A Utah judge ruled on Monday that accused Charlie Kirk killer Tyler Robinson will be permitted to wear “civilian attire” but will remain restrained during pretrial hearings.

While Robinson is entitled to wear regular clothing and have restraints concealed during a trial, his attorneys argued he should not have to wear jail clothes and restraints in all pretrial hearings as well. Judge Tony Graf granted Robinson’s request to wear “civilian attire” during pretrial hearings in court , finding that because of the widespread media coverage of the case so far, the appearance of Robinson wearing jail clothes could sway possible jurors.
