Tyler Robinson's Motion to Halt Further Testing of Bullet Fragment (Part 1) (7/25/26)

Tyler Robinson’s defense asked Judge Tony Graf to immediately prohibit prosecutors and investigators from conducting any additional testing on a bullet-jacket fragment recovered during Charlie Kirk’s autopsy until the court resolves the dispute. The defense argued that further forensic work could permanently alter, consume, or destroy the fragment, preventing its experts from independently evaluating its condition and evidentiary value. Robinson’s attorneys requested that a defense firearms expert first be allowed to examine and photograph the fragment. As alternatives, they asked that their expert be permitted to observe any additional testing or that the entire process be video-recorded so the defense can later scrutinize exactly what was done.

The motion was filed after an ATF examination was unable to conclusively identify the damaged bullet fragment as having been fired from the rifle attributed to Robinson. The result was inconclusive rather than an exclusion, meaning the fragment did not contain enough usable markings to either match it to or rule it out as having come from the rifle. With the FBI reportedly planning additional comparative and lead analysis, the defense maintained that basic fairness and Robinson’s right to challenge the prosecution’s evidence required preserving the fragment before potentially destructive testing occurred. The motion does not ask the judge to declare the evidence exculpatory; it seeks to ensure that the defense has a meaningful opportunity to inspect and document the evidence before its original condition is changed forever.
