Charlie Kirk’s killer is going to trial. A Utah judge said so Tuesday: the evidence is there, the case moves forward, and Tyler Robinson could die for what he did. That’s the news. Here’s what matters. Judge Tony Graf didn’t hedge. He looked at what prosecutors laid out — the confession, the note left for a roommate, the rifle fired from a rooftop more than 400 feet from a stage where Charlie Kirk stood talking to a crowd of three thousand people — and he said: this goes to a jury.
