Utah Fourth Judicial District Court Judge Tony Graf has delayed his ruling on whether there’s enough evidence to bring Tyler Robinson to trial on charges of killing Arizona conservative leader Charlie Kirk.
Following a five-day preliminary hearing, Graf on Friday said he would make his decision after having prosecution and defense lawyers present oral arguments on Sept. 1 in the Provo, Utah, courtroom. That's almost one year since Kirk, 31, was shot and killed before a crowd of up to 3,000 people at Utah Valley University. Kirk had a home in Scottsdale, Ariz., and his organization, Turning Point USA, is headquartered in Phoenix.

Utah County Attorney Jeff Gray has said he will seek the death penalty if Robinson is convicted of murder.
