More never-before-seen footage of Tyler Robinson was shown in a Provo, Utah, courtroom on Wednesday, showing the accused killer two days after the Charlie Kirk assassination.

Robinson, who is charged with murdering Kirk, turned himself in to authorities 33 hours after Kirk was fatally shot. The video footage presented Wednesday shows Robinson being held at the Washington County Sheriff’s Office in Hurricane, Utah, on September 12, 2025.

Notably, Robinson appears to be wearing the same clothing he wore arriving on campus that morning.. Robinson is wearing a maroon-colored t-shirt with no graphics or lettering and Converse sneakers, according to the video and testimony.

“Never before seen footage of Tyler Robinson being held at the Washington County Sheriff’s Office in Hurricane, Utah before his transfer. Sept 12, 2025,” Gina Milan reported.

Footage taken on the Utah Valley University campus from September 10, 2025, the day Kirk was killed, shows a man believed to be Robinson wearing a maroon shirt, light-colored shorts, and Converse shoes, according to video and testimony.

During the hearing on Tuesday, security footage played in court appeared to show Robinson walking with what authorities described as a “limp” just minutes before the shooting.

“UVU prosecutors just presented this footage of Tyler Robinson arriving on campus for the third time, just minutes before the shooting,” Blake Neff, a producer of “The Charlie Kirk Show,” posted online. “Look at how he is walking, as if something is hindering his right leg.” (See footage above.)

Reports have previously indicated that Robinson appeared to walk with a stiff right leg before the shooting, or with an unusual gait, which some have suggested could indicate he was concealing a rifle under his clothing. Robinson is facing the death penalty for the fatal shooting of Turning Point USA founder and conservative leader Charlie Kirk.

Reporters inside the courtroom said the prosecution used surveillance footage to establish that Robinson was on campus four separate times on September 10, 2025, the day Kirk was killed.

“The timeline prosecutors are building is strong. Surveillance placing Robinson on campus before, during, and after the shot. Roof access, sniper position in the gravel, that screwdriver left behind, every piece fits,” Jack Posobiec reported on Monday. “Defense is already grasping at procedural straws.”

In another video played for the court, a person believed to be Robinson was seen “‘rolling’ over the railing of the Losee Student Center and moving into a prone position just seconds before Kirk was shot,” Neff posted.

Security footage also appeared to show a person believed to be Robinson seconds after Kirk was fatally shot. The person was seen running along the top of a campus building “before dropping down onto the grass and heading away from campus on foot, carrying something,” The New York Times reported.

The hearing will determine whether prosecutors have presented enough evidence to establish probable cause for Robinson to stand trial for Kirk’s assassination.
