Authorities have no leads on the whereabouts of Charlie Kirk's killer, Utah Public Safety Commissioner Beau Mason stated this morning, September 12th, 2025. Investigators are working to reconstruct the shooter's movements, with a rough infiltration and exfiltration path based on photos, videos, and eyewitness reports being developed. This information comes as a Utah Valley University student reported spotting a male suspect on or near the Losee Center roof twice in the weeks leading up to Kirk's fatal shooting on September 10th in Orem, Utah. The student informed the FBI, noting the individual strongly resembled images of a person of interest. The FBI has previously recovered the shooter's weapon and ammunition near Utah Valley University and collected trace evidence from the rooftop where the shot was taken. In parallel, Senator Marsha Blackburn sent an urgent letter this morning to Secret Service Director Sean Curran demanding the immediate termination of a Secret Service agent who posted on Facebook that Charlie Kirk deserved to be murdered. This action follows previous reports of Kirk's assassination. President Donald Trump previously called Kirk's killing "disgraceful" and announced plans to award Kirk the Presidential Medal of Freedom posthumously. Vice President JD Vance participated in an honor guard for Kirk in Salt Lake City, Utah. The McDonald's flag at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, was lowered to half-mast in honor of Kirk. Criticism has also emerged regarding Palantir's alleged failure to track Kirk's assassin, with one user on X (formerly Twitter) stating, "Palantir is fucking worthless." The publication Cult MTL posted a critical obituary for Kirk. The Vegas Golden Knights organization condemned social media comments made by an employee of Lotus Broadcasting concerning Kirk's assassination.
