Identified Suspect
FBI release photos of “person of interest” in connection with Charlie Kirk assassination, appeal to public for information.
A photo has been released showing the “bolt-action, high-powered rifle” which investigators believe was used in yesterday’s assassination of conservative personality and commentator Charlie Kirk, during a speaking event at Utah Valley University. The rifle, a Mauser .30–06 Bolt-Action Hunting Rifle, was found wrapped in a towel inside a wooded area near the building where the shot which killed Kirk originated from, with the spent cartridge still inside the rifle as well as three unspent rounds of .30–06 Springfield.
All cartridges in the rifle were engraved with wording expressing transgender and antifascist ideologies, according to the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF).
Suspect being taken into custody who was later released.
Theory: “George Zinn, created a textbook distraction that allowed the shooter to escape. Zinn (it has to be said) is also Ashkenazi Jewish. Which doesn’t mean he was part of a Mossad plot. But it’s kinda odd. Utah has one of the lowest jewish populations in America.“
