Discord Handle: zealous_monkey_55095
The confession screenshot. This username is the only one in the whole group the public record shows unredacted. Full write-up →
zealous_monkey_55095 is the single most consequential string in this case. Almost everything the public believes about Tyler Robinson's state of mind traces back to a screenshot carrying that name.
It is also the only Discord username in the group that the public record shows unredacted. The search warrant's own caption says "other usernames redacted" — see Every Other Username Was Redacted. Everything else on this roster had to be reassembled from a leak, from a public comment wall, or from handles people typed out about themselves.
The record on this handle
| Field | What the record says |
|---|---|
| Handle | zealous_monkey_55095 |
| Also rendered | Zealous Monkey 55095 (with spaces, in warrant prose and analysis) |
| Where it appears | The confession screenshot; Klippenstein's release; page 7 of Search Warrant 3217131; effectively every mainstream report |
| Platform confirmation | Discord confirmed an account associated with the suspect and said it removed it |
| Competing attribution | Page 5 of the same warrant attributes the same post to tylor/kum |
| Standing | Established as the name on the artifact. What is not established is who was at the keyboard |
| Steam counterpart | craftin247 → milk — no shared root, no shared spelling |
The thing the two identities do not do
Note what this handle cannot do: craftin247 and zealous_monkey_55095 share no root, no spelling, nothing. Searching one surfaces nothing about the other. The Steam identity and the Discord identity cannot corroborate each other, which is why the Steam roster is a genuinely independent set of names rather than a duplicate of the Discord one.
Four problems ride on this name
1. It is a photograph, not a log. The probable-cause affidavit describes investigators photographing a roommate's phone screen "as each message was shown." There is no export, no message ID, no account token anywhere in the public record — see The Affidavit.
2. The platform label is contested. The affidavit says Discord. The warrant, describing the same interview, repeatedly says text messages. Discord says the planning content was not on Discord at all.
3. Two usernames, one post. Page 5 says tylor/kum. Page 7 says zealous_monkey_55095. Nothing in the document reconciles them — see Two Usernames for One Post.
4. The clock does not fit. Bates-stamped discovery places the Miranda warning at about 6:25 PM on September 11. The confession is dated 7:57 PM in filings and 8:57 PM on the screenshot itself — see Bates 003996-R2.
What Discord itself said about this account
Discord reviewed its own servers and reported it found no evidence the incident was planned on its platform, and then told TMZ that the messages reported as planning details were not Discord messages. It also removed the account. All three statements are about this handle.
- Discord Says It Found No Plotting
- The Planning Messages Were Not Discord Messages
- Discord Removed the Account
Every Image That Carries This Handle
Each image below is an archived capture in which this handle, or the document that names it, is readable. Every one links to its own full write-up page.
What Would Settle It
- A native Discord export for this account: message IDs, edit flags, account token.
- Discord's subpoena return, and the login-IP history for September 10–12.
- The investigators' photographs in sequence, with metadata.
- A single released frame of Bates 003996-R2 showing its timestamp.
- The reconciliation between page 5 and page 7 of the same warrant.
The Fix
None of the records above is available to the public, and nothing in the current process compels their release. The Charlie Kirk disclosure laws are the mechanism that does.
- Law 1 — FBI and DOJ Disclosure. The federal file on this circle, including whatever the twenty-plus interviews produced, is held and not published.
- Law 2 — US Intelligence Disclosure. If any account in this circle was operated from outside the United States, US intelligence already knows or can find out. Law 2 forces that answer into the open — and a clean answer clears everyone here by name.
- Law 4 — Trusted Investigations. The strongest of the four, because it removes the Department of Justice as gatekeeper. It lets trusted investigators compel records from a private company — Discord, Valve — and take testimony from people who were actually in that circle under threat of perjury.

The Location Field Is Typed In. The IP Address Is Not.
On Discord, on Steam, and on every platform in this section, the country shown on a profile is a text box the user filled in. Anyone can type Utah, or Egypt, or nothing at all, and change it again in seconds. Whether it is shown publicly is a setting. It is not evidence of where a person was sitting when they typed a message.
What is not typed in is the IP address. Every session, every login, every message send is written to the platform's own logs with the address it arrived from, alongside device fingerprints and session timing. Discord holds that record for the servers named in the Utah State Bureau of Investigation's warrant — Craftopia, Gamin and The Corruption — and for the account that posted the confession. Valve holds the equivalent record for every Steam account in the same circle.
That is the question this section keeps returning to: is it known where the people in these servers actually were? The FBI reportedly examined twenty or more people in Robinson's Discord circle and charged none of them, and nothing in the public record states where any of them were. To be explicit, because it matters: being in another country is not wrongdoing, no one in those servers has been accused by any authority of anything, and nothing on this site suggests any of them did anything improper. The point is narrower — that a location nobody has verified should not be treated as if it were verified, in either direction.
The answer exists. It is in Discord's subpoena return and in the login-IP history for September 10–12 — records that investigators can obtain through lawful process and the public cannot. What we are asking for is that the record for the account that posted the confession be established through that process and, so far as the law allows, made public. Until it is, every claim of foreign involvement in these chats — and every denial — rests on a field somebody typed.
We are not asking anyone to identify, locate, contact or expose any private individual, and readers should not attempt it. We name no one and we accuse no one. This is a request for a record, not an allegation against a person.
The Steam Side of This Person
The Discord handle and the Steam handle belong to the same person and look nothing alike.
- craftin247 → milk — the eleven-year Steam profile, the rename, and the cross-matching accounts that predate the shooting by about two years.
- The craftin247 / milk Profile Thread
- The Steam Names Roster
- Tyler Robinson's Steam Friends and Profiles
Interesting In This Area
- The same post carries a second username in the same warrant.
- A second Discord identity is reported for the same person, in a leak rather than a court file.
- Discord Friends, Servers and Handles is the full roster this page belongs to.
- The confession's timestamp problem is the strongest single objection to it.
Interesting In Other Areas
- Forensic phone extraction is what would turn this screenshot into evidence.
- The FBI reportedly examined more than twenty people in this circle and charged none.
- Questions about how the confession was produced all attach to this one image.
- The custody timeline is where the clock conflict is set out.

The two full indexes: Discord Friends, Servers and Handles · The Steam Names Roster
Most or all of the people named above are very probably ordinary gamers who did nothing wrong. They commented on a public gaming profile or listed a handle in a bio. The list is published because the search warrant redacted every other username, and because an investigation that can obtain login records could clear each account by name.
