Charlie Kirk Murder Hearing Begins

Charlie Kirk Murder Hearing Begins

A five-day preliminary hearing began for Tyler Robinson, the man accused of assassinating conservative activist Charlie Kirk.

Prosecutors played graphic videos of the shooting for a judge, but they were kept from public view.

Kirk's widow Erika fled the courtroom as a police officer described the moment her husband was killed.

The hearing is seen as an attempt to end conspiracy theories that claim Kirk was killed by an exploding microphone on Israel's orders.
