Trump Threatens to Target Iranian Energy Infrastructure If No Peace Deal

“This outpouring has sustained us during the darkest days of our lives.”

The family added that it would not comment further while the criminal case remains ongoing.

“Out of respect for the judicial process, we will not be commenting further at this time. We ask for continued privacy as we navigate this process and immense grief.”

Inside the courtroom, Robinson appeared wearing a gray suit with restraints on his wrists.

According to reporters inside the courtroom, he remained mostly expressionless during testimony, occasionally taking notes as witnesses testified and as his attorneys cross-examined them.

Prosecutors also displayed photographs of the university campus and the rooftop where they allege Robinson positioned himself before opening fire.

The hearing is intended to determine whether prosecutors have presented enough evidence for the case to proceed to trial.

If convicted, Robinson could face the death penalty.

The media did not broadcast the videos shown Monday after defense attorneys argued the graphic footage could prejudice potential jurors.

However, video captured immediately after the shooting had already circulated widely online following the attack.

Those recordings showed Charlie Kirk collapsing after being struck in the neck by what prosecutors have described as a .30-06 hunting rifle round fired from roughly 200 yards away.

Members of Kirk’s security team immediately rushed to his aid before he was transported to a hospital, where he was later pronounced dead.

During the hearing, Kathryn Kirk reportedly bowed her head while holding a packet of tissues as she listened to testimony.

Judge Tony Graf reminded those attending that anyone who left the courtroom during the graphic evidence could return once proceedings resumed.

Security around the courthouse was extensive, with multiple SWAT officers stationed inside the building and additional law enforcement personnel positioned on the roof, according to local reports.

Robinson’s attorneys also sought to block cameras from covering the proceedings, arguing extensive media coverage could influence future jurors.

Throughout Monday’s hearing, defense lawyers objected to nearly every piece of evidence introduced by prosecutors.

The judge sustained only one objection involving a video that appeared to have been edited, directing prosecutors to submit an unedited version for the court’s review, The New York Post reported.

The preliminary hearing is expected to continue throughout the week as prosecutors continue presenting evidence in one of the highest-profile criminal cases in the country.
