Family of Tyler Robinson’s transgender lover speaks out for first time since Charlie Kirk assassination and reveals where he is now
The family of Charlie Kirk’s alleged assassin’s transgender girlfriend has revealed where she was living after she disappeared following the shocking murder.
Kirk, 31, was shot and killed in front of a crowd of hundreds of people while hosting a live debate event at Utah Valley University in Orem on Sept. 10.
Authorities claim Kirk’s alleged killer, 22-year-old Tyler Robinson, had a “left-wing ideology” and may have been “radicalized” online before being arrested for killing the MAGA influencer.
Prosecutors released text messages between Robinson and her live-in transgender boyfriend, 22-year-old Lance Twiggs, who apparently confessed to the murder.
Although no connection has been established between Twiggs and Robinson in the assassination, Twiggs has remained a mystery since the shooting.
Twiggs wasn’t found for weeks near the Utah apartment she shared with Robinson
Now, an unnamed family member of Twiggs has finally spoken out and revealed where she lives in an interview with NewsNation’s Brian Entin.
‘The first few weeks, because there were so many threats against his family and himself, my understanding is there was some FBI detail and they moved around a little bit, but not anymore. “He is with his family,” he said.

Twiggs was not charged with any crime and authorities said he was cooperating with the investigation, but the family member claimed he was not forthcoming about it.
‘When I first heard about how he was taken in and talked to by the police, I know they said he was very cooperative but they had to take him in and bring him in,’ he said.
‘He didn’t just walk in voluntarily and say, ‘Hey, I heard about this and I have some knowledge.’
‘He gave the items when they asked, but did not give any information until he had to.’
The woman said Twiggs and Robinson were promising young men corrupted by online culture.
‘They are both very smart. Lance was a concert pianist, his talent for piano music was unusual… That’s what I heard about Tyler, that he was very smart. “It’s a real shame that these children have so much potential and such a bright future,” he said.
‘From what I understand, being so antisocial, playing these games and being part of this group of misfits… they didn’t seem like they were in the real world.’
Robinson was charged with aggravated murder for the shooting, and prosecutors announced plans to seek the death penalty.

The accused assassin has not yet entered a defense and is fighting to have the prosecution removed from the case. KUTV reported.
His defense argued that the assistant district attorney’s adult child was present at the time of Kirk’s murder, creating a conflict of interest.
The prosecution acknowledges the adult child was there but argues there is no conflict of interest.
The judge has not yet ruled on the matter and Robinson is expected to appear in court again on January 16.
