Utah judge denies request to ban cameras from courtroom in Tyler Robinson murder trial
Utah Judge Tony Graf ruled Friday that cameras will be allowed in the trial of Tyler Robinson, accused of fatally shooting conservative activist Charlie Kirk at a Turning Point USA event in September. Robinson's defense lawyers had argued that media coverage was prejudicial and requested cameras be excluded, while prosecutors contended that transparency combats misinformation. The judge also granted a delay of Robinson's preliminary hearing from May to July 2026 to allow the defense time to examine DNA evidence.
