Tyler Robinson, the man who allegedly assassinated Charlie Kirk by firing a bullet through his throat, somehow managed to negotiate a ‘gentle’ surrender to police because he feared being shot. How’s that for irony?
Police complied with his requests to make his arrest as peaceful as possible because they obviously just wanted to get him into custody, but it’s stunning that he had the audacity to make demands about the conditions of his arrest.
In another ironic spin, if Robinson is convicted and sentenced to death, he could ultimately face a firing squad in Utah.

Alleged Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson negotiated ‘gentle’ surrender, was afraid of being shot: sheriff
More details have emerged about how alleged Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson was turned over to police while the manhunt for a suspect ensued.
Washington County Sheriff Nate Brooksby said at a news conference Wednesday he received a call from a former law enforcement friend telling him Robinson, 22, was the shooter.
Robinson reportedly had suicidal thoughts but was convinced by his parents not to harm himself.
Brooksby said Robinson knew he would be caught and was afraid of a SWAT raid on his home.
He was also afraid of being shot by the police, the sheriff said.
Robinson asked for a “peaceful, gentle” surrender, a condition to which the sheriff agreed to in order to get him to turn himself in. He was described as “quiet and somber” upon apprehension.
Brooksby’s office did not question Robinson while he waited for the lead investigators to arrive.

Isn’t that just perfect? He shoots someone in the throat and then wants to be treated with kid gloves by police at his arrest.
