GoFundMe yanks fundraiser for suspected Charlie Kirk shooter, Tyler Robinson
Story by Maria Villarroel • 10h
A fundraiser set up to help the suspected killer of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, Tyler Robinson's legal expenses has been taken down by GoFundMe, saying the campaign violated the platform's terms of service.
The fundraising page listed Robinson as the organizer, though it remains unclear if he was actually involved. The campaign stated that it was raising money after Kirk's assassination, claiming that Robinson "did what the Democrats told him to do."
GoFundMe was quick to take the fundraiser down, responding to a user on X who posted a screenshot of the website.
"Our Terms of Service explicitly prohibit fundraisers for the legal defense of a violent crime," the company wrote on X. "Any attempted fundraisers for the suspected shooter will be swiftly removed from the platform and fully refunded. Our hearts go out to the Kirk family and everyone impacted by this tragedy."
