Utah investigators have released new information about Tyler Robinson, the 22-year-old suspect in a high-profile case. Officials report that Robinson had grown increasingly political in recent years.
His family noted his developing fixation on divisive issues. During a recent dinner, he criticized an upcoming event at Utah Valley University featuring a conservative speaker. Robinson allegedly described the speaker as “full of hate and spreading hate.”
Authorities believe this intense hostility was central to his motive. Governor Spencer Cox revealed that unusual inscriptions were found on bullet casings linked to Robinson.
The engravings included bizarre and mocking phrases. One read, “notices bulges OWO what’s this?” and another stated, “if you read this you are gay lmao.”
Other casings carried direct political messages. One was engraved with “hey fascist! catch!” and arrows, while another featured lyrics from the anti-fascist song *Bella Ciao*.
Robinson admitted to disliking the conservative figure’s viewpoints, calling him a symbol of “hate.” Investigators conclude his actions were driven by a combination of personal resentment and ideological anger.
Law enforcement emphasizes that understanding this mindset is crucial for preventing future politically motivated violence. The investigation into his motives and actions continues.
