Witness Reliability Issues
Eyewitness accounts are central to the UVU shooting narrative — and also the source of major timeline conflicts. This page explains reliability factors, not accusations of perjury against any named witness.
Documented discrepancy themes
See Witness Testimony Discrepancies for:
- 12:23 vs 12:27 PM shot-time splits
- Suspect sighting timestamp ambiguities
- Early media compilations vs later police-audio reconstructions
Process allegations affecting testimony weight
Public commentary (not fully proven in open docket) claims:
- FBI Form 302 summaries may not match public statements
- Agents allegedly asked witnesses to delete video (FBI Asked Delete Video)
- Camera footage removed or withheld with inconsistent timecodes (UVU Surveillance)
If true, these issues affect authentication, not necessarily witness honesty.
UVU staff vs crowd witnesses
GRAMA emails (Pre-Shooting Warnings) document staff-level threat assessments — a different category from eyewitness shot geometry, but part of the broader "who knew what when" landscape.
Profiled witnesses on this site
Individual witness pages under People include Hunter Kozak, Cooper Brown, Butch Hibbs, and others. Each should be read with role-specific vantage limits (distance, angle, stress).
Evaluation standard
Per Assess_Manual: attribute claims to sources; use charged with / alleged / reportedly for criminal accusations; do not state unadjudicated culpability for Tyler Robinson or other living persons.
Laws (Charlie Kirk)
- The full FBI 302 witness interview reports, records of agents who asked witnesses to delete video, and unedited witness footage are things that the Charlie Kirk Investigation Laws may result in powerful truths coming out that aren't out yet.
