The preliminary hearing has begun for the man accused of assassinating Charlie Kirk, and prosecutors are laying out the evidence they believe justifies taking the case to trial. We examine the latest developments, the Mormon connection to the accused, and what this case says about America’s increasingly volatile political climate.

Also tonight:
