PROVO, Utah — This week, a surveillance video has taken center stage in the ongoing legal proceedings against Tyler Robinson, a Utah resident accused of murdering Charlie Kirk, the founder of Turning Point USA.

The compilation of videos, revealed during Robinson’s preliminary hearing on Tuesday, purportedly tracks the 23-year-old throughout Utah Valley University on September 10, 2025. The footage reportedly traces his arrival on campus hours prior to the incident, as well as his movements before and after Kirk’s tragic death.

David Hull, an agent from the Utah State Bureau of Investigation, testified that the investigation utilized campus surveillance cameras to trace the figure seen on the roof of the Losee Center for Student Success—where prosecutors claim the deadly shot was fired—both prior to and following the incident.

Though the shooting itself is not captured in the video, prosecutors assert that the footage shows an individual, identified as Robinson, accessing the rooftop, edging towards the building’s perimeter, assuming position, and departing shortly after the shot was fired.

Robinson is charged with aggravated murder in Kirk’s death, and prosecutors are seeking the death penalty. He has not entered a plea. The weeklong preliminary hearing was aimed at determining whether prosecutors have enough evidence for the case to proceed to trial.

Investigators say a vehicle believed to belong to Robinson arrived at a UVU parking garage. Hull testified that the vehicle matched records for Robinson and had distinctive wheels. The driver, whom Hull identified as Robinson, wore a red or maroon T-shirt, gray or olive shorts and Converse shoes before walking onto campus.

Hull said Robinson went to the amphitheater area, where he made contact with representatives from Turning Point USA, Kirk’s organization, before returning to the garage around 9:25 a.m. and leaving in the vehicle.

Hull testified that Robinson returned to campus on foot wearing the same clothing and carrying a blue backpack. Investigators tracked him to Chick-fil-A inside the Sorensen Center, where Hull said he bought food, sat down and ate. Robinson then moved across campus, crossed Campus Drive into a wooded area, and returned to campus without the backpack.

“He moves out across Campus Drive into a wooded area on what would be kind of the northeast side of Campus Drive, then returns back onto campus,” Hull explained as the video played in the courtroom. “We noticed at this point that he’s no longer carrying the backpack that he was originally wearing.”

Hull said Robinson then moved through the Gunther building and the computer science building before going to a railing that provided access to the roof of the Losee Center. He then allegedly came back down the stairs and walked off campus just before 11 a.m.

Hull testified that Robinson returned to campus again, this time wearing different clothing but the same shoes. Hull said Robinson also appeared to be walking with a limp or unusual gait.

According to Hull, surveillance video showed Robinson coming up stairs in the parking structure, moving around Campus Drive and walking south across the front of the Losee Center. He then allegedly appeared on an exterior staircase that provided access to the building’s roof.

At about 12:15 p.m., Hull testified, the figure investigators identified as Robinson “kind of rolls over the railing onto the roof of the building.”

Hull testified that the figure ran across the rooftop of the Losee Center toward the southwest corner, crouched down and crawled toward the edge of the building. Hull said the person could be seen lying prone before the reported shot was fired at 12:23 p.m.

After the shot, Hull testified, the figure stood up, moved north across the roof and headed toward the northeast corner of the building.

The video shown in court did not capture the actual shooting, prosecutors clarified. But they said it showed the person on the roof moving into position before the shot and leaving immediately afterward.

Hull testified that the figure lowered himself from the roof, jumped onto a grassy area and moved toward Campus Drive. Hull said the person appeared to be carrying “some kind of an object” in his hand.

On cross-examination, Hull acknowledged he could not see an actual gun in the video. He testified that the object appeared long, concealed or in a bag, and that, based on his training and experience, it could be a firearm.

Investigators also noted that the apparent limp or unusual gait was no longer visible after the shooting.

Hull testified that investigators used the campus video to identify a wooded area they believed could have evidentiary value. The area was secured, and Hull said he was later notified that a gun had been found there.

On redirect, Hull testified that a rifle was discovered in the wooded area where investigators believed Robinson had entered. He said Robinson was seen entering the wooded area on at least two occasions: during his second visit to campus and again during the visit when the shooting occurred.

Hull testified that surveillance video showed a vehicle he identified as Robinson’s at the intersection of Campus Drive and 800 South in the early morning hours after the shooting.

According to Hull, the vehicle had contact with Officer Goforth, a Spanish Fork officer working security detail. Hull testified that something about the interaction prompted Goforth to note the vehicle’s license plate information. When information later emerged that a similar vehicle may have been involved, Goforth ran the partial plate and determined the vehicle was registered to Tyler Robinson and his mother, Amber Robinson.

Hull said Goforth reported that the person he interacted with was a male he believed to be Tyler Robinson.

On Friday, Judge Tony Graf sanctioned media members after an exhibit was inadvertently shown and broadcast during Thursday’s proceedings. Graf said he did not want to “rush or make snap decisions” before ruling that no further exhibits would be shown for the rest of the day, though the final video compilation was later allowed as an exception.

Graf set oral arguments on the preliminary-hearing evidence for Sept. 1 at 10 a.m. Robinson has not entered a plea.

Following Friday’s hearing, Kirk’s family urged Graf to move the assassination case against Robinson forward without delay, arguing the five-day preliminary hearing produced “overwhelming evidence” against him.

“A prompt determination is imperative in the interest of justice,” the filing said.

The family noted that the case is nearing the one-year anniversary of Kirk’s death and that Robinson has been under arrest for 10 months.

“The defendant is entitled to a fair trial, and he must receive one,” the family’s attorneys wrote in Friday’s filing. “He is not, however, entitled to cause undue delay in the criminal justice process.”

In a disturbing and violent case that has captured international attention, an Irish man has been convicted for the murder of American nurse Mackenzie Michalski. The tragic incident unfolded after a night out in Budapest, resulting in Michalski’s untimely death at the hands of Lorcan Tadgh Murphy, a man now widely recognized for his sinister obsessions.

Murphy, who was convicted on charges related to the killing that occurred on November 5, 2024, has been revealed as a person who habitually preyed on women. Reports from the Irish Independent have brought to light his unsettling habit of secretly filming women in public spaces—a practice developed to capture his numerous failed attempts at intimate encounters.

Hungarian law enforcement officials have assembled a chilling profile of Murphy, labeling him as a “perverted fiend.” This characterization is supported by the digital evidence amassed during the investigation, which includes recordings and diary entries. These documents reveal Murphy’s singular focus on pursuing brief romances with women, driven by a compulsive urge that defined his existence.

The extent of Murphy’s misconduct is further illuminated by the disturbing collection of footage he kept. He had recorded interactions with 16 women, all of whom rebuffed his propositions, painting a broader picture of both his persistence and his failures.

His disturbing activities extended into a meticulous diary, where he cataloged the European cities that served as the backdrop for his pursuits. Here, he rated locations based on his perceived success with women, documenting their attractiveness and willingness to engage with him, according to perceived criteria.

He also made a record of his attempts with women, hoping to get to 1,000 before the fatal encounter with Michalski.

Murphy claimed he had “a few whiskeys” at his apartment before going to a bar where he saw the New York native talking to another man, he told the Budapest Metropolitan Court on Tuesday.

Michalski, who was working as a nurse in Portland, Ore., had just finished a European trip with a friend and was experiencing Budapest nightlife ahead of her return flight to the US.

“I saw her three times [in the bar],” Murphy said, according to the outlet. “Initially, Mackenzie was with another man. I saw her sitting on a bench. She was looking at me. She kept looking at me. I interpreted this as an invitation [to approach her].”

Murphy eventually made his way closer to Michalski, where they ordered a few 16-ounce beers and talked before finding a “more secluded part of the bar.”

The Irish man told the court he didn’t think Michalski was drunk as they left the bar to go to a nightclub to dance.

Video footage captured the two walking hand-in-hand as they made it to Murphy’s apartment building before the two made it inside and on an elevator, the last known footage of Michalski.

Murphy then claimed the two engaged in consensual sadomasochistic sex.

Michalski’s autopsy report found her hands had been tied with a belt while Murphy assaulted her, beating her hands and chest, biting her upper arms and strangling her for roughly three minutes, the outlet reported.

Michalski’s corpse showed signs of blunt force trauma to the head along with injuries throughout the rest of her body.

Video of Michalski’s abused, naked and bound corpse was discovered on Murphy’s phone by police.

Along with the disturbing footage, investigators discovered Murphy’s search history that included how to dispose of a body, whether pigs really eat dead bodies, wild boars in the Lake Balaton, Hungary area and the competence of Budapest police.

He admitted to purchasing a suitcase to stuff his victim in before driving her nearly 100 miles to a wooded area where he dumped her body.

Michalski’s parents blasted Murphy’s claims in court, asking how he was able to “besmirch” her with the outlandish claims involving “a perverse (BDSM sexual) culture which she was not part of.”

Hungarian law protected Murphy’s identity, only identifying him by the initials LTM, but the Irish Independent identified him on Sunday as a matter of public interest, according to the outlet.

The man told the court he didn’t mean to kill Michalski, calling it an accident during the “intimate encounter.”

Murphy was found guilty of murder on Thursday, a verdict his lawyers quickly appealed, slamming it as “absolute nonsense,”

He was sentenced to 14 years in a Hungarian prison and will face deportation immediately after his release, where he will be banned from the country for 10 additional years.

The Budapest Metropolitan Court gave him a year and a half reduction of his sentence for time served before his conviction.

Hello and welcome to Daily Mail Sport’s World Cup Breakfast, day 32 edition. This is your go-to source for catching up on everything you might have missed overnight across North America.

Stay tuned for the latest news highlights, viral moments, and everything you should watch out for today.

OVERNIGHT ACTION

Norway 1-2 England (AET)

In case you missed the action: England has secured a spot in the World Cup semi-finals and will face Argentina next! They had to endure a challenging match to get there.

Jude Bellingham showcased his brilliance once again for Real Madrid, scoring twice in a match that England could have easily lost without his contribution.

Andreas Schjelderup had given Norway a shock lead against the run of play in the first half as he found the top corner with what looked like a cross.

Bellingham then levelled shortly before the break, before Norway had a second goal disallowed not long after half-time due to an Erling Haaland foul.

Into extra-time it went, but it only took three minutes for Bellingham to find the winner – and from there England hung on, in no small part thanks to another colossal defensive shift from Dan Burn. 

The main controversy that has emerged is whether the ball hit one of the spidercam wires before Bellingham’s opening goal. Norway’s goal kick appeared to strike the technology, but FIFA deny that that was the case. If it did, the goal shouldn’t have stood. 

Meanwhile, Thomas Tuchel branded his England team ‘lucky’ and said they ‘made life difficult’ – only for Bellingham to hit back and say: ‘Maybe he (Tuchel) doesn’t know what it’s like to play in those kind of conditions against Erling Haaland, Odegaard, Nusa, Sorloth.’

Argentina 3-1 Switzerland aet

Argentina were forced to go the distance by a valiant 10-man Switzerland but proved they have quality in abundance beyond Lionel Messi.

The South Americans will play England in the semi-finals on Wednesday evening after two goals in the second half of extra-time.

Alexis Mac Allister had given Argentina an early lead with a header but Switzerland’s Dan Ndoye levelled in the 67th minute. Their striker, Breel Donald Embolo, then got himself sent off with a second booking due to simulation.

Just when it looked like penalties might be on the cards, Julian Alvarez produced a stunning strike from outside the area in the 112th minute, before Lautaro Martinez wrapped up the game after a counter-attack in the 121st.

Argentina have won all their knockout games the hard way. They beat Cape Verde after extra-time, needed a late three-goal turnaround against Egypt, and had to play another 120 minutes against Switzerland. Who can stop them? Will they run out of steam?

VIEW FROM THE GROUND

Images of a quintessential Englishman like King Harry Kane were perhaps never going to be likely at School Street, Boston, where I found this one of Erling Haaland promoting Swiss wrist watches. It’s a mere four-minute walk from here to the scene of the Boston Massacre, where King George III’s English troops opened fire on US colonists in March 1770.

But it’s not by chance that Haaland currently seems more ubiquitous at such spots than perhaps any other player bar the US stars and Lionel Messi. He, even more than Messi, Lamine Yamal or Kylian Mbappe, has captured this country’s imagination and it’s about a lot more than his football. America seems to love the way he’s talked about them, particularly the viral interview clip in which he said he found Americans ‘kind of hilarious,’ ‘funny, and that he likes the way they are. 

During the quarter-final build-up here last night, Fox Sports pointed out that Haaland’s Instagram following has risen from 40 million to 62 million at this World Cup. Yet before the World Cup, many Americans wouldn’t even have been able to identify him. A superstar for the late 2020s, who shapes his own profile in ways that the rest of the tournament’s small, elite superstar group do not.

TEAM OF THE DAY

Thanks as always to Sofascore for the graphic.

CELEBRITY WATCH

Take your pick, there was a plethora of celebrities on show during England’s 2-1 win over Norway.

You had former Three Lions stars such as David Beckham, John Terry and Ashley Cole there alongside World Cup winners such as Cafu, Kaka, Gilberto Silva and Alessandro Del Piero.

Then you had the likes of music legend Mick Jagger and TV presenter Maya Jama also there.

At Argentina’s 3-1 extra-time win over Switzerland in Kansas City, NFL quarterback Patrick Mahomes – of the Kansas City Chiefs – was in attendance with an Argentina shirt.

VIRAL MOMENT OF THE DAY

Jude Bellingham and Haaland’s friendship is well-documented from their time at Borussia Dortmund and even though they were rivals on Saturday, they still found time to share a laugh on the pitch.

As Haaland awaited to attack a Norway free-kick, Bellingham tried a novel way into distracting him by appearing to tickle or pinch his backside. The pair saw the funny side as they both burst out into hysterics.

PICTURE OF THE DAY

Staying in Miami it has to be the full-time scenes as the victorious England squad and fans celebrate with one another by singing Oasis’ classic Wonderwall.

Could it be coming home? I said maybe… 

STAT OF THE DAY

Aged 23 years and 12 days (as of Saturday), Bellingham is the second-youngest player to score two or more goals in successive FIFA World Cup knockout stage games behind only Brazilian icon Pele in 1958 (17 years and 249 days). 

Oh and to further underline, Bellingham’s brilliance only Mbappe (12) has scored more World Cup goals than him at the age of 23 or younger. Bellingham now has seven, the same tally Pele achieved at that age too.

THREE THINGS TO LOOK OUT FOR TODAY

1) No football!

I’m sorry to say we’ve now got two days – two whole days! – without a ball being kicked. 

The semi-finals only get underway at 8pm UK time on Tuesday when France play Spain, then England face Argentina on Wednesday at the same time. 

If you’re still after a sporting fix, you can watch the Wimbledon men’s singles final from 4pm as Jannik Sinner meets Alexander Zverev. 

The latter will be hoping to build on his French Open crown from a few weeks ago, which was his first Grand Slam title. 

 2) England to clock up more air miles?

England need to get to Atlanta ahead of their semi-final. Mercifully, it should only be a couple of hours in the air from Miami.

I’m not privy to their flight schedule, but you imagine they’ll want to get in the air sooner rather than later just to get settled in.

The Three Lions will be hoping for a better performance than last time in Atlanta, when they only just scraped past DR Congo in the last 32. That already feels ages ago. 

3) Expect a bitter fall-out

I wouldn’t be surprised if we see a toxic reaction throughout the day from Norway’s media and supporters.

The main contention will be over Jude Bellingham’s opening goal. It came after the ball appeared to hit a camera cable, dropping out of the sky, but it’s not something everyone will have noticed down the pub.

FIFA have disputed that the ball touched the overhead wire, but it certainly looked unusual, and if it did, the referee should have awarded a dropped ball to Norway. 

You can understand if they go ballistic about it today.

Rosie O’Donnell has weighed in on the political future of President Trump, expressing doubt about his longevity in office when questioned about possibly leaving the country until the 2028 election.

A vocal critic of Trump, O’Donnell shared her thoughts during an appearance on CNN’s “The Lead with Jake Tapper” on Friday. She remarked that the president’s “demise is visible,” citing unsupported assertions related to his health.

Tapper inquired, “In your post about potentially departing from the U.S., you mentioned you might return once ‘it’s safe for all citizens to have equal rights there in America.’ Would you come back when Trump leaves office, presumably in January 2029, or does it depend on the 2028 election outcome?”

O’Donnell responded, “Well, Jake, I don’t believe he will last that long. There are medical professionals who can offer accurate insights into his condition, and his decline is apparent to those who are not willfully ignoring it.”

O’Donnell further referred to a recent event where Trump mistakenly called Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky “Putin” during the NATO summit in Ankara, Turkey earlier this week.

“I mean, he called Zelensky, ‘Putin,’” O’Donnell added. “He makes the kind of mistakes that you would forgive at Thanksgiving dinner, but you would never let grandpa cut the turkey because it might be dangerous because he doesn’t know what he’s saying.”

Tapper then piled onto O’Donnell’s comments, referring to comments made by Trump moments later in which he appeared to call Iran the “Islamic Republic of Japan.”

“Don’t forget to refer to the Islamic Republic of Japan, I think, as well,” Tapper said.

“Correct,” O’Donnell replied. “I mean, we can sit here and name them. There are so many obvious understandings of his dementia and how it’s taking over.”

Fox News Digital reached out to the White House for comment on O’Donnell’s comments. 

O’Donnell moved to Ireland in January 2025 with her teenage son after Trump won re-election in 2024, citing the changing political climate and her longtime feud with the president.

Trump later blasted the comedian in two separate Truth Social posts, while threatening to revoke her citizenship.

“Because of the fact that Rosie O’Donnell is not in the best interests of our Great Country, I am giving serious consideration to taking away her Citizenship,” he wrote in July 2025.

“She is a Threat to Humanity, and should remain in the wonderful Country of Ireland, if they want her. GOD BLESS AMERICA!”

He later doubled down on his claims in September 2025, writing, “She is not a Great American and is, in my opinion, incapable of being so!”

In June, late-night host Jimmy Kimmel said during his show that he asked O’Donnell, among others, if she would guest host his show during his two-month vacation, framing the choice as a “special treat” for Trump.

“I asked one of his all-time favorites — Rosie O’Donnell, to be here to keep the hits coming,” Kimmel said. O’Donnell will host for a week, beginning Aug. 17, according to Entertainment Weekly. 

Recently resurfaced footage captures the profound aftermath of World Cup star Jayden Adams’ last moments with the South African team, offering a glimpse into the poignant final notes of his celebrated sports journey.

At just 25, Adams was tragically discovered dead on Saturday morning in Schotschekloof, Cape Town. His untimely death occurred only weeks after he had proudly represented his nation twice on football’s grandest stage. The cause of his death remains a mystery, adding a layer of sorrow to an already heart-wrenching event.

The football world is reeling from the news, as this loss deeply affects not only fans and players but also Adams’ girlfriend, Aqueelah Adendorf, and her young daughter, who are left to grieve his tragic departure. In a tribute to Adams’ legacy, players paused for a moment of silence during the quarter-final matches that followed the news, acknowledging the impact of his life on and off the pitch.

In the wake of his passing, a touching video has emerged from a moment in the South African locker room, capturing their jubilation after a hard-fought 1-0 victory over South Korea—a win that propelled them into the final 32 of the tournament.

The video strikingly contrasts the exuberant atmosphere with the solemnity of Adams, who is seen in quiet reflection as his teammates erupt with song, dance, and table-pounding joy. This image of contemplation speaks volumes about the revered athlete who left a legacy beyond statistics and scores.

Adams, who had come off the bench in that match to see out the win, looked unresponsive to the party going on around him and preferred to watch.

We do not know the full context of the clip, but we do know that even being there was an achievement and a show of great character from the midfielder. 

In the lead up to the tournament, he was mourning the death of his grandmother, Marianna Adams. 

She died just two weeks before the World Cup kicked off, and was buried on June 27 while Adams remained on international duty in the United States.

He was also still grieving the loss of one of his closest friends, South African youth footballer Oshwin Andries, who was killed three years ago.

Andries was stabbed in February 2023 and died in hospital in Stellenbosch – his family alleged he did not receive adequate medical treatment after he was discharged then later readmitted to the emergency unit.

Less than 24 hours before his shock passing was reported, the 25-year-old reposted a photo of himself and girlfriend Aqueelah Adendorf on Instagram.

Adendorf has taken to the social-media platform to thank people for ‘kind condolences and messages of support’ in the wake of her boyfriend’s death, while adding that they ‘truly mean a lot to me and [five-year-old daughter] Allaia during this difficult time.’

Following the heartbreaking news, her emotional pre-World Cup message to Adams has also resurfaced, in which she gushed over how ‘inspiring’ he is as he prepared for the tournament.

‘Watching you achieve something this big has filled my heart with so much pride,’ Adendorf wrote alongside a picture of them together in an Instagram post on May 27.

‘From the hard work, sacrifices, early mornings, disappointments, and moments nobody saw — you kept going, stayed disciplined, and trusted God through it all. And now look at you… representing your country on the national team.

‘I don’t think you even realize how inspiring you are. You deserve every single moment of this because I’ve seen how much you’ve worked for it. Through every challenge, you never gave up on your dream, and that alone makes me so proud to stand beside you and support you through it all.

‘No matter how far this journey takes you, just know I’ll always be your biggest supporter, loudest cheerleader, and safest place.

‘This is only the beginning for you, my love. May God continue to guide your steps, protect you, and open even bigger doors for your future. Keep shining, keep believing, and keep making us proud. Your hard work is finally paying off and I know there’s still so much more greatness waiting for you.

‘“Commit your work to the Lord, and your plans will be established.” — Proverbs 16:3’.

Announcing Adams’ death, the South African Football Players Union wrote: ‘The SAFPU is devastated by the untimely passing of Mamelodi Sundowns and Bafana Bafana midfielder, Jayden Adams.

‘Jayden had only recently represented South Africa at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, carrying the hopes of the nation with pride, courage, and distinction.

‘His passing is an immeasurable loss to his family, teammates, clubs, the football fraternity and country at large.

‘We extend our deepest condolences to the Adams family, Mamelodi Sundowns, Stellenbosch FC, Bafana Bafana and all those whose lives he touched.

‘South African football has lost a gifted player, a proud servant of the game and a young life that still had so much to offer.

‘May his soul rest in eternal peace.’

The union also posted on social media platform X: ‘Death has cruelly stolen one of our own. It has robbed our nation of a remarkable footballer, but it will never take away the legacy Jayden Adams leaves behind. We will forever remember his humility, his extraordinary talent and the pride with which he represented South Africa.

‘Rest in eternal peace, Jayden. You will never be forgotten.’
