Two new reports suggest that Tyler Robinson, suspect in the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, and Robinson’s roommate, Lance Twiggs, might be just a little bit crazy.
Twiggs, Fox news reported today, was booted out of his home for being “problematic.”
Robinson, the Daily Mail reported yesterday, was involved in “furry” porn video games that involve half-human-half-animal characters engaged in myriad sexual activities.
Indicted for the 31-year-old Turning Point USA founder’s murder on Tuesday, Robinson confessed to the crime, authorities allege, on the Discord messaging system and in text messages to Twiggs.
Twiggs, who is “transitioning” to become a “woman,” was just 18 when his parents booted him out, a relative told Fox.
“[His father] thought he wasn’t being respectful and was problematic, so they kicked him out,” the woman told the network. “He then lived with [his grandparents] until he was 18 and graduated from high school.”
Twiggs also had “substance abuse issues,” along with an addiction to video games, and most struggled with his “gender identity.”
Yet that internal turmoil was less important than the other problems, the woman told Fox:
“But the real reason he was acting out was because he was using drugs and alcohol, and was addicted to gaming,” she said.
The relative also revealed her family member had “always tried to put on the act that he had changed.”
“He moved into a townhome and paid full rent, and there were other college roommates at the time,” the relative explained. “He was maintaining a job and able to pay rent, and was technically an adult,” she told Fox. Those roommates moved out.
Robinson moved in with Twiggs last year. They “were in a romantic relationship,” the relative told Fox.
That relationship is evident from the text message the two exchanged after the assassination.
Robinson refers to Twiggs as “my love.”
Yet the future “trans woman” wasn’t the only thing he loved, the Daily Mail revealed.
Reporter John Boswell was the first journalist to identify Twiggs. But he also got an eyeful of Robinson’s internet activity.
“Robinson was a Reddit kid,” Boswell said in a podcast. “A Reddit kid is someone who is chronically online. They have a lot of their friends online. It’s someone who is steeped in internet culture.”
In other words, such an individual doesn’t live in the real world, and many of that someone’s “friends” are people they have never met. They are images on a screen, if that.
“One of the things Robinson seems to have been part of is the furry community.… Furries are people who enjoy dressing up in fur suits,” Boswell continued.
The reporter explained that people involved in furry games have “alternative personas they call ‘fursonas’ … often an anthropomorphic character, part human, part animal.”
Boswell also said he found “disturbing stuff” on the furry sites. “They had all this pornographic material — part human, part animals in various stages of undress doing sexualised things,” he said:
He even had this gaming account where there was evidence he played a game that was kind of a furry homoerotic porn game.
There seems to be very niche areas he was getting into online.
Given what he told Twiggs after the assassination, Robinson’s involvement in a “furry homoerotic porn game” would be no surprise.
That aside, the state prosecutors’ indictment recounts the 22-year-old Robinson’s confession to Twiggs.
“You weren’t the one who did it right????” Twiggs asked in a text exchange.
“I am, I’m sorry,” Robinson replied, explaining that he “had enough of [Kirk’s] hatred. Some hate can’t be negotiated out.”
Robinson also confessed in a Discord chat with other users of the platform, The Washington Post revealed.
“Hey guys, I have bad news for you all,” the suspect wrote on Discord. “It was me at UVU yesterday. im sorry for all of this.”
Robinson faces a seven-count indictment that alleges aggravated murder, felony discharge of a firearm causing bodily injury, two counts of obstruction of justice, two counts of witness tampering, and one count of committing violence in front of a child.
The first six counts also included the aggravating factor of violence in front of a child and an enhancement for targeting Kirk because of his political beliefs.
Prosecutors are seeking the death penalty.
