Utah Gov. Spencer Cox’s Remarks On The Assassination of Charlie Kirk

After a suspect was arrested in the murder of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, an emotional Utah Gov. Spencer Cox said he is “as angry as I have ever been” and that this shooting marks a “moment” in the nation’s history.

“This is our moment. Do we escalate or do we find an off-ramp?” Cox told reporters during a press conference on Friday.

Cox confirmed that 22-year-old Tyler Robinson was allegedly the person who shot and killed Kirk on Wednesday while the conservative activist was speaking at a campus event at Utah Valley University in Oren, about 39 miles south of Salt Lake City.
