A report from the Washington Post indicates that alleged Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson used the Discord platform to confess to friends shortly before his arrest.
The outlet reported that Robinson sent a message on Thursday to a private group chat, telling his friends, “It was me.”
The message was reportedly sent about two hours before officials confirmed he was taken into custody.
In the message, Robinson wrote, “Hey guys, I have bad news for you all. It was me at UVU yesterday. im sorry for all of this.”
The timing of the communication appeared to align with law enforcement’s actions later that day.
A member of the Discord group took a screenshot of Robinson’s message and provided it to the Post.
That screenshot now serves as one of the first documented pieces of evidence showing Robinson allegedly admitting responsibility for the attack.
The disclosure on Discord added to an already growing body of evidence surrounding Robinson’s alleged role in the attempt on Kirk’s life.
The revelation came as new reports surfaced about possible prior warning signs involving Robinson’s behavior.
Breitbart News reported that FBI deputy director Dan Bongino appeared on FOX News’ America’s Newsroom with Bill Hemmer on Monday.
