Messages confuse police about crime motivation against Kirk
There was also an excerpt from “Bella Ciao”. In addition to the video game jokes, the investigators found a mention of the Italian song historically associated with movements of anti -fascist resistance in World War II. Recently, music has gained popularity for the “La Casa de Papel” series (Netflix) and was included in video games.
Messages are central clues of motivation. Authorities believe the suspect wrote the scribbles, who add to little evidence about his intentions. On Thursday, student Tyler Robinson, 22, was arrested suspected of killing Kirk.
Trump wants death penalty for suspect. United States President Donald Trump (Republican Party) said Robinson hopes to be sentenced to death for the crime. According to police, he told family members that he had participated in the crime.
Tyler Robinson is arrested without possibility of release under bail. No formal accusation has yet been presented against the student, and he had no opportunity to contest the police allegations. The accusation should be made early next week
Online culture influences the language of aggressors. According to The New York Times, recent attacks have shown that shooters use internet references and internal jokes to try to justify actions and attract digital niches.
Authorities differ on political content. Utah’s governor, Spencer Cox, said the phrase about fascism showed the shooter’s intention: “I think it speaks for itself,” he said. But analysts warn that it is difficult to define a clear ideology based on mixtures of jokes and digital symbols.
