I'm Jackie Howard. The shooting death of conservative pundant Charlie Kirk has caused a ripple effect across the nation.

From the initial horror of the act to those mocking and celebrating his death on social media

to those individuals now facing repercussions of firings and more as a result.

The shot was fired during a peaceful campus event, Kirk's American comeback tour at Utah Valley University in Orem.

He sat under a white gazebo before a crowd of about 3,000 people.

A discussion began about transgender mass shooters when a single shot rang out.

Kirk slumped in his chair with a clear, profusely bleeding wound to his neck.

The FBI released images of a person of interest, a slim white man wearing sunglasses,

and a dark baseball cap, and a dark sweater with a picture of an American flag with an eagle across on the front.

On Friday, President Trump announced that Tyler Robinson 22 was the shooter and was turned in by his father.

Robinson's dad reached out to a family friend who then contacted authorities.

A family member told investigators that Robinson had become more political in recent years,

and in conversations had said Charlie Kirk was full of hate and spreading hate.

During a press conference, Utah Governor Spencer Cox described the weapon

and bullet casings found near the scene. Investigators discovered a bolt action rifle

wrapped in a dark colored towel. The rifle was determined to be a Mouser model 98, 30-0.36 caliber,

a 3.8-6 caliber bolt-action rifle. The rifle had a scope mounted on top of it.

Investigators noted inscriptions that had been engraved on casings found with the rifle.

Inscriptions on a fired casing read notices bulges, capital O-W-O, what's this question mark?

Inscriptions on the three unfired casings read,

Hey, Fascist, exclamation point, catch, exclamation point.
