Robinson's Prelim Hearing Delayed in Kirk Shooting

It's April 1st.

I'm Cory with the story, and this is Entertainment and celebrity news today, AI-powered and star-driven.

Even with an inconclusive ballistics report, Tyler Robinson, the 22-year-old accused of shooting Charlie Kirk,

ain't walking free any time, soon.

Back on September 10th, 2025, Kirk got fatally shot while speaking at Utah Valley University.

Less than 36 hours later, cops nab Robinson and hit him with aggravated murder charges, plus other felonies.

Legal analyst and former federal prosecutor, Neyama Ramani, says the defense got a boost from that report,

since it couldn't definitively link the.

Bullet to Robinson's rifle.

But he stresses prosecutors got plenty more, like an alleged confession Robinson dropped on Discord,

enough to push past reasonable doubt.

Ramani points out inconclusive ballistics happens often.

Evidence degrades, but it does a rule out the gun, or clear the suspect.

Folks see this as a win for the defense, yet the case's weight keeps pressure on,

giving Kirk's profile and conservative circles.

Now, Robinson's team wants to delay or scrap his preliminary hearing set for May,

citing tons of evidence still under review, testing ain't done, and they got rights to those reports.

His next court dates April 17th.

This high-profile death penalty showdown likely won't hit trial till way past 2026,

leaving everyone watching how the other evidence stacks up.
