Reports suggest that the partner of Charlie Kirk’s purported killer faced eviction from his home after a heated altercation with his father concerning their religious beliefs.

A close acquaintance of Lance Twiggs, the transgender partner of accused murderer Tyler Robinson, indicated that Twiggs became homeless during his high school years due to his refusal to adhere to the Mormon faith.

Braylon Nielsen, 19, told the New York Post that Twiggs would occasionally live with her family after he was kicked out by his parents.

“I truly cared for Lance. His parents forced him to leave, and he stayed with us. My family never saw eye to eye with his parents,” she explained, alleging that his rejection of Mormonism in his junior year led to his expulsion from the family home.

‘It was on and off. He was bouncing couches. He would live with us for a few months, but didn’t like taking up our couch. He would crash with friends.’

Twiggs attended Dixie Success Academy, which an accelerated program that allows students to graduate with an associate’s degree worth of college credit, according to the report.

Nielsen described Twiggs as a straight-A student, and social media posts viewed by the The Post showed he excelled at piano while in high school.

‘He had straight As. He was very hardworking,’ Nielsen said, ‘not a big partier […] He just took care of people.’

 

One social media post viewed by the outlet showed that Twiggs played Gershwin’s Prelude No. 1 in a 2020 recital, along with his brother, who played Chopin.

‘The kids music had been like a peaceful river flowing through our home for many, many years. I feel so grateful,’ his mother allegedly wrote in a now-deleted Facebook post seen by The Post.

However, some of Twiggs’ relatives said his relationship with family deteriorated and he became ‘detached [and] radicalized’.

The relative, speaking anonymously, said Twiggs had been struggling with gender identity, substance abuse problems, and was addicted to video games.

‘[His father] thought he wasn’t being respectful and was problematic, so they kicked him out,’ Twiggs’ relative revealed in an interview with Fox News .

‘He then lived with [his grandparents] until he was 18 and graduated from high school’.

‘But the real reason he was acting out was because he was using drugs and alcohol , and was addicted to gaming,’ she added.

Twiggs hasn’t been charged with any crimes, and authorities said he was cooperating with the investigation

Robinson now faces aggravated murder charges for fatally shooting conservative activist Charlie Kirk on September 10 at an event held by Turning Point USA at Utah Valley University.

The relative said that Twiggs moved into a townhouse with other college students before Robinson lived in the home.

The other roommates eventually moved out, leaving Twiggs and Robinson in the townhome together. The relative added that the two were in a romantic relationship.

In a separate interview, an anonymous relative told Fox News that Twiggs developed a ‘hatred’ for Christians and conservatives.

‘He hated us. He was not raised that way, but he, over the years, has become really detached [and] been radicalized,’ the relative said.

The relative added that Twiggs was ‘always angry’ and his behavior got worse over the last few years.

They also speculated that Twiggs may’ve influenced Robinson’s politics during their time living together.

‘I think Tyler got a whole lot worse in the year they have been dating. They are big gamers, and obviously they have that group that influences them as well as others. But my gut tells me [Twiggs] did more of the influencing,’ they said.

Twiggs was dragged into the investigation when Robinson texted him: ‘Drop what you are doing, look under the keyboard’.

Twiggs allegedly found a note that read: ‘I had the opportunity to take out Charlie Kirk and I’m going to take it’, prosecutors said.
