Absolutely insane how they finally caught the right guy. The shooter was a conservative young man and alumni of the very university, whose family was a typical happy Christian republican family from the south.

He had no prior records of mental health issues or crime, and simply seemed to have just gotten fed up with Charlie Kirk spreading hatred, and decided that the way he would see the problem end was by shooting the guy.

He was turned in my his father, roommate, and local minister.
