Patel added that while some details are "known today," law enforcement agencies are still pursuing others "to ensure every possibility is considered."
"Our primary focus is to complete this investigation and deliver justice," Patel added. "To protect the integrity of the investigation and subsequent prosecution, we cannot release every piece of information we have to the public right now."
He also addressed questions swirling about a plane that allegedly turned off its transponder after departing near Orem, Utah, where Kirk was shot.
"We can share updates (about the plane) when answers are confirmed," Patel said. "After interviews with the pilot and consultation with the FAA, we determined the transponder was not turned off. Incomplete flight data in rural areas caused the apparent gap."
