"KASH PATEL: I want to lay out how this works. People think we can just get in group chats and immediately find out who is in them. We the FBI are the investigation tore body supporting multiple prosecutions in ongoing investigations. That's another point. Our investigation as the FBI is ongoing. There are scores of people in this discord chat room."
"But we have to effectuate legal process. We have to go out there with search warrants so that if prosecutors want to later use this evidence, it's not tainted by being illegally obtained. We, the FBI, are running the investigation on the discord chat group. There are scores of individuals that are going to be spoken to. There are also lots of family members and friends that have already been spoken."
The FBI obtained a text exchange in which the suspect claimed he had an opportunity to take out Charlie Kirk and intended to do so because of hatred for Kirk's positions. Those investigatory findings were provided to local and federal authorities for prosecutorial decisions. The FBI is leading an ongoing investigation into a Discord chat that includes scores of individuals. Investigators secured legal process and search warrants before collecting evidence to preserve admissibility. Forensics teams rapidly obtained the suspect's text message chain with a live-in partner and analyzed cell-phone tower data to pinpoint locations. Family members and friends have been interviewed as part of the probe.
