About This Cluster​

This cluster gathers the photo evidence behind one of the investigation's recurring questions: were there distraction figures — patsies — at or near Utah Valley University around the assassination of Charlie Kirk on September 10, 2025? The master investigation file lists several candidates researchers have flagged: George Zinn, the elderly man detained at the scene who reportedly shouted "shoot me" and was initially treated as the shooter; Russell Kennington, the so-called "fake doctor" in a white lab coat arrested inside the crime scene the next day; the pellet-gun man arrested in Provo within an hour of the shooting; and a celebrating long-haired man in the crowd. None of these people has been charged in connection with the killing, and their presence here reflects reported claims and open questions, not conclusions.

The pattern researchers point to is timing. Zinn was taken into custody on scene September 10 and later cleared — the FBI stated he was not the shooter — while Candace Owens reported that Zinn told hospital staff he was paid to be a decoy, a claim that remains unverified. An Orem PD booking log shows Kennington was arrested at 11:30 AM on September 11, 2025, booked at 12:33 PM, and released the same evening; posts allege this was the same day Tyler Robinson's rifle was suddenly "found" after initial K-9 searches came up empty. The pellet-gun arrest in Provo produced an air rifle — a Ruger Yukon-class break-barrel — that citizen researchers contrast with the bolt-action Mauser attributed to the case. Each thread is documented in the images below with attribution to the posters who raised it.

Start with the George Zinn arrest photos, then walk the Russell Kennington lab-coat arrest set and his booking record, then the pellet-gun arrest sequence. Four sub-clusters go deeper: France Hat Man (timecoded crowd stills tied to the French-involvement claims), Location (maps of the Provo arrest site), More and Lower Pri (additional pellet-gun arrest frames).
