[AmericanFaith.com] Prosecutors are urging a judge to uphold all charges in the case against Charlie Kirk's accused killer, Tyler Robinson. One of the charges carries a death sentence. Robinson's team had argued that prosecutors failed to demonstrate that the shooting carried a great risk of death to anyone but Kirk. Prosecutors then argued that Robinson fired the rifle toward a large crowd, endangering those close to Kirk or near the line of fire. ... "The evidence here easily establishes at least probable cause to believe that Defendant did so when he intentionally fired his grandfather's high-powered rifle towards a crowd of thousands, several of whom were in the line of fire between him and Mr. Kirk, while others were in close proximity to Mr. Kirk," it adds. "Indeed, the evidence is more than sufficient to support a finding beyond a reasonable doubt."... Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here Click Here to read. (Screengrab image: via YouTube)
