Utah authorities on Tuesday released the text exchange between Tyler Robinson and his transgender lover Lance Twiggs sent shortly after Kirk’s assassination.
Utah County District Attorney Jeff Gray announced seven charges against Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson. They will also be seeking the death penalty.
Robinson was charged with:
– Count 1: Aggravated murder (capital offense)
– Count 2: Felony reckless discharge of a firearm causing bodily injury
– Count 3: Felony obstruction of justice for hiding the firearm
– Count 4: Felony obstruction of justice for discarding the clothing he wore during the shooting
– Count 5: Witness tampering for asking roommate to delete incriminating messages
– Count 6: Witness temperating for demanding trans roommate stay silent, and not speak to police
– Count 7: Commission of a violent offense in the presence of a child
Tyler Robinson, 22, was taken into custody last Friday for assassinating TPUSA founder and conservative political activist Charlie Kirk during an event at Utah Valley University.
Robinson will be held without bail.
“I am filing a notice of intent to seek the death penalty. I do not take this decision lightly, and it is a decision I have made… based solely on the available evidence and circumstances and nature of the crime,” Utah County District Attorney Jeff Gray said during a press conference.
Jeff Gray released the chilling texts between Tyler Robinson and his “love” Lance Twiggs.

ABC’s Matt Gutman called the text messages between the evil man who murdered Charlie Kirk and his hate-filled transgender lover “touching.”
“So, it was this duality of someone who the attorney said not only jeopardized the life of Charlie Kirk and the crowd, but was doing it in front of children, which is one of the aggravating circumstances of this case. And then, on the other hand, he was, you know, speaking so lovingly about his partner. So a very interesting and, as Pierre said, riveting press conference,” Matt Gutman.
