COURTROOM INSIDER | Roommate Video, Texts, Gun, Bullets & Other Bombshell Evidence Revealed in Tyler Robinson Prelim
Police interview footage and texts shown in court suggest Tyler Robinson planned the killing, while Charlie Kirk’s widow urged release of the exhibits.
- On Thursday, July 9, 2026, prosecutors played police interview footage of Lance Twiggs, the partner of murder suspect Tyler Robinson, before Judge Tony Graf, revealing Robinson's specific plans and admission regarding the assassination of Charlie Kirk.
- Robinson shot conservative commentator Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University on September 10, 2025; Twiggs, granted immunity, cooperated with investigators starting September 12, 2025, providing details on Robinson's behavior and the handwritten note found under his keyboard.
- Evidence presented in court included text messages where Robinson discussed retrieving his grandfather's rifle from a drop point, while Twiggs described bullets found at the crime scene engraved with the message, "Hey fas**st!".
- Defense attorneys Richard Novak, Michael Burt, and Kathryn Nester argued that releasing the interview and texts would prejudice the jury, but Charlie Kirk's widow, Erika Kirk, joined prosecutors in urging Judge Graf to allow the evidence to be shown in full.
- Per Twiggs, Robinson never spoke about Kirk before the crime but frequently expressed disdain for President Donald Trump and the Republican Party as the preliminary hearing concludes after five days of testimony.
