Judge Tony Graf is set to rule at a 10:30 a.m. local WebEx hearing, with an oral ruling to be followed by a written decision, on a motion to disqualify Utah County prosecutors in the Tyler Robinson death‑penalty case arising from the Charlie Kirk shooting because a prosecutor’s child was a witness. In prior testimony, a senior prosecutor said County Attorney Jeff Gray wanted to announce the death‑penalty decision when charges were filed, while a state investigator testified that more than 40 eyewitness statements failed to identify the shooter and that the prosecutor’s child did not have a direct line of sight, which the state says undercuts the conflict‑of‑interest claim.
