Baron Coleman Uncovers Disturbing Google Trends Evidence Before Charlie Kirk Assassination That Could Implicate Washington Insiders

Baron Coleman returned from months away to reveal troubling patterns in Google search data. Using Google Trends functionality most people don't know exists, Coleman discovered that specific names, locations, and details connected to the Charlie Kirk assassination were being searched in Washington DC and Huntsville, Alabama days and even months before the shooting occurred. The searches included the shooter Tyler James Robinson, his roommate Lance Twiggs, the plane owner Derek Maxfield, the Losee Building building, and the weapon used. Coleman walks through each discovery methodically, showing how these searches appeared in only two locations: the DC metro area and Huntsville, Alabama—home to major FBI facilities. While carefully avoiding definitive conclusions, Coleman presents the data and lets viewers draw their own disturbing inferences about who might have had foreknowledge of the assassination.

An Unexpected Return With Disturbing Findings

Baron Coleman had no plans to return to podcasting after months away. He hadn't prepared his settings, hadn't planned the content, and certainly hadn't expected to stumble upon information so troubling it would compel him back on air. After consulting with several high-profile political figures—including household names who have advised presidents—Coleman decided the information was too important to keep private. What he discovered using a little-known Google search function could potentially reveal foreknowledge of the Charlie Kirk assassination by parties in Washington DC and Huntsville, Alabama.

Coleman emphasizes from the start that he's presenting facts, not drawing conclusions. He's sharing what the data shows and allowing his audience to form their own interpretations. But the patterns he uncovered are disturbing enough that even seasoned political operatives he consulted had never heard of the search functionality he used.

How Google Trends Works

Coleman begins by explaining Google Trends, a search function he first learned about years ago while advising for a grocery store chain. The tool allows users to see when people searched for specific terms, where those searches originated geographically, and the relative volume of searches over time. The data is indexed to 100, meaning the peak search moment in any given timeframe registers as 100, with all other moments shown as a percentage of that peak.

To demonstrate, Coleman searches "Atlanta Braves" and shows how interest spikes and falls over days and weeks. He can narrow results to specific states, metro areas, or even individual cities. He can set custom date ranges and exclude certain periods. This functionality becomes critical when examining searches related to the Charlie Kirk assassination.

First Application: The Butler Shooting

Coleman first used Google Trends for a nationally prominent story after the Donald Trump assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania. He searched for Thomas Matthew Crooks, the alleged shooter, and found exactly what you'd expect: no interest in that unusual name until the day of the shooting, when searches exploded nationwide.

But Coleman went deeper. He ran custom date ranges excluding the shooting date and searched specific geographic regions. He discovered something odd: in the year leading up to the Butler shooting, searches for Thomas Matthew Crooks appeared in only two locations in the entire United States—Washington DC and Huntsville, Alabama.

Coleman tested other large states: California, Pennsylvania, Texas, Florida, New York, Ohio. Nothing. But Washington DC and Huntsville, Alabama kept showing hits. The connection? Both locations house major FBI facilities. The FBI headquarters is in Washington DC, and they operate a massive facility in Huntsville, Alabama. Coleman notes this could be remarkable—suggesting someone in the FBI was searching Thomas Matthew Crooks before the Trump shooting—but acknowledges it's just one data point. "If something happens once, it's a random occurrence. Twice is a coincidence. Three times is a pattern."

The Charlie Kirk Searches Begin

When the Charlie Kirk assassination occurred on September 10th, Coleman initially hesitated. Did he really want to be armed with this information? Did he want to know what the data might reveal? After internal debate, he began his searches.

The shooter was identified as Tyler James Robinson. Coleman searched the full name nationally over seven days and noticed a small blip on September 9th at 7 PM—the day before the shooting. Someone in the United States searched Tyler James Robinson's full first, middle, and last name the day before the assassination.

Coleman notes he hasn't seen the shooter listed anywhere as "Tyler James Robinson"—mostly just "Tyler Robinson." He had to do considerable searching to confirm the middle name was James. Yet someone searched that complete, specific name the evening before the shooting.

The Washington DC Connection Emerges

Coleman narrowed his search to the Washington DC metro area. At 11 AM on September 9th—the day before Charlie Kirk was assassinated—someone in the DC metro area searched Tyler James Robinson. You can clearly see in the Google Trends data when news broke and the name became public, creating the expected spike. But why was someone searching that name the day before?

Then Coleman remembered: it wasn't just Washington DC in the Thomas Matthew Crooks searches. It was also Huntsville, Alabama. He pulled up Huntsville for Tyler James Robinson. At 4 PM on September 9th—the day before the Charlie Kirk shooting—someone in Huntsville, Alabama searched Tyler James Robinson.

Coleman then drilled down specifically to the District of Columbia itself, excluding Maryland and Virginia suburbs. The signal on the night before the assassination was even stronger—strong enough to register significantly on the index in a concentrated geographic area.

The Plane Owner: Derek Maxfield

About an hour after the assassination, reports flooded social media about a plane that had allegedly turned off its transponder. The plane was owned by an LLC associated with a man named Derek Maxfield, and it had taken off from Provo, Utah, appearing to head toward Arizona before the transponder allegedly went dark.

Coleman makes clear he's not accusing Derek Maxfield of anything. He's simply reporting what Google Trends shows. When Coleman searched Derek Maxfield in the Washington DC metro area, he found searches on September 7th—three days before the shooting—and then nothing again until the name broke publicly with the plane incident.

Then Coleman checked Huntsville, Alabama. Again, a hit appeared. At 10 AM the day before the shooting, someone in Huntsville searched Derek Maxfield. Coleman also found searches in Utah on September 8th (two days before the shooting) and September 9th (the day before).

On the morning of the shooting, about three hours before Charlie Kirk was killed, there was another hit for Derek Maxfield in the District of Columbia.

The Plane's Tail Number

Coleman searched the plane's tail number: N8KG (November Eight Kilo Golf). Again, you can see where news broke the evening of September 10th and searches spiked. But in the weeks before, there were hits in Utah (where the plane was based) and in Arizona (where the plane appeared to be headed) days before the shooting.

Coleman then did something methodical: he excluded everything after September 1st to eliminate statistical noise from the shooting coverage. Looking back over 13 months in the Washington DC area, there was zero interest in this plane's tail number—until the week and a half before the shooting, when searches suddenly appeared.

He ran the same parameters for Utah: no data for 13 months leading up to the shooting, excluding the 10 days before. The exact same pattern. Then, disturbingly, Coleman noted on his live recording that when he checked the Washington DC data again, the hits appeared to have disappeared—raising questions about whether data was being cleaned up in real time.

Utah Valley University Searches

Charlie Kirk was assassinated at Utah Valley University. Coleman searched for the school in the Washington DC metro area over the three weeks leading up to the shooting. On September 2nd, someone searched Utah Valley University. On September 3rd, more interest. On September 7th—four days before the shooting—peak interest appeared. The next day, a little more interest, then it dropped back down.

Coleman finds this odd. It's probably a fine school with a beautiful campus, but it's not nationally known. Why would someone in Washington DC suddenly become interested in Utah Valley University in the days before a assassination happened there?

The Roommate: Lance Twiggs

Initial reports said Tyler James Robinson lived with his parents—his father was the one who turned him in. But within days, news broke that Robinson actually had a roommate named Lance Twiggs. Coleman describes both Robinson and Twigs as allegedly being involved in radical leftist groups.

Coleman searched Lance Twiggs and found two hits in the Washington DC metro area—but not recent. The searches appeared in January 2023 (almost three years before the assassination) and again toward the end of 2023 (almost two years before). Someone's radar had blipped on the roommate of the eventual assassin years earlier.

Coleman acknowledges this could be innocent—maybe a cousin visiting DC, maybe someone who took a romantic interest. But it's notable that someone in the DC area had searched for Lance Twiggs multiple years before his roommate would assassinate Charlie Kirk.

The Losee Building Building

The alleged shooter allegedly positioned himself on a building called the Losee Building. It's an unusually named building. Coleman notes that if you search just "Losi" nationally, you get some hits in Nevada where there's apparently a city or road with that name, but the rest of the country shows little interest. "Losee Building" gets even fewer searches outside Utah.

But if you're planning an assassination and looking for good tactical positions, you might Google the buildings around your target location. Coleman found that in mid-to-late spring, someone in the Huntsville, Alabama area showed keen interest in the Losee Building. That was the only hit, and Coleman had excluded the days around the shooting to eliminate statistical noise.

Then came what Coleman describes as "probably the wildest search." On September 8th—two days before the shooting—someone in the Washington DC metro area searched the Losee Building. Coleman's voice rises as he asks: "Why? Why on September 8th, two days before the shooting, is someone searching the Losee Building? Why? What is it they wanted to know?"

The Weapon: Mauser 98

Coleman searched for the rifle reportedly used: a Mauser 98. Over the month leading up to the shooting, there was no interest nationally until August 31st, when there was a small blip, and then a significant hit on September 7th—three days before the shooting. He found this was concentrated in Pennsylvania.

Coleman then searched the District of Columbia specifically and found a hit on August 27th, 2025—the only time in the month it was searched there. He expanded the search back six months. Still only that one hit. Back to April. Still only two hits total.

Then Coleman checked Huntsville, Alabama. One hit appeared. He tested this against other medium and large states to see if this was just random statistical noise. Tennessee had one hit. Ohio had one hit. But Arizona, Colorado, and Utah showed nothing. Coleman concluded there might be some statistical noise here, but the pattern of DC and Huntsville appearing repeatedly was becoming harder to dismiss.

Frank Turek and Other Searches

Coleman also searched Frank Turek, one of Charlie Kirk's associates who was allegedly present and whom some conspiracy theorists online speculated might have been involved. Coleman makes clear he doesn't believe Turek was involved—he actually tries to clear Turek's name through the data.

But the searches show hits in the Washington DC area in the weeks before the shooting. Coleman finds no hits in Huntsville for Turek, which breaks the pattern. He searches other states randomly—Colorado shows nothing, Utah shows hits, Texas shows a few hits (Turek may have had connections there), California shows nothing, Arizona shows nothing.

Coleman also notes searches for "Utah death penalty" appeared in the District of Columbia in the days before the shooting, though he doubts anyone planning to assassinate a public figure like Charlie Kirk would be deterred by death penalty laws.

The Timeline Question: When Did They Know?

Coleman addresses a critical question: when would anyone have known Charlie Kirk would be at Utah Valley University on September 10th? He asked the AI tool Grok, which reported the university first announced it on September 1st or 2nd—just over a week before. Charlie Kirk's own website and social media first mentioned it around August 27th.

But Coleman, who has experience planning large events, explains this doesn't make sense with the search timeline. Planning a tour stop takes months. You have to contact university chapters, get responses, plan regional logistics, coordinate with the university administration, arrange security, obtain permits, and organize the physical equipment—Turning Point USA traveled with truckloads of audio and security equipment.

Coleman estimates it could be six to nine months from initial planning discussions to the actual event. At some point, emails would go back and forth mentioning: "We can get on the Utah Valley University campus. We'll be in the little courtyard." If someone had access to those emails—whether through an inside source, a security breach, or government surveillance programs—they could have known months in advance where Charlie Kirk would be, possibly before Charlie Kirk himself knew.

The Huntsville-DC Pattern

The recurring pattern throughout Coleman's investigation is undeniable: Washington DC and Huntsville, Alabama. These two locations repeatedly show searches for names, places, and details connected to the assassination before they became public.

Coleman notes both locations house major FBI facilities—headquarters in DC and a massive facility in Huntsville. But he's careful not to draw definitive conclusions. These could be FBI agents. They could be other government employees. They could be private contractors. They could be foreign actors. They could be completely unrelated individuals with innocent reasons for their searches.

But the pattern persists across multiple unconnected search terms: Tyler James Robinson, Derek Maxfield, the plane tail number, Utah Valley University, Lance Twiggs, the Losee Building, the Mauser 98, Orem Utah. Over and over, Washington DC and Huntsville appear in the days, weeks, and sometimes months before the assassination.

On Making This Information Public

Coleman explains he consulted with several people—including names his audience would recognize, people who have advised presidents on national matters—about whether to go public with this information. He knew he was potentially spoiling his ability to ever use this investigative technique again, since now people would know about it.

But he concluded the information was too important to keep private. Someone was searching these names and locations before the assassination. Whether they were government agents, state actors, private individuals, or something else, Coleman believes journalists and law enforcement should be asking questions.

If he were the FBI, he'd want to know who was making these searches. If he were Utah State Police, he'd want to know. If he were the families of Tyler James Robinson or Lance Twiggs or Derek Maxfield, he'd want to know. Even Derek Maxfield himself should want to know who was searching his name in DC and Huntsville in the days before the shooting—maybe someone was trying to frame him for something he didn't do.

Coleman's Personal Reflection on Charlie Kirk

Coleman makes a striking admission: he never listened to Charlie Kirk's podcast. Kirk wasn't his brand of conservatism. Coleman doesn't listen to Sean Hannity, doesn't listen to Bill O'Reilly anymore, doesn't listen to Megyn Kelly or most right-wing podcasters. He has limited time with work and family.

If someone had asked Coleman on September 9th what he thought of Charlie Kirk, he would have said, "Take him or leave him." He'd occasionally enjoyed seeing clips of Kirk debating college students on YouTube or TikTok, but had no strong feelings either way. He'd never been to an event, never wanted to meet him, never followed his work closely.

But after seeing the video of the assassination—particularly the close-up footage showing the massive quantity of blood and the look on Kirk's face—Coleman felt an almost supernatural connection to him. His eyes watered, which he admits is rare for him. He immediately called his sister and told her not to watch the video, that it was too horrific.

Coleman believes this visceral reaction explains much of the national outpouring. It's similar to the John F. Kennedy assassination—when you witness such a horrific public slaughter, you identify with that person in a way you never could before. Kennedy's approval ratings weren't exceptional before his assassination, but he became one of the most beloved presidents afterward, partly because people witnessed his death.

On Political Violence and Consequences

Coleman addresses the disturbing man-on-the-street interviews circulating online where people say Charlie Kirk "deserved it" or "somebody had to do it." He emphasizes he has no problem with liberals—he actually loves AOC, though he disagrees with her on almost everything and wouldn't want her as president. His concern isn't with political disagreement but with the consequences of a mentality that accepts political assassination.

"If your speech that someone disagrees with is a reason to die, that doesn't matter what the political point of view being espoused is," Coleman explains. If it's morally acceptable to kill someone because you disagree with their words, then logically it's also morally acceptable for them to kill you because they disagree with yours. That's not a world anyone should want to live in.

Coleman says he didn't like it when people on the right joked about or seriously discussed assassinating Obama, Biden, or Bill Clinton. He sees leftist commentators and podcasters who say horrible things, but he doesn't want them dead. If it's right that Charlie Kirk should die because leftists disagree with him, then it's right that leftists should die because Kirk or his followers disagree with them. That logic leads to societal collapse.

He also addresses foolish talk on the right since the assassination about "grabbing guns" and violent retaliation. "You don't want to live in that world," Coleman warns. "You don't want to live in the world where people are going door to door shooting each other, hunting you down like dogs." When everybody's fighting, nobody survives long. We're not in that world—people are still going to grocery stores, churches, gas stations, gyms. That's not the reality, and we shouldn't invite it.

What Coleman Thinks Should Happen Next

Coleman carefully avoids drawing definitive conclusions from his data. He presents facts and patterns, but he won't claim to know who made these searches or why. However, he believes the patterns are disturbing enough that journalists and law enforcement should investigate.

The Google Trends data shows someone was searching for the shooter's full name, the roommate's name, the building location, the university, the alleged getaway plane and its owner, and the weapon—all before the assassination became public. These searches concentrated in two specific locations: Washington DC and Huntsville, Alabama.

Coleman emphasizes that more information is better than less. It's very early in the investigation—normally four days into a homicide investigation, the file book hasn't even been opened yet. But this is different because it's Charlie Kirk. The public deserves to know who had this information before the shooting, and why.

Coleman's Return to Podcasting

Coleman concludes by addressing why he stopped podcasting months ago. He made all his previous episodes private and went silent. He says viewers could probably guess why, and that's all he'll say. He wants to return to regular podcasting but will take a different approach—maybe not everything that comes to mind needs to be said out loud.

This particular episode brought him out of retirement because the information was too important. Four of the eight portraits on the wall behind him are of people who were either assassinated or survived assassination attempts. John F. Kennedy's assassination remains the most shocking ever recorded, partly because it was videoed and widely distributed, creating an unprecedented connection between the public and the victim.

Coleman believes the same phenomenon is happening with Charlie Kirk. The close-up video of his death is circulating widely, and people who previously had no strong feelings about Kirk now feel a deep emotional connection to him. They witnessed something horrific, and it changed them. That's why the outrage is so intense, why the investigation matters so much, and why Coleman felt compelled to share what he discovered—even at the risk of never being able to use this investigative technique again.
