Washington Co. sheriff details how tip from retired detective brought in Tyler Robinson

(September 17, 2025)

Brooksby said he was winding down for the evening when, at approximately 8:02 p.m., he received a call from his friend, a retired detective.

According to Brooksby, his friend shakily said something along the lines of, „Hey, I know who Charlie Kirk‘s shooter is. I know the family through religious association, and he‘s in Washington County now.“

The retired detective said they were working to get Robinson to turn himself in voluntarily.

Robinson‘s family knew that he was involved with law enforcement and trusted that they could go with him.
