What was said

"An ATF analysis of a bullet fragment recovered during Charlie's autopsy could not conclusively determine whether it had been fired from Robinson's alleged rifle. The defense says it may try to use that analysis to clear Robinson."

Forensic analysis by the ATF failed to conclusively match the bullet fragment from Charlie Kirk's body to Tyler Robinson's rifle, according to evidence emerging in the preliminary hearing. While experts note this is not unusual and does not prove innocence, the finding adds uncertainty to the prosecution's case. The defense is expected to use this forensic gap to argue Robinson may not be the shooter.
