TLDR: Trans guy with mental health issues started dating shooter, likely influenced him into killing Kirk.
I’ve found it funny how the FBI has repeatedly stressed how totally, fully cooperative Lance Twiggs has been. Such a good boy…err tranny. So very very cooperative, unlike Tyler.
According to reports Tyler was generally a quiet normie type but changed when he met Lance. I’m assuming they moved in together about then too. They weren't just roomates and lovers, Twiggs family owned the house they both lived in so Lance was his landlord too.
Twiggs grandfather is a very well respected pediatrician in UT. His family is pretty high status in the Mormon community. There’s even videos of Lance as a kid giving piano recitals. Very wholesome family.
Reports have stated the family was concerned about Lance due to him being a mentally ill, drug using, gay tranny - the black sheep kid. It was claimed Lance got booted from his parents house at 18, but the house he was living in was owned by his family so Id assume they were supporting him. What did Twiggs do all day? We know Tyler was a training to be an electrician but nothing about Lance. Lance would have been more terminally online than Tyler, his footprint would be large. He probably dreamed of being like f1nnster.
Lance had a loooooong time to DFE and cover his tracks. He had at least 36 hours until images of Tyler were posted as the suspect. The video images resulted in Tyler’s parents turning him in, but Lance knew within an hour or two of the murder (if he didn’t know beforehand, which I think he likely did)
But Lance didn’t say boo until Tyler was in custody and the feds came knocking at his door.
Even one of Lance’s own relatives told Fox :
He hates conservatives and Christians,” Twiggs’ relative said of him. “He hated us. He was not raised that way, but he, over the years, has become really detached [and] been radicalized.”
“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 [the roommate] did more of the influencing,” the relative told Fox Digital.
I’d expect Lance’s family got the proper powerful local attorney to help him “fully cooperate” and try to avoid legal repercussions. Going to be awkward if the main guy who influenced Tyler is also the state’s key witness against him.
In one of the texts Tyler even says to Lance, “remember how I was engraving bullets” IDK about your household but Id be pretty curious if someone I lived with was engraving bullets in the living room.
I’m assuming Lance will be packed off to a nice inpatient psych/ rehab vacay by his family asap. I’m sure he’s been to them before. He’s probably got at least 2 or 3 more psychiatric labels as identities, besides being a tranny.
I’m waiting for Tyler to be labeled mildly autistic too.
