Charlie Kirk's Murder: The "Detained Guy"

George Zinn is a well documented professional crisis actor

Remember this guy… he was arrested right after Charlie Kirk was shot …

George Hodgson Zinn has been linked to media coverage or arrests in connection with several high-profile incidents over the years, which aligns with “crisis actors” - people hired to participate in or witness staged events for narrative purposes.

Here’s a breakdown …

9/11 Attacks (2001):

Zinn appeared in a resurfaced video interview from September 11, 2001, where he stated he immediately knew Al Qaeda was responsible upon seeing the towers fall.

This places him as an on-scene witness in New York City during the terrorist attacks, despite being a Utah resident.

Salt Lake City Marathon Bomb Threat (2013):

Shortly after the Boston Marathon bombing, Zinn was arrested and charged with making a terrorist threat via email to the Salt Lake City Marathon organizers, offering to “help place bombs” (which he later claimed was a joke).

He pleaded guilty and received probation.

Charlie Kirk Assassination (2025):

Zinn was detained at the scene of conservative activist Charlie Kirk’s fatal shooting at Utah Valley University on September 10, 2025, amid chaos where witnesses reported him shouting and distracting police.

He was initially held as a person of interest but released after being cleared of involvement in the shooting itself; instead, he was charged with obstruction of justice.

MSM reports describe Zinn as a local Utah political gadfly and activist with a history of minor disturbances, protests, and attention-seeking behavior in religious and political circles, rather than any confirmed role in orchestrated events.
