PROVO, Utah – A law enforcement insider has confirmed to Fox News Digital that Lance Twiggs, who was both the roommate and romantic partner of Tyler Robinson—the alleged assassin of Charlie Kirk—is no longer receiving protection from the FBI.

The FBI has yet to publicly clarify the reasons behind the termination of Twiggs’ protection or provide any updates on Twiggs’ current whereabouts or whether there has been a relocation.

It is important to note that Twiggs has not been charged with any criminal activity.

Previously, Twiggs was moved to a townhome in St. George, Utah, after being asked to leave his parents’ residence. According to a relative, Twiggs, 22, was in the process of transitioning from male to female and had been living with his grandparents after being expelled from his family home at the age of 18.

He shared an apartment in southwestern Utah with 22-year-old Robinson, who’s accused of assassinating Kirk, the founder of Turning Point USA, on Sept. 10 at Utah Valley University (UVU) in Orem, Utah.
