In a bizarre twist of events, internet detectives have uncovered a book titled "The Shooting of Charlie Kirk: A Comprehensive Account of the Utah Valley University Attack, the Aftermath, and America’s Response Kindle Edition," which was available for purchase on Amazon. The shocking discovery reveals that the book was published on September 9, 2025—remarkably one day before the conservative activist and founder of Turning Point USA, Charlie Kirk, was killed.
The eerie coincidence was brought to light by a tweet from user @EscanorReloaded, which has since garnered over one million views. The tweet raised suspicions about the timing and the nature of the event, suggesting that the assassination might not have been a random act of violence.
Amazon removed the 69-page book from its platform around 6:45 pm ET on September 11, 2025, as per Amazon site archives. The description of the book began with a sentence that stands out for its prophetic tone: "On September 10, 2025, the campus of Utah Valley University was forever changed." It promised an in-depth look at the incident, its immediate aftermath, and its wider implications.
The controversial book had only three reviews, all one-star ratings, each questioning the publication date's alignment with the actual occurrence of the shooting. The reviews, posted on the day of the shooting, expressed disbelief and suspicion, with one even questioning if the author was involved in the event.
Further adding to the intrigue, @EscanorReloaded pointed out a loophole in Amazon's publishing process that allows authors to claim a book was previously published without requiring immediate proof, such as ISBN registration records or copyright filings. This has led to speculation that the book could have been submitted to Amazon at least three days before its appearance on the platform.
Social media users have reacted with shock and speculation, with some conducting their own research and others sharing their findings. One user mentioned still being able to find the link via DuckDuckGo, while another described the incident as "next level harvesting," implying the event was orchestrated for emotional exploitation.
As this story unfolds, the questions raised by the premature publication of the book loom large. How could an account of Kirk's assassination exist before the tragic event? Was it simply an unfortunate coincidence, or is there more to the story? The implications of this discovery could reach far beyond the boundaries of Orem, Utah, prompting discussions on the security of digital publishing platforms, the spread of misinformation, and the potential for manipulation of public perception.
The investigation into the origins and intentions behind the publication of "The Shooting of Charlie Kirk" continues, with many awaiting answers that might shed light on this perplexing occurrence.
