George Zinn, who allegedly fabricated a confession in the killing of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, has been arrested on charges of obstruction of justice and possession of child sexual abuse material, Utah authorities said.
Zinn, 71, was arrested at the scene of the September 10 shooting at Utah Valley University in Orem after shouting, “I shot him, now shoot me.” He later told investigators he faked the confession to help the real suspect—later identified as Tyler Robinson—escape, according to a probable cause statement.
Authorities said an investigation into Zinn led to the discovery of explicit material on his phone, including more than 20 images of children between the ages of 5 and 12. Court records also cite graphic messages in which Zinn admitted to being aroused by the material.
According to court documents obtained by TMZ, FBI agents interviewed Zinn at the hospital where he was taken after complaining of chest pain. During that interview, Zinn admitted to viewing child sexual abuse material and said he was “sexually aroused” by children.
Investigators reportedly found images of underage girls in their underwear on his phone.
I guess? Maybe it just hits different if you’re not the group having a murder that was most likely carried out by a ring of narcissistic pedophiles somehow blamed on you?
Like so many people being psychologically and financially abused on such a large scale by a group of narcissists who are also carrying out sexual abuse via their global pedophile network they fund with the money they steal from the people they control.
Like it’s not that I didn’t realize Trump/the GOP was doing all this, I just never really had to think about it from the perspective of his supporters. On the one hand they’re adults that looked at this guy and made the decision for some reason to get involved, but I’ve also never really attempted to sort through a Trump only explanation looking for any possible scraps of truth that line up with reality?
Like during his last presidency he would say insane blatantly obvious lies, and we would just kinda roll our eyes and turn to somebody that wasn’t a cartoon. But he fired or demoted everyone with competence and now it’s like we all have no choice but to listen to the narrative being controlled like by an IRL cast of Who Framed Roger Rabbit.
Your mistake is thinking like conservatives have the same faculties as you. They don’t.
The thing they aim to do when they communicate, and the means by which they do it, are entirely different. Their words are not specific symbols for constructing meaning, but vibesy triggers for existing structures of meaning. It means they’re a lot more sensitive–one could say ‘reactive’ to that, but words do not ‘mean’ things to them in the same way they ‘mean’ things to you and I.
Likewise, when they talk, they’re not saying what the words they’re saying literally mean. They’re howling. Signalling to the pack or trying to get a response in an entirely interiority-free chinese-room sort of way.
