Tyler Robinson, the 22-year-old accused of killing conservative activist Charlie Kirk, grew up in a quiet, close-knit community in Washington, Utah, where most neighbors attended the same neighborhood church and know each other by their first name. She wondered if it had anything to do with the shooting of Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University, but she had no inkling it would involve Tyler Robinson. Robinson attended Riverside Elementary, about a half-mile away from the family home, and where Schwiermann also worked as head custodian. AdvertisementRobinson attended Utah State University in 2021, where he majored in engineering, but took leave after one semester. In online misogynistic circles, someone who trades in these types of cynical messages could be described as “black pilled” according to Donovan.
