testament
• 11:03
  Speaker 5: to the dedication of good law enforcement being great and partnerships
• 11:08
  Speaker 5: in law enforcement which I've tried to highlight as my
• 11:10
  Speaker 5: tenure at to the Director of the FBI, there is
• 11:13
  Speaker 5: no better relationship for law enforcement than the FBI to
• 11:16
  Speaker 5: partner with state and local authorities, and you've seen it
• 11:19
  Speaker 5: here in these last few days. The FBI Salt Lake
• 11:22
  Speaker 5: Field Office, along with our offices in La Phoenix, Denver,
• 11:26
  Speaker 5: San Antonio, Las Vegas, Pittsburgh, Buffalo, our headquarters component in Quantico,
• 11:31
  Speaker 5: all participate in the FBI. I want to express my
• 11:33
  Speaker 5: deep gratitude to the employees of the FBI, the men
• 11:37
  Speaker 5: and women, the evidence response team, tacticians, the special operators,
• 11:41
  Speaker 5: the agents, the support staff. You have done monumental work
• 11:46
  Speaker 5: in historic time when the public who had a right
• 11:49
  Speaker 5: to demand such an expeditious solving of an investigation, the
• 11:54
  Speaker 5: FBI answered that call, diligently, critically important to our nation
• 12:00
  Speaker 5: delivered and I'm proud to be their leader, and I'm
• 12:02
  Speaker 5: proud to be the Director of the FBI. This is
• 12:04
  Speaker 5: a very much an ongoing investigation, as the governor said,
• 12:07
  Speaker 5: and we will continue to work with state and local
• 12:09
  Speaker 5: authorities to develop the investigation, to provide them the evidence
• 12:12
  Speaker 5: they need for their ongoing prosecutions, and we will be
• 12:16
  Speaker 5: here to answer every call they absolutely have, as long
• 12:19
  Speaker 5: as it takes, for as long as we need to
• 12:21
  Speaker 5: find and apprehend whatever suspects were involved in this crime. Lastly,
• 12:28
  Speaker 5: to my friend Charlie kirk Rest. Now, brother, we have
• 12:31
  Speaker 5: the watch and I'll see you in Valhalla.
• 12:34
  Speaker 3: I got to tell you, it's so nice to see
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: people in law enforcement and the governor care so much
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: about justice for this assassination, and knowing that, as Cash
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: Barttel said it over and over again, this is what
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: happens to you. Let good people do their jobs in uniform.
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: The Utah governor, they're revealing the truth about what has
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: what was said on the bullet casings, and I love
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: knowing that there are people that aren't trying to cover
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: things up or whitewash things, or make them somehow different
• 13:04
  Speaker 3: than what they really are. We're finding out exactly what
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: happened here. We also know that one of the phrases,
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: the bella coo phrase, is associated with left wing songs
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: loosely linked to twentieth century Italian opponents of fascism. We're
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: going to find out even more about this, But let
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: me also just say that as sad as I am
• 13:28
  Speaker 3: over losing my friend Charlie. I am so thankful to
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: see so many people coming around to love on his family,
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: to love on his friends, to stand up for what
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: he stood up for, to stand up for what we
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: believe in, and to know that this shooter may have
• 13:44
  Speaker 3: thought they won, but they didn't. They didn't stop us.
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: They made us stronger. They didn't silence us. They made
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: us louder. They didn't get rid of Charlie Kirk's voice.
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: They just added millions and I mean that literally to
• 13:59
  Speaker 3: continue on with what he was advocating for. I am
• 14:03
  Speaker 3: so thankful that we live in a country where good
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: can still overcome evil. There are many out there that
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: are celebrating the death of Charlie Kirk. Alamo mar for example,
• 14:15
  Speaker 3: said conservatives who support Charlie Kirk are full of blank
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: They're also Democrats trying to rewrite history, acting like they
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: were not the ones that created this environment and this
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: level of hatred. And I'm glad that they're losing their jobs,
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: many of them on college campuses have lost their jobs
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: for what they said celebrating the death of Charlie Kirk,
• 14:35
  Speaker 3: celebrating the assassination of him, And there's accountability there as well.
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: I want to talk to you about my friends at
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: Kirk Elliott Precious Metals. Two days ago, I got my
• 14:46
  Speaker 3: new order of silver. Now I'm investing in silver right
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: now because the pricing on it is amazing and the
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: upside well, it's real. I actually have a one hundred
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: ounce silver bar. Is actually really cool. It's really heavy
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: because it's one hundred ounces. But I also know that
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: I bought it at the right price and I wasn't
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: paying massive up charges on quote, rare or special coins.
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: And then when you go to sell them, you take
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: away all of your earning potential. Why do they do
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: it this way at Kurt Elliott because they have transparent
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: pricing up front. It's very simple. You pay eight percent
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: when you buy, and here's what matters to you the most,
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: nothing when you sell. There are no hidden fees ever
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: with Kurt Elliott Precious Metals. This is the reason why
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: I recommend them. It's not just about investing, it's about
• 15:41
  Speaker 3: making sure you get more for your money. And that
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: is exactly why Kurt Elliott helps people all the time.
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: Whether it's gold or silver, you can hold it, be
• 15:50
  Speaker 3: a good steward of it, you can pass it on
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: to future generations and you can build wealth with it.
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: It's real bullion, never gimmicks, just investment raid gold and silver,
• 16:01
  Speaker 3: no overpriced coins, no flashy markups. And it's a company
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: that I love because they are a faith driven company.
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: There's no pressure, just honest care. They treat every client
