A Utah judge rules that reporters and the public may attend a key preliminary hearing in the murder case against Tyler Robinson, who is accused of killing Charlie Kirk. Multiple outlets report that the ruling follows a defense request to limit access during parts of a July 6–10 preliminary hearing, when prosecutors are expected to present evidence to show there is enough basis to proceed to trial. The judge, Tony Graf, denies the defense bid to close portions of the hearing. However, sources also report that the judge restricts access to some evidence, indicating that while the courtroom proceedings will largely remain open, certain exhibits may be sealed or limited. One report notes the defense sought to close parts of the hearing and keep some materials from public viewing, while another describes the decision as allowing public access to the hearing itself but setting conditions for how evidence is handled. Overall, the decision centers on balancing public access to court proceedings with measures to control access to specific exhibits in the case.
