Partner of Charlie Kirk Murder Suspect Disappears
Lance Twiggs, aged 22, is the live-in partner of Tyler Robinson, who faces charges in the murder of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. Twiggs has recently been reported missing from St. George, Utah. This disappearance follows the arrest of Robinson, who is accused of Kirk’s murder.
Background on Lance Twiggs
Twiggs moved in with Robinson in 2018 after being expelled from his Mormon family home. Recent activity shows that Twiggs’ Venmo account has received payments from his parents, indicating a potential reconciliation, despite their initial conflicts. Descriptions of these payments included “prescriptions” and “gas money,” with the last transaction occurring months before Kirk’s death.
Disappearance and Current Situation
- Twiggs reportedly fled their shared townhouse following Robinson’s arrest.
- Police found mail accumulating at the St. George residence, raising concerns about Twiggs’ well-being.
- Local residents have expressed shock, describing the neighborhood as quiet and familiar.
Jesse Riley, a neighbor, noted, “It’s a quiet neighborhood. You know your neighbor on your left or your right, but people are pretty isolated.” Despite the community’s unease, authorities confirmed Twiggs was in a “safe space very far away from St. George” to avoid public scrutiny.
Investigations and Revelations
A federal investigation into Tyler Robinson’s background has revealed no connections to left-wing groups. Sources have confirmed that Robinson appears to have acted alone, driven by a strong reaction to Kirk’s ideology.
Community Response
In the aftermath of these events, there has been a heightened police presence in the area. Local law enforcement continues to monitor the situation, focusing on both Robinson’s case and the well-being of Twiggs.
The circumstances surrounding the murder of Charlie Kirk and the mystery of Twiggs’ disappearance remain a point of interest and concern in the community.
