DNA allegedly belonging to both Tyler Robinson and Lance Twiggs was found on key pieces of evidence in the Charlie Kirk assassination case, adding a biological layer to the materials presented at trial.
Tyler Robinson, accused of assassinating conservative activist Charlie Kirk, apparently confessed to the killing in text messages and later in person, according to evidence shown at a preliminary hearing in Utah. The New York Times reported that prosecutors displayed messages in which Robinson told his roommate and partner, Lance Twiggs, "I am, I'm sorry" and "I had enough of his hatred."
Twiggs testified that Robinson cried after the shooting and acknowledged his guilt. Robinson then turned himself in to police a couple of days after the September 2025 killing, according to Radar Online.
Text Messages and Tearful Admissions Paint Guilt Picture
Prosecutors say Robinson sent a string of messages to Twiggs that read like a confession. The messages showed Robinson planning to get a rifle and describing steps to avoid leaving evidence, according to The New York Times. Robinson also wrote that he "had enough" of Kirk's views before the killing.
Twiggs testified in court that Robinson cried after the shooting and told him directly that he had done it. A video was also played in court showing Twiggs recounting Robinson's regret. When questioned in person, Robinson confirmed the messages were true, according to Red State.
Engraved Bullets and a Hidden Confession Note Found
The case goes well beyond text messages. Robinson allegedly asked Twiggs to lend him a Dremel tool — a small engraving device — to carve messages onto bullets before the shooting. That detail points to careful planning, not a spontaneous act, according to Radar Online.
Prosecutors also told the court that a handwritten note was found under Robinson's keyboard. The note said he planned to kill Charlie Kirk. Zero Hedge reported that Erika Kirk, Charlie Kirk's widow, has asked the Utah judge to release all evidence from the hearing to the public.
DNA Evidence and Discord Messages Widen the Case
Biological evidence also ties Robinson and Twiggs to the crime. DNA belonging to both men was allegedly found on key pieces of evidence, according to Radar Online. That adds a physical layer on top of the digital and verbal admissions already presented to the court.
Prosecutors also pointed to Discord and group-chat messages sent by Robinson. Twiggs confirmed those messages as part of the evidence, according to Head Topics. The judge ruled that the Twiggs interview video could be shown at trial, with some parts redacted.
Robinson and Twiggs Were Partners Living Together
Twiggs testified that he and Robinson were dating and sharing an apartment at the time of the killing. That close relationship made Twiggs one of the first people Robinson turned to after the shooting, according to Red State. It also gave prosecutors a direct witness to Robinson's state of mind before and after the crime.
Robinson surrendered to police within days of the September 2025 shooting. The preliminary hearing was held to decide whether the case would go to trial. Based on the evidence shown — messages, video, DNA, and a written note — the case against Robinson appears broad and layered, according to The New York Times.
