Charlie Kirk’s alleged assassin Tyler Robinson appeared to be a social teenager who was passionate about mechanics, The Post has learned after viewing his yearbook.
Robinson, 22, got his hands dirty with his fellow classmates as a member of the auto mechanics club, Pine View High School yearbook photographs from the accused killer’s junior year show.
Robinson smiled in his portrait, flashing his teeth at the camera and appearing kempt in a plain blue T-shirt.
The alleged maniac was also featured in a section where a small number of students were asked their favorite subject, to which he responded: “Math, it makes more sense than English.”
According to the yearbook, he was a member of the auto mechanics club — which taught students how to repair broken vehicles.
Former classmates described Robinson as a regular student who had made friends and mainly hung out with kids in the school band.
Robinson appeared to be well-adjusted at the time — he scored in the top percentile on his college entrance exam and committed to Utah State University in Logan after winning a four-year scholarship.
When he walked across the Pine View High School graduation stage in 2021, a roar of cheers can be heard as he accepted his diploma, Reuters reported.
But Robsinson only stuck to Utah State for one semester before he dropped out and enrolled in Dixie Technical College, part of Utah’s public university system, as part of the electrical apprenticeship program.
He was in his third year when prosecutors say he climbed onto the roof of a Utah Valley University building this week and fired a fatal shot at Charlie Kirk from about 200 yards away.
Robinson was on the loose for more than a day before his father, with the help of a local pastor, turned him in to the police.
Investigators have not released a clear motive for the slaughter, but Robinson’s social media indicates he harbored vitriol toward the conservative pundit, often accusing him of being “full of hate.”
Bullets recovered from the assassination had etchings on them, including, “If you read this, you are gay LMAO” — and “Hey fascist! Catch!” aimed at the conservative debater.
Robinson had even allegedly mentioned Kirk’s scheduled appearance at Utah Valley University to family members before the assassination, according to Utah Gov. Spencer Cox.
