Bullet Analysis Inconclusive in Charlie Kirk Shooting, Suspect's Defense Team Claims
The FBI is running additional tests on a bullet fragment found during Charlie Kirk's autopsy, as the defense team argues the evidence is not conclusive enough to proceed with the trial.
An analysis from the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosive (ATF) could not conclusively connect a bullet fragment recovered during Charlie Kirk's autopsy to the rifle found near the scene of the rightwing political activist's killing – and the FBI is running additional tests, lawyers for Kirk's accused murderer said in recent court filings.
In the court filings, Tyler Robinson's defense team also asked for a delay to a preliminary hearing scheduled in May, saying they need time to review the bullet analysis as well as an enormous amount of other material that could contribute to the suspect's defense.
