Charlie Kirk murder suspect can wear civilian clothes in court but must remain restrained: Judge

A Utah judge ruled that Tyler Robinson, accused of murdering conservative activist Charlie Kirk, can wear civilian clothing during pretrial hearings but must remain in restraints.

Robinson’s attorneys argued that jail attire could bias potential jurors due to extensive media coverage, while prosecutors cited safety and identification concerns.

Judge Tony Graf said Robinson’s presumption of innocence outweighs the minimal inconvenience of allowing civilian clothing, but emphasized that the severity of the charges—potentially carrying life or death penalties—necessitates restraints for safety.

The court barred media from photographing or recording Robinson in restraints and allowed defense counsel to request adjustments if the restraints hinder communication, ABC News has reported.

Robinson, who has not yet entered a plea, is charged with aggravated murder, firearm offenses, obstruction, witness tampering, and a violent crime in the presence of a child; prosecutors plan to seek the death penalty.
