Kash Patel made a major announcement on Charlie Kirk investigation.
FBI director Kash Patel made a major announcement just before Charlie Kirk’s funeral today, announcing that all angles will be probed, including those which have been dismissed as social media speculations, including the viral video of Kirk’s bodyguard making a hand signal just before the bullet was fired. Also, the private jet, which took off from Provo Airport an hour after the shot was fired and then vanished from all radar systems. “We are meticulously investigating theories and questions, including the location from where the shot was taken, the possibility of accomplices, the text message confession and related conversations, Discord chats, the angle of the shot and bullet impact, how the weapon was transported, hand gestures observed as potential “signals” near Charlie at the time of his assassination, and visitors to the alleged shooter’s residence in the hours and days leading up to September 10, 2025,” Patel announced. “Some details are known today, while others are still being pursued to ensure every possibility is considered. Our primary focus is to complete this investigation and deliver justice. To protect the integrity of the investigation and subsequent prosecution, we cannot release every piece of information we have to the public right now. We will ensure every question is addressed at the appropriate moment,” Patel wrote. Then the FBi director mentioned the two viral conspiracy theories and wrote: “Regarding specific details, such as questions about the plane that allegedly turned off its transponder after departing from an airport near the assassination site, we can share updates when answers are confirmed. After interviews with the pilot and consultation with the FAA, we determined the transponder was not turned off. Incomplete flight data in rural areas caused the apparent gap.”
Conspiracy theory over mystery flight
Before Tyler Robinson was arrested in connection with the case, speculations were rife that the killer flew on a private jet. But businessman Derek Maxfield who claimed to be the owner of the private jet said all those speculations were baseless. Radar services with air traffic control were terminated in mutual agreement between Denver FAA center and his plane.
Viral hand gesture
A video went viral showing curious gestures of people standing around Charlie Kirk just before he was shot. One adjusted his cap and another adjusted his sleeve, triggering theories that those were not just casual moves but intentional. There has been no confirmation on this theory.
