Tyler Robinson was named the prime suspect in the murder of Charlie Kirk at the University of Utah Valley. In an interview that aired on September 12, 2025, Donald Trump revealed who turned in the 22-year-old Utah resident to authorities: Robinson’s father.
«I think, with a high degree of certainty, that we have him in custody», - Trump told Fox News, adding, «everyone did a great job, we worked with the local police, the governor, everyone did a great job».
How Robinson was allegedly connected to Kirk’s death is still unknown. But as the public learns more about him, we have gathered everything we know at the moment about his family and inner circle below.
Robinson’s mother is Amber Jones Robinson, and his father is Matt Robinson, according to multiple sources. Amber previously attended the University of Utah, and Matt is a veteran of the Washington County Sheriff’s Department.
During Trump’s interview on Fox News, the president pointed out that «someone close» to Robinson recognized him from images released by the FBI.
«And someone who was very close to him said 'hmm, that’s him' and eventually reached out to his father, reached out to the U.S. Marshal», - the Republican added.
The New York Post reported that Robinson’s inner circle claimed he was «full of hate». Additionally, Robinson reportedly confessed to his father that he was the shooter in Kirk’s murder.
Robinson is from Utah, and his family has long resided in a suburb called Washington. The city is located in the southwest part of Utah.
According to a Facebook post from his mother in 2021, Robinson has two brothers. At the time of publication, it appears that the suspect shooter does not have any sisters. Other details about Robinson’s family remain unclear as the case unfolds.
