Washington, Utah – 12 September 2025
1. Wide of the home where the Tyler Robinson, the 22-year-old suspect accused of assassinating Charlie Kirk, lives
2. SOUNDBITE (English) Melissa Tait, neighbor of Tyler Robinson:
"This morning, I went ahead and I figured out what his name was and what his dad’s name was and then I did look and find out all the residence where the dad had lived previously and where this young gentleman had went to school and it was right here in our neighborhood."
3. Zoom in on Robinson’s home
4. SOUNDBITE (English) Melissa Tait, neighbor of Tyler Robinson:
"Very quiet family, I know there were several cars that frequented there, that lived there. I’m under the impression maybe there’s a couple younger children. He may have a couple of younger brothers that lived there that his parents were active in the LDS community."
5. Wide of the home where Robinson lives
6. SOUNDBITE (English) Melissa Tait, neighbor of Tyler Robinson:
"I am very much in shock that this was so close to home. We have a really close-knit group of youth. And, you know, neighbor kids mow lawns and we go door-to-door. The kids still sell things door- to-door, they walk to school. So, in general, we have a really nice community right here. And I wouldn’t be apprehensive at all to interact with them."
7. Various of police vehicles
8. SOUNDBITE (English) Melissa Tait, neighbor of Tyler Robinson:
"I would think that his family would be very hurt. I have a lot of sympathy for his family right now, his parents and his loved ones, that they have to really be hurting."
9. Wide of the home
10. SOUNDBITE (English) Laird Cowing, Santa Clara, Utah resident:
"I was surprised at what happened in general, you know, but especially in Utah, of course, and being in this city too, it’s kind of crazy."

13. SOUNDBITE (English) Chantelle Levasseur, Arizona resident:
"Just to make sure that you have faith in God and you speak your truth. Like that’s what he did was he spoke his truth. You didn’t have to agree with everything he said, because we all are different and we all have different opinions, but to be able to have your voice and use it is super important."
14. Wide of the memorial
15. SOUNDBITE (English) Chantelle Levasseur, Arizona resident:
"And I feel like what’s happened, it’s either going to push people into not speaking up or it’s going to push into, I’m going to stand up even more so."
16. People standing in front of the memorial
17. SOUNDBITE (English) Damien Burnette, Scottsdale, Arizona resident:
"I’m glad they got a suspect. Of course, he’s innocent until proven guilty, but I’m glad they’ve got a suspect. Thanking law enforcement for doing all the hard work they did to capture him and pursue him. I’m understanding it was a family member that gave the big lead that turned him in. So thank you to that family member, took a lot of courage to do that."
18. Close of flowers, balloons
