Charlie Kirk's accused killer due in court as lawyers seek media restrictions

A Utah man accused of killing Charlie Kirk is scheduled to appear in court Thursday as his attorneys ask a judge to further limit media access in the high-profile case. Tyler Robinson, 22, faces aggravated murder charges in the September shooting on the Utah Valley University campus in Orem. Prosecutors say they plan to seek the death penalty if Robinson is convicted. Robinson’s legal team is requesting restrictions on cameras and media coverage, citing concerns that widespread reporting could interfere with his right to a fair trial. A coalition of local and national news organizations, including The Associated Press, is fighting to preserve public access to the proceedings. The case has drawn national attention, in part because of Kirk’s profile as a conservative activist and his connections to national political figures. Robinson’s court appearances have previously been conducted via video from jail, but he is expected to appear in person Thursday.

Judge orders Trump to end CA Guard deployment in Los Angeles

A federal judge has ordered the Trump administration to stop deploying California National Guard troops in Los Angeles. The judge in San Francisco granted a preliminary injunction sought by California officials to end the deployment and return the 100 or so remaining troops to the state’s command. But he also put the decision on hold until Monday. Back in June, the Trump administration ordered the deployment of thousands of troops to Los Angeles over Governor Gavin Newsom’s objections. California officials argued that conditions in L.A. had changed since then, but the administration said remaining Guard members were still needed.
