Prosecutors on Tuesday made public text exchanges between accused gunman Tyler Robinson and his roommate, Lance Twiggs, which they say contain admissions and contemporaneous planning details. The messages, attached to filings available via the Utah state courts website, show Robinson instructing Twiggs to look under his computer keyboard where a handwritten note stated, “I had the opportunity to take out Charlie Kirk and I’m going to take it.” When the roommate reacted in disbelief, Robinson replied plainly: “I am. I’m sorry.” Robinson’s texts continue with operational details and expressions of remorse, according to prosecutors. He described hiding his rifle in a bush after the shooting and expressed concern about leaving fingerprints, writing that he had wrapped the weapon in a towel and worried whether it bore a serial number. At several points he urged Twiggs to delete their messages and told him to request a lawyer if questioned by police. Motivation, Method and Aftermath In the exchanges Robinson framed the attack as retaliation against Kirk’s “hatred,” telling Twiggs, “I had enough of his hatred. Some hate can’t be negotiated out.” He also discussed practical matters—retrieving the rifle from a previously prepared drop point and attempting to avoid detection amid police activity in the area. Twiggs repeatedly asked whether Robinson was joking or whether others had been detained; Robinson said police had temporarily detained other people while he tried to recover the weapon. Robinson’s texts indicate an intent to surrender while expressing worry for his roommate’s welfare. He wrote, “I’m gonna turn myself in willingly” and added, “You are all I worry about love,” urging Twiggs not to speak to media and to seek counsel if approached by law enforcement. Prosecutors have cited those messages as evidence of both admission and planning in their filings before the Utah courts. Court Process and Public Records The messages were lodged with the court as part of pre-trial disclosures and are now part of the public docket available on the Utah state courts website, where defence and prosecution filings are catalogued. Prosecutors contend the texts corroborate other evidence they have gathered; defence lawyers have not yet filed a full public response to the released exchanges. The court filings also set out attempts by Robinson to hide the rifle and to limit forensic traces by worrying about fingerprints and leaving the firearm wrapped. The release of the messages has intensified public attention on the case and renewed questions about motive, mental state and the influence of online communities. Media coverage has circulated excerpts from the texts; officials remind the public that the material is part of an active prosecution and any new evidence will be evaluated according to Utah law.
