Charlie Kirk Murder Trial Set for 2028. Why the Long Wait? Plus, Lindsay Clancy Denied & Matthew Farwell Jury Deadlocked

Jury selection in Tyler Robinson’s trial over the killing of Charlie Kirk is set for June 21, 2028. Why the long wait, and why has Judge Tony Graf reserved 105 court days? Joining from Utah, criminal defense attorney and former prosecutor Joshua Ritter questions the timeline and examines the competing demands of trial preparation, a capital prosecution and the Kirk family’s wait for justice.

At 11:28, Josh examines the denial of Lindsay Clancy’s motion to dismiss, the proposed investigation of the holdout juror and the Commonwealth’s gag-order request. At 20:38, he turns to Matthew Farwell’s jury reporting a deadlock, the judge’s decision to resume deliberations Tuesday and the competing evidence. This episode reflects developments as of November 9, 2026.
