US judge finds prosecutor in contempt in Charlie Kirk case

A Utah judge has held prosecutors in contempt for discussing defendant Tyler Robinson with the media, violating court restrictions. Judge Tony Graf stated that while the comments about ballistics evidence were permissible, prosecutors overstepped by claiming they had sufficient evidence to convict Robinson of the murder of Charlie Kirk. Despite the violation, Graf declined to remove the death penalty as a potential sentence, suggesting that jury selection processes could address potential biases.
