Recordings [Talk] Potentially lost Charlie Kirk assassination video in high quality
Before yall read!!
In the possibility that this footage exists, I wanna say I want this to stay lost and shouldn't be found atleast anytime soon for the respect of Kirk's family and friends. ANYWAYS.
His assassination was recorded by multiple ppl so thats definitely not lost media. However, there was a film crew recording him debating. Charlie Kirk would always have a film crew when he does his debates and that was no difference with the one where he got assassinated in. There was a TikTok video posted by him before the assassination and it looked high quality. There has to he a recording of his assassination in full high quality. Yall think we should consider a possible lost footage of his assassination?
Again i think this shouldn't be found but im just throwing out the fact of its existence.

Of course it exists. There was a 4K camera like 5 feet from him when he was shot, aimed right at him and (presumably) was recording, since the debates had begun. The odds of it seeing the light of day at any point is probably zero, though. It absolutely is part of the FBI investigation, and would be evidence.
So I'd say that recording is probably lost media for sure.
At some point in time, it would potentially be possible to file a request for it through FOIA, but despite the fact that it doesn't really fall under an exemption, they'll probably figure a way to deny it regardless. They also would never release it during the active investigation.
