Gray said the roommate told police after the shooting, Robinson sent a message saying to check under his keyboard, where a note was discovered reading: "I had the opportunity to take out Charlie Kirk, and I’m going to take it."
In another message, authorities said the roommate asked Robinson why he did it, to which the suspect allegedly wrote back: "I had enough of his hatred."

Psychiatrist Suggests Bombshell 'Motive' For Tyler Robinson
A psychiatrist suggested Robinson's alleged motive may be more 'personal' than 'political.'
UK celebrity psychiatrist Dr. Raj Persaud reportedly suggested Robinson's motives could have been more personal and less political, despite conservatives claiming the suspected shooter was radicalized by the "far-left."
Persaud said: "The public often thinks of these attacks as being well-planned and political in nature. But decades of the secret service's own research have shown that these people are often dysfunctional... individuals that are failing at life."
As information trickled out about Robinson after his father handed him over to authorities on September 11, an unnamed family member claimed he became increasingly more interested in politics and left-leaning.
Robinson is in jail without bail.

Robinson was a 4.0 student and earned a $32,000 college scholarship, though he dropped out before finishing his degree. He went from pursuing an engineering degree to training to become an electrician, though a respectable career it was far from what he envisioned graduating high school.
He retreated to gaming, social media and was romantically involved with his transgender roommate, according to Utah Governor Spencer Cox.
The psychiatrist claimed these facts point suggested Robinson was an isolated individual who blamed his personal failures on others. Persaud said those who struggle building careers and relationships can lead to resentment.
He continued: "[Robinson] would appear to fit part of the profile of someone who was on a slide downwards, but not so far down that he was unemployed... although he did spend a lot of time gaming.
"He did engage in another apprenticeship as an electrician, and an electrician is a great and respectable job, but it is not on the same par academically or has the same prestige as studying engineering.
"That moment where Robinson dropped out of university is extremely important. Why did he drop out there? What happened?"
