In reply to the discussion: Bullet used to kill Charlie Kirk did NOT match rifle allegedly used by suspect Tyler Robinson, new court filing claims [View all]underpants

He took the shot. He had a good rifle to do it and he had a lot of experience with guns.
The angle does seem odd to me.
The DNA thing could mean that anyone from him to his grandfather to his roommate touched then. There was open discussion in card games about killing somebody?
He was definitely a Groyper - devotee of Nick Fuentes - and those were warring factions.
